Earlier, Rajat Patidar smashed a 32-ball 52 and Will Jacks scored 41 off 29 balls as RCB posted 187/9 after being put in to bat. Patidar hit three fours and as many sixes in his breezy knock. Khaleel Ahmed (2/31) was the pick of the DC bowlers.
DC lost wickets up front and were left reeling at 30/4 in the fourth over. Stand-in skipper Axar Patel (57) fought hard and added 56 for the fifth wicket in the company of Shai Hope (29). Once Hope was dismissed by Lockie Ferguson, DC were never really in the hunt. Yash Dayal claimed 3/20 as DC were all out in 19.1 overs.
