TATA IPL 2026, Match 39: RCB defeated DC by nine wickets in just 6.3 overs: In a dominant performance, Royal Challengers Bangalore defeated Delhi Capitals by nine wickets in just 6.3 overs during their IPL clash at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. Delhi suffered a dramatic batting collapse and were bowled out for just 75 runs in 16.3 overs. RCB chased down the target effortlessly, thanks to a blistering partnership between Virat Kohli and Devdutt Padikkal. Kohli also achieved a historic milestone, becoming the first player to cross 9,000 runs in IPL history.
Delhi’s innings began on a disastrous note, losing wickets at regular intervals, including a shocking collapse of six wickets for just eight runs. David Miller and Abhishek Porel tried to stabilize the innings with a brief partnership, but the effort fell short. A temporary interruption caused by a dust storm added to the drama, though play resumed quickly. For RCB, Josh Hazlewood led the bowling attack with four wickets, while Bhuvneshwar Kumar chipped in with three.
