IPL Live Score, DC vs RCB IPL Score: Shreyas Iyer, Shikhar Dhawan Help Delhi Capitals Post 187/5

Delhi Capitals have put up a score of 187/5 in their 20 overs against Virat Kohli's Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at the Feroz Shah Kotla in Delhi in Sunday's first IPL match. Winning the toss, DC skipper Shreyas Iyer opted to bat first. Prithvi Shaw (18 off 10 balls) started off on a positive note but was then dismissed by Umesh Yadav. Shreyas Iyer (52 off 37 balls) and Shikhar Dhawan (50 off 37 balls) then came together to put on a stable partnership, both eventually bringing up their respective fifties. Royal Challengers Bangalore were struggling to find a breakthrough, until Yuzvendra Chahal decided to have his say. He got Dhawan out by producing a thick top edge off his bat. Soon, he also got Shreyas Iyer to hole out in the deep. However, just as it looked like RCB would limit DC to a modest total, there was a last-minute carnage unleashed by Sherfane Rutherford (28* off 13 balls) to take the score even beyond 180. A win for DC, who are now 3rd on the IPL Points Table, will take them to 16 points, the cut-off thought to ensure entry to the playoff stage. With just three matches left, RCB have no room to let up and must continue playing out of their skins to carry on their late charge for the top four spots.
