The Delhi Capitals (DC) are gearing up for the IPL 2025 season with a renewed sense of determination. DC will kick off their campaign on March 24 against the Lucknow Super Giants in Visakhapatnam.
Their first home game at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi is slated for April 13 against the Mumbai Indians. The season promises a series of thrilling encounters both at home and away.

The Arun Jaitley Stadium, located in the heart of India's capital, serves as the home ground for the Delhi Capitals. With a seating capacity of over 41,000, this historic venue has witnessed numerous memorable cricketing moments. The passionate home crowd provides an electrifying atmosphere, offering unwavering support to the Capitals throughout the season.
In the 2024 IPL season, the Delhi Capitals faced challenges, finishing in the lower half of the standings. Despite a roster filled with talent, the team struggled to find consistent form, leading to early elimination from playoff contention. This underwhelming performance has fueled the team's resolve to make a strong comeback in the 2025 season.
The 2025 season brings a revamped squad for the Delhi Capitals. Notable acquisitions include Australian pacer Mitchell Starc, secured for ₹11.75 crore, and English batsman Harry Brook. The team also made a significant move by signing KL Rahul, who is expected to take on leadership responsibilities. All-rounder Axar Patel remains a pivotal part of the squad.
KL Rahul, Harry Brook, Faf du Plessis, Karun Nair, Sameer Rizvi, Donovan Ferreira, Tripurana Vijay, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Tristan Stubbs, Ashutosh Sharma, Mukesh Kumar, Dushmantha Chameera, Ajay Mandal, Manvanth Kumar, Madhav Tiwari, Mitchell Starc, Jake Fraser-McGurk, T. Natarajan, Mohit Sharma, Darshan Nalkande, Vipraj Nigam
