DC have only played one match so far in the league as they faced Lucknow Super Giants earlier this week. The Capitals, after winning the toss, opted to bowl first. Mitchell Marsh and Nicholas Pooran scored brilliant half-centuries as the visitors posted 209/8 in their 20 overs. In reply, the Axar Patel-led side lost four wickets under the powerplay. However, a 48-run partnership between Tristan Stubbs and Ashutosh Sharma brought them back in the run chase. Later, Vipraj Nigam's late cameo and Ashutosh's composure till the end handed the side a narrow one-wicket win with three balls to spare. Notably, star batter KL Rahul will be back in the playing XI after missing the first game due to the birth of his first child.
Speaking of Sunrisers Hyderabad, the side won their first match of IPL 2025 by 44 runs against Rajasthan Royals at their home in Hyderabad. An impressive batting display by Travis Head, Ishan Kishan, Heinrich Klaasen, and Nitish Kumar Reddy powered the side to a huge total of 286/6. Later, their decent bowling efforts helped them restrict the Royals to 242/6, winning the game by 44 runs. After a bright start, SRH hit a roadblock when they clashed with the Lucknow franchise. The Rishabh Pant-led side bowled well to keep the former champions to 190/0 on a batting track in the first innings. Marsh and Pooran played phenomenal innings to help the away team win by five wickets with 23 balls to spare.
