IPL 2026: DC bring Kyle Jamieson, Dushmantha Chameera as RCB opt to bowl first – check full playing XI | Cricket News

NEW DELHI: RCB skipper Rajat Patidar won the toss, and opted to bowl first against Axar Patel’s inconsistent Delhi Capitals in Delhi on Monday. RCB went into the match with the same side and did not make any changes. However, Delhi Capitals made three changes to their playing XI from the last match. Jamieson and Chameera came in, alongside opening batter Parakh.“We will bowl first. This venue is a high-scoring ground, it will not make much difference, we will try to put them under pressure in the second innings. The most important thing is different players coming up and deliverying in different matches. We have played some good cricket and continue to carry that momentum. It is in the past, we are looking to play good cricket,” RCB captain Rajat Patidar said at the toss.Meanwhile, DC captain Axar Patel said, ” I would have fielded if I won the toss. The ground dimensions are small, the pitch also gets better, so we would have chased as well. In the IPL, you score 264 and loss, but it is a long tournament is long, we had a good game with bat and ball, if we had held our chances then the result would be different. You need to keep continuing doing the work, even our best fielders drop catches, so luck is not on our side but we can sit around thinking about it. We have two fast bowlers – Chameera and Jamieson are playing. We have to strike in the powerplay, though Mukesh has done well, he needs a break and we are bringing in international bowlers.” Teams:Delhi Capitals (Playing XI): Sahil Parakh, KL Rahul(w), Nitish Rana, Sameer Rizvi, Tristan Stubbs, David Miller, Axar Patel(c), Dushmantha Chameera, Kyle Jamieson, Kuldeep Yadav, T NatarajanRoyal Challengers Bengaluru (Playing XI): Virat Kohli, Devdutt Padikkal, Rajat Patidar(c), Jitesh Sharma(w), Tim David, Romario Shepherd, Krunal Pandya, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Josh Hazlewood, Suyash Sharma, Rasikh Salam Dar
