Preview of upcoming MI vs DC IPL 2025 match

The Delhi Capitals (DC), led by Axar Patel, are set to take on Mumbai Indians (MI), under Hardik Pandya captaincy on May 21, at the Wankhede Stadium in what is an extremely high-stakes encounter. With the only remaining playoffs spot on the line, both the teams will be going all out to secure a victory.

MI hold a slender one-point advantage over DC and a win tonight will confirm their qualification to the playoffs, eliminating DC. On the other hand, a win for DC will take them another step closer to qualification as they will still have to secure a win in their next game against PBKS to confirm their playoff berth.
