IPL 2022 Updated Points Table, Orange Cap and Purple Cap: RCB climb to third spot, MI remain at bottom

With the win against Delhi Capitals, RCB moved up to eighth points from six matches, the same as Gujarat Titans and Lucknow Super Giants but were placed third with a lower net run rate.

Josh Hazlewood claimed 3/28 after Dinesh Karthik and Glenn Maxwell set the platform with attacking half-centuries as Royal Challengers Bangalore defeated Delhi Capitals by 16 runs in Match 27 of IPL 2022 on Saturday (April 17).

Hazlewood bowled with superb control and prised out three middle-order wickets to restrict Delhi Capitals at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. He got good support from Mohammed Siraj (2/31) and Wanindu Hasaranga, who removed the dangerous David Warner (66) as Delhi Capitals could manage only 173/7 in 20 overs, chasing RCB's 189/5 build on attacking half-centuries by Dinesh Karthik (66 not out) and Glenn Maxwell (55).

With this win, the Royal Challengers moved up to eighth points from six matches, the same as Gujarat Titans and Lucknow Super Giants but were placed third with a lower net run rate.

Earlier on Saturday, Mumbai Indians lost their sixth consecutive match of the IPL 2022 as they were defeated by LSG by 18 runs. With the loss, MI remain at the bottom of the points table.
