DC vs MI Pitch Report and Weather Condition

It will be the first match in this venue this season. It was the highest-scoring ground in IPL 2024 with an average first-innings score of 235 in the five games. In the last season, out of the 10 full innings, 200 was crossed 8 times and the other two scores were also very close to 200.
The pitch offered even bounce and a flat surface favourable for stroke play. With shorter boundary dimensions, batsmen are expected to find it easier to clear the ropes. If a similar pitch is there for today’s match, a run-fest can be expected.

The temperature during the game is anticipated to range between 30°C to 33°C, with moderate humidity levels around 28-39%. The skies are forecasted to be clear, and there is no significant chance of rain, ensuring an uninterrupted match. Additionally, the dew factor is expected to be low, minimizing its impact on the game's outcome.

DC vs MI Team News, Injury Update

Delhi Capitals
DC's squad is largely fit, with no major injuries reported. However, Faf du Plessis and KL Rahul were the notable absentees in the last training session. Sameer Rizvi replaced du Plessis' absence in Chennai a game ago, but it is unlikely that DC will change their winning combination for their first home game at Delhi.
KL Rahul is the leading run-scorer against MI in IPL with 950 runs in 18 innings at an average of 79.16 and a strike rate of 135.
DC bowling has the best economy rate in death overs (8.51) this season, and they also bagged two wickets on average in the powerplay. Axar Patel has good records against Rohit Sharma in IPL and he could bring himself in the powerplay to topple the MI top order. Mitchell Starc and Kuldeep Yadav are also in good form, and they bagged 9 and 8 wickets respectively.

Mumbai Indians
As Jaspreet Bumrah returned to the squad, there were no reported major injury concerns for the Indians.
The form of MI's top order, including Rohit Sharma, Ryan Rickleton, and Will Jacks, has been an issue for the team. The bowling unit is also going through a rough patch. Their PowerPlay average of 51.83 is the second-worst in IPL 2025, and in death overs also, they are leaking runs heavily. However, the return of Bumrah is the only silver lining MI has right now. Skipper Hardik Pandya and the new discovery Vignesh Puthur are currently in good form, while the former already bagged 10 wickets this season, including a fifer.
