DC vs SRH Match Prediction & Analysis
Delhi Capitals (DC) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) face off in the 10th match of IPL 2025 in Visakhapatnam. DC kicked off their campaign with a tight victory at this very venue, which should give them a morale boost. SRH, on the other hand, started strong but stumbled in their second outing with an unexpected home loss. Theyβll be eager to bounce back, but Delhi wonβt go down without a fight. This one promises to be a thrilling battle.
RECENT PERFORMANCE
TEAMS PREVIEW
Delhi Capitals Preview
Delhi Capitals kicked off their IPL 2025 campaign with a nail-biting victory over Lucknow Super Giants. Chasing 210 in Visakhapatnam, they found themselves struggling at 113-6 in 12.3 overs. But a stunning rescue act from Ashutosh Sharma (66* off 31) and young gun Vipraj Nigam (39 off 15) carried them over the line in the final over with just one wicket in hand.
For their next game, Delhi will be looking for more from their top and middle order. Jake Fraser-McGurk, Faf du Plessis, and Abishek Porel couldnβt quite deliver in the previous match but have to do better here. Du Plessis has the experience to anchor an innings, but McGurk is unpredictableβheβll either blast a quickfire 40 or fall cheaply.
On a positive note, KL Rahul is expected to return after missing the first game. His presence in the middle brings much-needed stability to a batting lineup that looks fragile. The team will also be counting on Ashutosh Sharma to continue his heroics as a finisher.
Sunrisers Hyderabad Preview
After a strong opening win against Rajasthan Royals, Sunrisers Hyderabad looked set to continue their scintillating form. However, their momentum was halted by an unexpected loss to an understrength Lucknow Super Giants. Batting first on a favorable Hyderabad surface, SRH could only manage 190-9, a total LSG chased down with ease in just 16.1 overs.
Travis Head (47 off 28) was the only batter to get going, while the rest struggled, falling in quick succession while trying to attack every delivery. This is the risk of SRHβs high-risk approachβwhen their top three fire, they can blow teams away with massive scores. But if they donβt, the batting collapses fast.
Abhishek Sharma is a crucial player in this lineup. If he gets through the initial overs, he can take the game away. Heinrich Klaasen was unfortunate to be run out in the last match, and he looks due for a big innings this time.
Weather Conditions
This pitch tends to favor spinners, with the ball keeping low and making things tougher for batters in the second innings. That being said, recent matches at this venue have seen high totals, with batters making the most of favorable conditions.
The weather will be hot and humid in the afternoon, but it will cool down a little during the evening. There is no forecast of rain so we will get a full match.
DC vs SRH Pitch Report
Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium usually sees teams batting first put up around 168 runs. However, last season painted a different picture with the pitch offering plenty for the batters. The two matches played here saw first-innings scores soar to 191-5 and an astonishing 272-7. In IPL 2025βs first game at this ground, Lucknow Super Giants set a target of 209-8, but Delhi Capitals successfully chased it down in the final over. Both teams will be eyeing a score of over 200 runs in this match. If SRH bat first, however, even 250 can be breached.
Toss: To Bat
This is an afternoon game, and batting first would be the preferred option for both teams.
