Top 3 Battles to Watch Out for in RCB vs DC IPL 2025 Clash
Virat Kohli vs Mitchell Starc: A Clash of Titans
When Virat Kohli and Mitchell Starc face off, fireworks are guaranteed. Starc has been a force to reckon with this season, scalping nine wickets in just three matches, including a sensational five-wicket haul. On the other hand, Kohli has been in sublime form, amassing 164 runs in four matches with two half-centuries. The stats add an extra layer of intrigue: Kohli has dominated Starc in T20s, scoring 87 runs off 49 balls at a blistering strike rate of 177.55, without ever being dismissed. Will Starc finally crack the Kohli code?
KL Rahul vs Josh Hazlewood: A Battle of Precision
KL Rahul’s masterclass against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the last match, where he scored 77 off 51 balls, showcased his class and composure. However, Josh Hazlewood, with eight wickets in four matches, is no pushover. In their four IPL encounters, Rahul has managed 44 runs at a strike rate of 137.50, falling to Hazlewood only once. This duel between Rahul’s elegance and Hazlewood’s accuracy will be a treat for cricket purists.
Rajat Patidar vs Axar Patel: The Middle-Overs Chess Game
Rajat Patidar has been a revelation this season, scoring 161 runs in four matches, including two fifties. Axar Patel, though wicketless so far, remains a key player in the middle overs. Patidar’s ability to accelerate the game makes this battle crucial. He has scored 21 runs off 13 balls against Axar at a strike rate of 161.53, with just one dismissal.
