The playoff
If we talk about head to head record, then both the teams have faced each other 32 times in which Delhi capital has won 12 matches whereas Royal Challengers Bangalore have won 19 matches. In such a situation, Mumbai Indians will have an advantage in this match because they will be playing on their home ground for the fourth time in IPL 2025 and in the previous match won by super Overs against Rajasthan Royals.
The matches between the two teams are always tough. DC's team is looking in good form but DC's main batsmen need to take responsibility as they are getting out after getting set. For RCB, both openers Phil Salt and Virat Kohli have become a good form.
Total Matches Played: 32
DC Wins: 12
RCB Wins: 19
No Result/Abandoned Matches: 1
Despite RCB having the firepower of Phil Salt, Virat Kohli and Tim David, RCB's all-around strength and explosive players Kurnal Pandya and Liam Livinston give them the upper hand in this head-to-head contest. However, it’s always been a close battle, with both sides frequently trading blows in IPL clashes.
Recent Forms of Delhi Capitals and Royal Challengers Bangalore:
DC: W L W L W
RCB: W W L W L
As far as fantasy cricket is concerned, RCB might have the edge with their explosive batting lineup led by Rohit Sharma, SuryaKumar Yadav and Tilak Verma, and Ryan Reckelton but DC's balanced squad and the presence of all-rounders like Hardik Pandya and Naman Dhir make them a formidable opponent. Wankhede Stadium, with its high-scoring potential, might slightly favor the batting-heavy teams, so expect a run-fest.
No injury concern.
