RCB vs DC | Twitter abuzz as Delhi Capitals' fielders fumble easy catches granting Jacks-Patidar a series of lifelines
Fielding is not just about stopping the ball; it's about saving runs and building pressure on the opposition. Unfortunately, Delhi Capitals couldn't replicate this against Royal Challengers Bengaluru, as their fielders endured a spell of sloppy fielding coupled with several dropped catches.
The fielding debacle began in the ninth over bowled by Kuldeep Yadav, with Axar Patel and Shai Hope missing straightforward catches, visibly frustrating the Indian spinner. The troubles continued as Tristan Stubbs failed to hold onto a simple chance in the 10th over when Will Jacks mistimed a shot towards extra cover. To compound matters, Delhi's stand-in skipper dropped another catch, giving Patidar yet another lifeline at cover. In totality, the home side missed four easy catches within the gap of three overs.
As the flurry of poor fielding unfolded, the Twitterverse was left in shock by the Capitals' uncharacteristic display.
What's going on?

I think it's RCB whose matches are getting #Fixed. So many Catch dropped by PBKS that day, helped RCB to put a High Total. And Delhi Capitals are repeating the same script.
