MI vs DC Match Prediction & Analysis The Wankhede will host a high-stakes clash this Wednesday as Mumbai Indians take on Delhi Capitals in Match 63 of IPL 2025 in what could be a potential decider. Mumbai are in fourth place with 14 points from 12 outings, while Delhi sit just behind with 13 from the same number of matches. If Delhi lose, they’re out—no second chances. Mumbai, on the other hand, punch their playoff ticket with a win. So, both teams have everything riding on this. TEAMS PREVIEW Mumbai Indians Preview Mumbai Indians are on the brink of sealing a playoff berth. Sitting on 14 points from 12 games, one more win would lock them in. If they lose, things get a bit dicey—they’ll need to win their last league match and cross their fingers for other results. That said, confidence should be high in the camp. They’ve taken six wins from their last seven. The top order’s finding form at the right time—Ryan Rickelton, Will Jacks, and Rohit Sharma are all getting runs. Rohit’s hit three fifties in his last five, Rickelton’s got two in his last three, and Jacks looked solid with one against GT in their last fixture. These three have been giving the side a solid start more often than not. The engine room, though, is where MI’s push is really coming from. Suryakumar Yadav is in unreal form—510 runs in 12 matches, averaging over 60 and striking at 170+. He looks set for another big knock. Tilak Varma is keeping the tempo high, while Hardik Pandya and Naman Dhir have chipped in with handy cameos under pressure. Pandya’s been handy with the ball too—13 wickets, though his economy’s just over nine. Deepak Chahar’s struck ten times but hasn’t quite closed out the death overs. Trent Boult has been useful both early and late, and Jasprit Bumrah looks like he’s heating up again with eight wickets in his last three. If he and Boult hit the mark late, MI could edge it. Delhi Capitals Preview It’s now or never for Delhi Capitals. A defeat in this match would knock them out of playoff contention. Their recent loss to Gujarat Titans didn’t just sting — it ended their top-two hopes, with their net run rate (0.260) dragging behind the rest of the top five. KL Rahul will have to lead from the front if DC is to put up a fight against Mumbai. He’s coming off a blazing unbeaten 112 off 65 balls versus GT and has already scored 493 runs in 11 innings this season. They’ll need another strong knock from him. Abishek Porel has held his own as well at the top, scoring 295 runs in 12 matches at a strike rate of 150. Axar Patel and Tristan Stubbs have helped steady things when the middle order has looked shaky, adding vital runs at tense moments. Ashutosh Sharma has added late firepower, helping the side stay on track during crunch situations. With Mitchell Starc ruled out of the tournament, DC will be counting on Dushmantha Chameera and Mustafizur Rahman. Mustafizur brings control and experience, and you can back him for an economical spell. However, Chameera tends to go for runs. Kuldeep Yadav has been dependable, grabbing 12 wickets while keeping things tight at 6.97 an over. Vipraj Nigam has picked up nine wickets but has been expensive, conceding at 9.45 per over. Axar’s steady spin could come in handy again on a surface like this. They may also consider swapping out T Natarajan for Mukesh Kumar, given Natarajan’s struggles with economy. Weather Conditions Wankhede usually leans in favor of batters, but there’s a short stretch early on where seamers can make things happen with the new ball. After that, the pitch tends to settle, and runs come easier. Spinners may find some grip during the middle overs, but overall, the surface should stay true, so pace-off deliveries might not be the smartest call. The weather in Mumbai looks humid and overcast, with the possibility of a thunderstorm or two, but a full game still seems likely. MI vs DC Pitch Report At Wankhede, first-innings scores usually hover around 170. RCB smashed the highest ever here with 235-1 against MI back in 2015. Both teams will be eyeing a score of around 200-210 to feel confident about their chances. Toss: To Bowl Chasing teams have come out on top in four of the six matches played at Wankhede in IPL 2025, suggesting that batting second has had the upper hand at this ground.
