    RCB have a 12-1 win-loss record against DD in their last 14 matches.

    Pitch report

    High scoring contest on the cards

    The Feroz Shah Kotla has been the most batting friendly wicket in the IPL this season.

    Teams have scored at a rate of 9.36 per over.

    The pitch at the Kotla doesn't offer much bounce and is said to favor spinners.

    We expect plenty of drama when the likes of Amit Mishra and Chahal come onto bowl.
