Delhi Capitals remaining matches 2025 News

Delhi Capitals’ IPL 2025 playoff hopes are hanging by a thread after a heavy defeat to Gujarat Titans. To stay in contention, DC must win their remaining two matches against Mumbai Indians and Punjab Kings, ideally by large margins to boost their Net Run Rate. However, qualification also depends on favorable results from other teams. With their playoff odds now below 20%, DC face a must-win clash against MI on May 21. The final game vs PBKS could decide their fate. While mathematically possible, Delhi’s path to the top four is extremely narrow and reliant on both performance and luck.

Delhi Capitals remain in the IPL 2025 playoff race with 13 points from 11 games. To qualify comfortably, they must win all three remaining matches against PBKS, GT, and MI, which would take them to 19 points. Even two wins (17 points) could be enough, but their Net Run Rate (currently +0.362) will play a crucial role in case of a tie. A single win leaves their fate to other results, while losing all games eliminates them. Axar Patel’s leadership, smart tactics, and big individual performances will be vital as every match ahead is a virtual knockout for Delhi.
