Delhi Capitals continued their impressive run in IPL 2025 with a dominant six-wicket victory over Royal Challengers Bengaluru, extending their winning streak to four matches. Despite the team’s unbeaten run, mentor Kevin Pietersen emphasized the importance of staying focused on the bigger picture and not getting carried away by the current momentum. Pietersen reminded everyone that the IPL is a marathon, not a sprint, and the biggest games are still to come in May.
The match saw KL Rahul anchoring the chase with an unbeaten 93 off 53 balls, guiding Delhi to victory alongside Tristan Stubbs. Young spinner Vipraj Nigam also impressed with a stellar performance, sharing four wickets with Kuldeep Yadav to dismantle Bengaluru’s middle-order.
Delhi Capitals now sit second in the table with eight points, level with Gujarat Titans but with a game in hand. On the other hand, Royal Challengers Bengaluru are third, having suffered their second loss at home. Despite their home struggles, RCB have won all their away matches so far and have six points from five games.
Pietersen’s message of caution and celebration resonated with the team as they look ahead to the challenges that lie ahead in the tournament.
