The clash holds little importance in context of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2017. However, for Delhi Daredevils (DD) skipper Zaheer Khan, this will be a big moment. Match No. 56, the clash between DD and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), is set to mark Zaheer Khan’s 100th IPL game. Already 38 and having retired from international cricket in 2015, it is unlikely that Zaheer will continue playing competitive cricket post IPL 2017. In all likelihood, his 100th IPL appearance might be his last in IPL. Full Cricket Scorecard: Delhi Daredevils (DD) vs Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), IPL 2017, Match 56 at Delhi
