DC vs RCB, IPL 2023: Tough task to win all games, says Delhi Capitals’ bowling coach James Hopes | Cricket News – Times of India
“We know we have to win all of our five games to qualify for the playoffs. It’s a tough ask, but we’ve won three of our last four games. There is confidence within the group. We certainly expect more from our batters, but there’s still hope and fight in this team, which one will see in our next game,” Hopes said.

Delhi Capitals will take on Royal Challengers Bangalore at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Saturday.
Hopes said DC will look to restrict RCB to a “manageable” score.
“We need to control the run rate in the middle overs. We are a good death bowling unit and start well with the ball. We know that RCB’s batting order is top-heavy. And if we can cause trouble early on, then we can restrict them to a manageable score,” the coach said.
When asked about all-rounder Mitchell Marsh’s availability for the game against RCB, Hopes said, “Mitchell Marsh is fit and good to go. He’s training with the team. He was unwell ahead of the last game, but he is preparing for the next game.”
