Jitesh Sharma, the wicketkeeper-batter for the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), has expressed his faith in the team and their progress in the competition. In the IPL 2025, the Bengaluru-based team has won three of its four games, all away from home. This demonstrates the team’s potential for the current campaign.
Regarding their forthcoming matchup with the Delhi Capitals (DC) at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, Jitesh Sharma said that while DC has been “relying on three players” this season, RCB has had contributions from all of its players in the majority of their games.
With no losses to date, DC is presently atop the standings. The club has had an incredible season as they attempt to continue their winning streak under the leadership of Axar Patel. In the meantime, RCB needs to exercise caution in the forthcoming encounter because they have already lost one home game, against the Gujarat Titans (GT).
“We have the advantage because we have won the tough games and played away games,” Jitesh Sharma stated.
According to the Hindustan Times (HT), Jitesh Sharma stated, “RCB has made a strong start to IPL 2025, defeating defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders in their opening match at Eden Gardens before defeating Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians — two powerhouses of the league — on their home turf.”
Also, everyone has contributed to our batting lineup. However, I believe that DC is depending on three players. It will therefore be a worthwhile challenge,” he continued.
Shake-up of the IPL points table on the cards
In addition, the IPL points table may change following today’s match. In addition to being the only team in the competition without a loss this year, DC will continue to top the standings if they win. On the other hand, RCB will move up the table with eight points and get closer to the playoffs if they win. Given the nature of the competition thus far, a new champion may emerge this season.
