Delhi Capitals (DC) will take on Rajasthan Royals (RR) in the 32nd match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 at Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi, on 16 April 2025 at 07:30 PM IST. Delhi Capitals Delhi Capitals' four-match winning streak was broken with a heartbreaking 12-run defeat against Mumbai Indians in the last match at Arun Jaitley Stadium. While batting first, MI posted 205 for 5 in their first innings with the help of Tilak Varms's half-century and a stunning match finish by Naman Dhir. Later, with the help of a surprising yet brilliant Karun Nair's 89-run knock, they came close to the victory, but some hiccups at the end prevented them from winning. Three run-outs in the death overs led to their batting collapse. However, they will look to rectify their mistake and bounce back when they face the struggling Rajasthan Royals at the same ground. Rajasthan Royals The Rajasthan Royals are struggling badly with their form. Not only their batting but also their bowling has been a major headache for the team. They suffered a disappointing 9-wicket loss against RCB in their last match, also their second consecutive defeat in the last three matches. RR posted 173 for 4 in their first innings while batting first but weren't able to restrict RCB under this total. Sanju Samson's side is looking to bounce back; the remaining matches for the team remain a crucial deciding factor for their qualification. Pitch Report The surface at Arun Jaitley Stadium is poised to offer help for batters. The match can be a run fest and is expected to help batters in the second innings as the pitch mostly remains flat and doesn't offer help to bowlers except for good-length balls. The teams will be eager to field first after winning the toss here.
