Sun Apr 27 12:10:00 UTC 2025: ## Kohli Eyes Redemption as RCB Faces DC in Delhi Showdown

**NEW DELHI** – Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) will face Delhi Capitals (DC) on Sunday, April 27th, at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in a highly anticipated IPL 2025 clash. The match marks a rematch for RCB, seeking revenge after a previous defeat at the hands of DC, where KL Rahul led DC to victory with a stellar performance.

All eyes will be on RCB captain Virat Kohli, playing on what is essentially his home turf. Kohli boasts an impressive record at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, having amassed 483 runs in 10 innings, averaging 69.0 with a strike rate of 146 and a highest score of 99.

His overall record against DC is even more formidable. Kohli leads all players with 1079 runs against the franchise in 31 innings, averaging 49.1 and boasting a remarkable 10 half-centuries – his highest against any IPL team.

While Kohli’s overall form is strong, his performance against specific DC bowlers will be crucial. His past records against players like Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Mitchell Starc, T Natarajan, and Mohit Sharma reveal varying degrees of success.

Furthermore, Kohli is on the cusp of several personal milestones. He needs just one six to reach 300 sixes in T20s for RCB, 17 runs for 500 IPL runs at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, and 104 runs to reach the 8500-run mark in the IPL overall. This high-stakes match promises a thrilling contest between two strong teams, with Kohli’s performance potentially deciding the outcome.
