DC vs MI Match Prediction & Analysis Delhi Capitals take on Mumbai Indians at home in Match 29 of IPL 2025 this Sunday night. DC are on a roll with four wins in a row and now sit second on the table. They haven’t lost a game yet this season and look well put-together. MI, on the other hand, have struggled—just one win from five outings has left them in eighth place. Based on current form, Delhi clearly have the upper hand. TEAMS PREVIEW Delhi Capitals Preview Delhi Capitals are rolling this season. Four wins from four, 8 points in the bag, and a tidy NRR of +1.278 puts them second on the table. Their latest outing saw them ease past Royal Challengers Bengaluru by 6 wickets, chasing 164 with 13 balls left. It wasn’t all smooth sailing—DC were struggling at 58 for 4 in the 9th over. Then KL Rahul (93* off 53) and Tristan Stubbs (38* off 23) turned it around with a ruthless 111-run stand off just 55 balls. Rahul’s been the game-changer—185 runs in three innings at a strike rate of 169.72. He’s been calm, calculated, and explosive when needed—exactly what DC needed to solidify their batting. Jake Fraser-McGurk hasn’t quite clicked yet, but anyone who watched him last season knows he just needs one clean hit to flip a game. Ashutosh Sharma is making sure the lower order doesn’t fade—his clean striking in the final overs has already tilted a couple of games. Mumbai Indians Preview Mumbai Indians have had a tough run this IPL season. They’ve managed just one win so far and dropped four games, including a 12-run defeat at home against RCB while chasing 222. That said, they did fight hard in that chase—Tilak Varma smashed 56 off 29, and Hardik Pandya hammered 42 off just 15, but it wasn’t enough. One of MI’s main concerns is their inconsistent top order. Will Jacks and Ryan Rickelton have had a few good moments, but nothing that really turned a game. Rohit Sharma hasn’t hit his stride either, so expectations around him are low for now. Suryakumar Yadav has been one of the few bright spots—199 runs from five innings at an average of 50 and a strike rate north of 150. He’ll be central to how MI go in this one. Tilak and Hardik finding form again gives them more options. Pandya’s also been doing the job with the ball, picking up 10 wickets at an economy of 8.57. Deepak Chahar has been steady too, with four wickets and decent control in his spells. Boult continues to be a threat early on with the new ball. Weather Conditions The pitch at Arun Jaitley Stadium tends to be flat and quick to settle under lights. Expect a true surface where stroke-makers enjoy value for their shots, especially the square of the wicket. Spinners might get some grip as the game wears on, but it’s rarely dramatic, so expect batters to dominate the proceedings. The weather in Delhi will be warm and humid, but clear of any rain. DC vs MI Pitch Report The average first innings score at Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium sits at 170, but things got wild there last season. In just five games, teams crossed 200 eight times, with Sunrisers Hyderabad smashing 266-7 against Delhi Capitals—the highest of the lot. Another high-scoring game could be on the cards, though conditions this year haven’t offered many flat tracks. Both sides will likely aim for something in the 200-220 range. Toss: To Bat All five matches played at Arun Jaitley Stadium in IPL 2024 were won by the team batting first. Going by these numbers, its clear batting first is advantageous on this venue.
