Two teams who are hanging on a thread to qualify for the playoffs are all set to lock horns at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. We are talking about two of the most famous cities in India, Delhi and Mumbai. The 5-time champions Mumbai Indians are all set to host Delhi Capitals in match 63 of Tata IPL 2025.
Mumbai Indians, placed 4th with 7 wins and 5 losses from 12 games, have 14 points to their name. They need to win only one of their remaining two games to confirm a spot in the playoffs. If they win this one, they will have 16 points to their name and will secure a berth in the playoffs, with Delhi Capitals getting eliminated.
On the other hand, Delhi Capitals need to win both their remaining games to secure a playoff berth. They can manage to book their spot in the top 4 with only one win from the remaining two, but they have to rely on the result of the MI vs PBKS match, wherein they would want MI to lose. However, they need to win this fixture at any cost to keep their playoff hopes alive. As of now, they stand 5th with 6 wins, 5 losses, and a rain-abandoned game from 12 matches. They have 13 points to their name.
Let’s delve deeper into this post for the MI vs DC Dream11 prediction.

MI vs DC, Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai, Pitch Report
The Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai is known for its batting-friendly surface, offering true bounce and excellent stroke play conditions. Fast bowlers can extract early movement, but as the match progresses, batting becomes easier. Dew is expected in the second innings, making chasing preferable. Spinners might find some grip later in the game, but overall, the pitch favors aggressive batting.
A score of 200+ will be considered competitive, given the nature of the surface. However, rain might play spoilsport, with an 82% chance of showers during the match.
