RCB set a target of 175 runs for the first win in front of Delhi, but the Delhi team managed to score 151 runs at the loss of 9 wickets in the stipulated 20 overs and lost the match by 23 runs. After the defeat in this match, Delhi Capitals captain David Warner looked very disappointed and said that his team should have scored these runs easily but he lost three quick wickets due to which his team had to face defeat.
Warner said after the match, 'I said at the toss that we need to do all the disciplines well, but we lost three early wickets and we did not chase the target which should have been an easy chase. RCB started well with the ball, Siraj was brilliant once again. We did a good job bowling and fielding, the energy we showed was also fantastic. We have to go back, we have five days off, we have to keep a close eye on ourselves, we need to get better with the bat and build partnerships at the top of the order. It's all about getting off to a good start with the bat. Teams have come back well from this situation in the past as well and we can go ahead and do better.
At the same time, RCB captain Faf du Plessis was very happy with this victory and said after the victory, 'We needed this to bring back the confidence in the group. Especially the bowling group. It's not always easy to defend a score at Chinnaswamy, so the bowlers have a lot to be proud of. 175 is a good score here in the match. But there is some uncertainty with the new rule. Generally the first six overs are more important. The way we bowled was unbelievable. A lot of credit goes to our fast bowlers in the first six overs.
