Delhi Capitals (DC) occupy the bottom spot in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 points after failing to register a win in their first four games of the season so far.

Delhi Capitals Predicted XI vs Mumbai Indians, IPL 2023: Will Philip Salt Get A Chance?

With three wins on trot, Delhi Capitals are defintely off to a really poor start in IPL 2023. They will aim their first win of the season when they face Mumbai Indians at the Arun Jaitlley Stadium on Tuesday. Like MI, DC will also be expecting an improved show from their local talent. Delhi's top-order was 'Boulted' in the last game, raising questions about Prithvi Shaw's ability against fast bowling. He has been dismissed in different fashion -- pace, bounce and swing, in his three innings and there doesn't seem to be a quick fix to his technical issues.

Delhi Capitals Aim For Improved Batting Show Against Rajasthan Royals

Battered and bruised by raw pace in back-to-back matches, Delhi Capitals' batting unit is likely to find some breathing space on a featherbed when the side takes on Rajasthan Royals in an afternoon IPL match, on Saturday. Mark Wood and Alzarri Joseph have scarred the likes of Prithvi Shaw and Sarfaraz Khan in DC's line-up in the first two games. And when these talented but low on confidence willow wielders face an attack comprising Trent Boult, KM Asif and Jason Holder, they would have to negotiate speed in mid 130 kmph, which is right up their alley.
