Delhi Capitals had a night to forget against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the IPL 2026 as they were bowled out for just 75 in 16.4 overs, their lowest total ever vs RCB in IPL history. Though they failed to break the record of lowest ever IPL total, there are many new unwanted records made today.

The disaster struck in the early hours of the match, with the RCB bowlers taking wickets at will. The power play overs in the match took their toll on the home team, who could not even manage to make the score reach 13 by the end of the power play which is now the worst ever power play score in IPL history.
