DC vs KKR Pitch Report (Credit: BCCI)
Delhi Capitals (DC) will take on Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the 48th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2025) at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi, on Tuesday, April 29, 2025. Delhi Capitals' captain Axar Patel has impressed everyone with his leadership skills, and that has reflected in their performance this season. Having started the tournament with four wins in a row, the Capitals were in a dominant position early on in the tournament. But with three losses in the last five games, they find themselves standing fourth in the points table in IPL 2025. A win against KKR would get them back to winning ways and take them one step closer to the playoffs.
KKR, led by Ajinkya Rahane, has had a mixed tournament so far with three wins and five losses. The washout in the last game against the Punjab Kings (PBKS) didn't help their cause. KKR, from here on, will have to win their remaining five matches to give themselves a chance to qualify for the playoffs.
Having won 18 out of the 34 matches played against DC in IPL, KKR would aim to extend that lead on Tuesday. Delhi have won 15 overall, including four coming at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. Out of the 18 wins, KKR have won five in Delhi.
Pitch Report:
The pitch in this season has been a high-scoring one, barring the last game between Delhi Capitals and Royal Challengers Bangalore. Mumbai Indians posted a mammoth total of 205 for 5 in the first game. The second game saw Delhi Capitals reach 188 for 5 against Rajasthan Royals, with the hosts winning the Super Over.
