IPL 2026: Delhi Capitals Keep Royal Challengers Bengaluru To 175/8 Despite Salt’s Explosive 63
Despite a blistering 63 off 38 balls from opener Phil Salt, laced with four boundaries and three sixes, RCB's innings stalled significantly in the second half as DC's bowlers conceded only eight runs in the final two overs while picking up two wickets. In all, DC conceded only 29 runs in the last five overs, while picking four wickets, with Lungi Ngidi, T. Natarajan, and Mukesh Kumar bowling sensational spells on a slow pitch.
Pushed into batting first, RCB had a brisk start. Salt looked dangerous from the get-go by carving Auqib Nabi Dar for a boundary in the very first over. Virat Kohli (19) joined the act with a signature aerial drive over mid-off against Mukesh Kumar, but his stay was cut short by Ngidi, as he mistimed a scrambled seam delivery to deep cover.
