As Mumbai Indians (MI) and Delhi Capitals (DC) are set to clash in a high-stakes match 63rd of IPL 2025, the weather is expected to play spoiler in this virtual quarter-final game in Mumbai.
MI vs DC Match Preview
As the IPL reaches its final stretch, only two teams—MI and DC—remain in contention for the fourth spot in the playoffs. A win in this match would guarantee MI a place in the top four. Their star-studded lineup led by Hardik Pandya, has clicked perfectly in all departments after a slow start, makes them heavy favorites to win. Suryakumar Yadav has found form at the right time with some match-winning knocks, while Jasprit Bumrah has been exceptional with the ball, consistently delivering breakthroughs. Rohit Sharma and Ryan Rickelton have also played vital roles at start and adding firepower in the death overs. However, in case of a washout, things could become a bit complicated for the home side. In their previous clash, MI stunned DC in a close encounter and never looked back.
DC, on the other hand, has had a poor run in the second half of the league. After winning four consecutive matches at the start of the season, DC has managed to secure just one victory in their last five outings. While batter KL Rahul has shown flashes of brilliance but rest of the batters delivered a flop show. Inconsistency in the middle order and death bowling has hurt them. A win is crucial for the visitors; otherwise, they will have to rely on other results to keep their playoff hopes alive, in case of a rain spoiler.
