DC's bowling woes: Bangar calls for changes vs RCB

Sanjay Bangar, a former Indian all-rounder, has advised Delhi Capitals (DC) to make strategic changes to their playing XI for their upcoming IPL 2026 fixture against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB).

Bangar recommended that Dushmantha Chameera should replace the injured Lungi Ngidi in the bowling attack. He also urged DC to reinstate spin-bowling all-rounder Vipraj Nigam into the team, citing a lack of variation in their current pace bowling, especially during the powerplay.

Discussing opener Pathum Nissanka, Bangar suggested that while two overseas pacers might not be necessary on the Arun Jaitley Stadium pitch, the next match is critical for Nissanka. He described it as a potential 'make-or-break' game for the batsman, who has scored 147 runs at an average of 21 in seven matches this season.
