A third of the way into the league phase of Season 18 of the IPL, only one team boasts an all-win record. That will be on the line when Axar Patel’s Delhi Capitals lock horns with Royal Challengers Bengaluru in a heavyweight clash on Thursday night that will test the resolve and character of both sides.
The Capitals have regrouped superbly after finishing sixth last season, helmed superbly by Axar, who has eked the best out of his versatile squad. In his endeavour towards a push for the playoffs, he has terrific support from Faf du Plessis and KL Rahul, who have both led their countries in all three formats.
