Delhi Capitals vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru IPL 2025, Highlights: RCB clinched top spot in the ongoing IPL with a six wicket win over DC at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Sunday. Chasing 163 for the win, Krunal Pandya blasted a 47-ball 73 not out as RCB achieved the target with nine balls to spare. Virat Kohli also hit his sixth half-century of the season to claim the Orange Cap momentarily, but struggled during his 51-run knock of 47. KL Rahul top-scored with a 39-ball 41 but DC lost wickets in regular intervals before Tristan Stubbs' 18-ball 34 lifted them to a competitive total of 162 for 8. Bhuveshwar Kumar (3/33) and Josh Hazlewood (2/36) snapped three and two wickets respectively, while Krunal Pandya (1/28) and Yash Dayal (1/42) accounted for one wicket each to restrict DC.

DC vs RCB Live: 50 up for Kohli!
A 45-ball 50 for Kohli! Hasn't enjoyed batting as much but made the most of his stay in the middle, steering RCB close to the target. However, Krunal has been the main man today.

April27202522:53 (IST)
DC vs RCB Live: Dropped!
Dropped! Starc thought he had Krunal there but Porel drops it while charging down from deep midwicket. Starc wants to take the bails off once the ball is returned to him, but he loses the ball and it goes away, and there's an over throw

DC vs RCB Live: Krunal brings up his fifty!
50 up for Krunal, his second in the IPL. Spoils Axar's over with a boundary off the last ball. Comes out of the crease and then goes down on a knee to sweep that away into the gap, wide of deep fine leg for four.

April27202522:42 (IST)
DC vs RCB Live: Krunal on the charge!
Krunal is timing the ball like a dream! Smokes this overpitched delivery over covers. He is into the 40s and has gone ahead of Kohli, who is still finding it hard to pick out gaps

April27202522:36 (IST)
DC vs RCB Live: Six runs!
Excellent release shot from Krunal! This was much needed with the RRR nearing 11. Releases some pressure. Kohli is fired up at the other end! This might give him some confidence as well.

DC vs RCB Live: Kohli breaks the shackles!
Kuldeep misses his length and Kohli pounces on it. Rocks back and smashes it square on the leg side. There is no one out there to cut that. Much needed boundary for RCB.

April27202522:20 (IST)
DC vs RCB Live: Another tidy over!
It's time for timeout! Meanwhile, Krunal is undergoing a concussion test. He was hit on the head by a vicious bouncer from Chameera. The RRR is just under 10 for RCB.

DC vs RCB Live: Goes down the ground!
Smashed over the bowler's head. What a shot from Krunal. Over pitched and he clears his front leg and hits it straight back. It's a no ball as well. Another chance to open his arms

April27202522:02 (IST)
DC vs RCB Live: What an over!
Strong end to the powerplay for DC! RCB are 35/3 with Kohli batting with Krunal Pandya. Interesting choice from RCB to promote Krunal and not sent someone like a Jitesh.

Another wicket for Axar Patel! Devdutt Padikkal is out! This is a massive over from Axar Patel. Padikkal has played it on his stumps and departs for a two-ball duck. It was an arm ball from Axar. RCB are in some trouble here.

DC vs RCB Live: Innings break!
An excellent bowling display from RCB despite the expensive 18th and 19th overs. Just 162 runs on the board from DC. However, they will fancy their chances. All to play for in the second innings

Stubbs takes down Dayal! 19 runs of the 19th and DC are now chasing over 170. RCB have been penalised for slow over rate and they will only have four players outside the circle for the last over.

DC vs RCB Live: Big over for Delhi!
Expensive over! 17 off Hazlewood's fourth and DC have a glimmer of hope for a 160-plus total. Dayal will bowl the 19th while Bhuvi has another over left.

April27202521:03 (IST)
DC vs RCB Live: Sound of the timber!
Bhuvi takes 2 in the same over. Cleans up Ashutosh as well. DC in a spot of bother. What a recovery from him after that thrashing in the Powerplay. Rattles the leg stump with an off-cutter

April27202520:51 (IST)
DC vs RCB Live: Excellent bowling so far!
108/4 with just five remaining! Rahul has only managed run-a-ball 33. Suyash finishes off with excellent figures, albeit not a single wicket for him. Devdutt Padikkal replaces him straightaway for fresh legs

DC vs RCB Live: 100 up for Delhi!
Helps it behind square on the leg side for four. Makes the most of the pace. That will bring up the 100 for DC. Just six overs to go after this. Anything over 160, and DC will have the chance to defend this.

DC vs RCB Live: Slashed hard!
Cut hard past backward point! Length ball angled across, Rahul drives with the open face and it just beats the diving man. Much needed boundary for DC. Runs have dried up after Porel's wicket.

Krunal Pandya is into the attack! Replaces Hazlewood. Spinners from both ends now for RCB. Spinners have done better as compared to the pacers at this ground this season.

IPL 2025 Live: Porel on the charge!
Pulled over fine leg! 2nd six of the over and Porel has taken Bhuvi to the cleaners. Length ball down leg and Porel plays that pick-up shot to perfection. What a start for DC. Porel continues to score quick in the Powerplay

IPL 2025 Live: What a shot!
Heaved away through midwicket! This is full around off and Porel muscles it along the ground between midwicket and square leg. Top shot. This one races away for a boundary. Decent start for the home side

IPL 2025 Live: Four runs!
Flicked off the pads! Full on leg, hint of swing in, and Porel clips it in the vacant fine leg area. Good start for DC. That was a bad ball from Bhuvi.

Faf returns for the first time after April 10. He will open with Abishek Porel. Bhuvi to get us underway with the new ball. Meanwhile, at the Wankhede, Mumbai Indians have completed the double over LSG to make it five wins on the trot
