How we made this Rajasthan Royals vs Delhi Capitals toss prediction

We do not predict who wins the coin flip itself; that is genuinely 50/50. We predict what the toss winner will choose to do. For this match, our pre-toss call was made in the article body before the toss happened. The result above shows whether the captain actually followed our predicted decision.

RR vs DC toss prediction FAQ

Who won the RR vs DC toss?

Rajasthan Royals won the RR vs DC toss and chose to bat first.

What did the toss winner choose in RR vs DC?

Rajasthan Royals chose to bat first. Our pre-toss call was field first — the captain went the other way.

How does the toss affect the RR vs DC match odds?

Meaningfully. Sawai Mansingh Stadium favours chasing (teams batting second win 63% here), so our model shifts the match win probability by about 7 percentage points depending on which side ends up chasing — with evening dew adding to the chase advantage under lights. A pre-toss match price averages both branches, so the toss result itself can create or kill value on the match market.
