Guwahati: The Rajasthan Royals-Delhi Capitals match in the 16th season of IPL will set new records and milestones in the math books. Rajasthan Royals Malayalam skipper Sanju Samson also has an advantage. If he hits five sixes today, Sanju will complete 250 sixes in the T20 format. Sanju has 244 sixes in children’s cricket. Rajasthan Royals’ star batsman Jos Buttler has a double feat waiting for him in the match. If he scores 20 more runs, Buttler will reach 9500 runs in T20Is.
Buttler’s current score is 9480 runs. Jos Buttler, who has 2904 runs in IPL, can complete 3000 runs if he scores 96 runs. But it is known that Buttler will not play today. Buttler injured his finger while fielding in the match against Punjab Kings. The star needed rest for a week. Chahal was last match to surpass Lankan legend Malinga in the list of all-time leading wicket takers in IPL. Dwayne Bravo has 183 wickets while Chahal has 171 wickets. Rajasthan Royals bowling coach Lasith is third with 170 wickets.
The headache of the team management is who to play if Buttler is out. Joe Root is more likely to be the opener. If not, Devdut Patikal may be dropped into the middle order. Another player may play instead of KM Asif. Dhruv Jural is likely to be an impact player even today.
Rajasthan Royals: Yashashvi Jaiswal, Devdut Patikal, Sanju Samson (captain, wicketkeeper), Joe Root, Shimron Hetmayer, Ryan Parag, Jason Holder, R Ashwin, Trent Boult, KM Asif, Yuzvendra Chahal.
Delhi Capitals: Prithvi Shah, David Warner, Riley Russo, Rovman Powell, Axar Patel, Sarfaraz Khan/ Yash Dul, Abhishek Poral, Aman Hakeem Khan, Kuldeep Yadav, Antich Norje, Mukesh Kumar.
