It is time for the “Go Green” initiative in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026. The defending champion, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), will be seen in a green jersey in their next game. They will lock horns with Delhi Capitals (DC) on Saturday afternoon.

This contest is slated to be held at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru at 3:30 PM IST. RCB are placed second on the table after a dominating display of performance. They had a great last game against LSG and will carry the momentum with them.

DC have lost two in a row. They have looked good in patches but failed to perform in the pressure moments. DC need a quick relook at their plans, because another loss will put them behind in the playoffs race.

GT vs KKR: Pitch Report

After two high-scoring games, the last match was played on a tricky wicket, which was gripping more. But we can expect a good wicket batting in this game.

The bounce has always been consistent here, and shorter boundaries make it tough for the bowling side. The last game saw dew in the second innings. Hence, we might see both captains looking to bowl first.
