DC vs MI Dream11 Prediction IPL 2025 Match-29, Team News, Pitch Report, Squad, Fantasy Teams

The Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi (popularly known as Feroz Shah Kotla) is all set to host its first fixture of Tata IPL 2025. The hosts and the only undefeated side of this season, Delhi Capitals, will welcome the 5-time champions, Mumbai Indians, for match no 29 of the competition.

Delhi Capitals have been unblemished so far with 4 wins from 4 games. They have already adopted the top gear and are cruising towards finalizing a place among the top 4. Be it batting, bowling, or fielding, the Capitals have been clinical in their approach and performed as one cohesive unit. Currently holding the second spot on the points table, a win here will propel them to the top of the table.

For the 5-time IPL champions Mumbai Indians, problems are aplenty. Having won only a solitary game so far out of 5, MI are placed 8th on the table. Big names like Rohit Sharma, Tilak Varma, and Hardik Pandya haven’t been at their best, which is denting their hopes of making it to the upper half of the table. The big names have to step up now, as it is high time. It would be interesting to see if the Mumbai Indians come up with a new plan and a new approach in this crucial encounter.

Let’s delve deeper into this post for DC vs MI Dream11 Prediction.

DC vs MI Arun Jaitley Stadium, New Delhi, Pitch Report

The Arun Jaitley stadium in Delhi offers shorter boundaries all around the ground. Batters relish their opportunity to score heavily with a brisk pace. With dew also being a factor in the second innings, bowlers find it tough to grab the ball with precision. However, spinners do play a vital role here, especially in the first innings, as the wicket tends to slow down as the match progresses. The team winning the toss may look to chase.

DC vs MI Team News and Expected Playing XI

DC Team News

• Should DC go for any significant changes after winning four in a row? Nah, not really!
• Jake Fraser-McGurk’s form is a bit of concern for Delhi. The Aussie has looked torrid so far in the four games and far away from what he was in the last season. The right-hander has an average of 44.40 at this venue as he has scored 222 runs from just 5 innings. He loves to bat at his home venue and would be hoping to return in form here.
• Axar Patel has been brilliant as a captain, but his bowling form has dipped. The all-rounder is yet to pick up a wicket in this season and needs to step up with the ball as well.

DC Expected Playing XI: Jake Fraser-McGurk, Faf du Plessis, Abishek Porel, KL Rahul (WK), Axar Patel (C), Tristan Stubbs, Ashustosh Sharma, Vipraj Nigam, Mitchell Starc, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohit Sharma
IMPACT: Mukesh Kumar

MI Team News

• The Mumbai Indians are struggling after back-to-back poor performances.
• Rohit Sharma has been in awful form. However, he has a decent record at this venue in the IPL, averaging 31.14 and has scored 436 runs in 14 innings.
• Jasprit Bumrah, Deepak Chahar and Trent Boult is a potent trio. They just need to come good as a unit for MI to perform better.
• With Will Jacks clearly out of touch with the bat, expect MI management to bring either Mujeeb or Corbin Bosch in the eleven.

MI Expected Playing XI: Rohit Sharma, Ryan Rickelton (wk), Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya (c), Naman Dhir, Mitchell Santner, Will Jacks/Corbin Bosch/Mujeeb-ur-Rahman/Deepak Chahar, Trent Boult, Jasprit Bumrah
IMPACT: Vignesh Puthur
