MI vs DC Live Score, IPL 2025: Mumbai Indians vs Delhi Capital, Possibility of Rainfall is likely to spoil the playoff fight in Wankhed
The equation is simple for Mumbai. Win this game, and they are closing the door at mathematical possibilities. Anything less, and the playoffs become a mucier. On the other hand, Delhi must win to survive. But for them, time could not be worse. With just two wins in his last eight matches, he is quite submerged as his condition. Mitchell Starc’s absence hurt, and his bowling, especially in the death overs, lacks cutting.
However, the rain threatens to play splespports. With 85% probability of rainfall, there is a real concern about the completion of the match. Already, Mumbai will expect that history will repeat itself.
KL Rahul remains the beacon of Asha of Delhi. In Wankhede, with an average of over 63 average and no dismissal by Deepak four, he is a man watching. Nevertheless, the capitals have struggled with stability, especially at the top. Seven separate opening combinations have produced the lowest average among all teams this season.
Mumbai is comparatively settled. Suryakumar Yadav and Rohit Sharma have distributed continuously except Exer Patel, which makes a favorable match-up. Jasprit Bumrah and Trent Bowlt lead to bowling.
From the perspective of scheduling, Mumbai may gain slight lead. His last league game comes after Delhi wraps, allowing better clarity to what is needed. Nevertheless, coach Mahela Jayawardane has made it clear: “It is under our control … to be in a great position.”
For Delhi, the pressure is immense. Bowling coach Munaf Patel clearly accepted: “There is no other option but to win.”
Historically, MI has dominated the rivalry, out of which 20 out of 20 won, and took a 7–3 lead at home. Interestingly, his current playoff push began after defeating DC in reverse stability.
As the curtain arises on this victory, with war, stakes, emotions and unpredictability, a dose of the drama of rain, promises an unforgettable evening in Vankhede.
