Rajasthan Royals (RR) vs Delhi Capitals (DC) IPL 2026 Playing 11 Today Match, Squad, Players List: Riyan Parag’s Rajasthan Royals face Axar Patel’s Delhi Capitals in match 43 of the Indian Premier League 2026 at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Friday. The hosts are coming off a heady victory against the Punjab Kings in the previous encounter, while the Delhi Capitals took a thumping against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru. Rajasthan’s openers are in red-hot form, spurred mostly by the teenager everyone’s talking about, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi. But they need their middle order to fire a bit more.
Rajasthan skipper Riyan Parag’s form is still a concern, and he will be hoping to get some runs against the Capitals.
When it comes to the Capitals, they need to take the previous game out of the system. Although it is a humbling defeat, they would want to treat it as a one-off day. However, that is not how sides operate, but if they press the panic button and start making wholesale changes, this might be the start of the slippery slope for the Capitals.
