IPL 2025: Delhi Capitals vs Mumbai Indians – Match Preview

Delhi Capitals will lock horns against Mumbai Indians in the 29th match of the ongoing Indian Premier League at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi on Sunday. So far, Delhi is the only unbeaten team in the tournament and they would look to carry the good show.

Delhi has ticked the right boxes with both bat and ball. Their spin trio of Vipraj Nigam, Kuldeep Yadav, and Axar Patel have been right on the money. But the form of Jake Fraser-McGurk is a concern for the team. KL Rahul has batted with freedom and he is going to hold the key for DC.

On the other hand, Mumbai Indians have struggled to get going in the tournament. MI have managed a solitary win in five games and they must come up with an improved show. MI openers – Rohit Sharma and Ryan Rickelton – have failed to provide a good start to team.

Jasprit Bumrah made a return to action after a long time and it was a positive for MI that the gun fast bowler consistently bowled above 140 kmph. However, Deepak Chahar has failed to hit the right areas and hasn’t found much swing with the new ball.

Head to Head: Matches: 35, Won by MI: 19, Won by DC: 16
