With final playoff spot on line, Mumbai meet Delhi in must-win clash
Gulf Today
|May 21, 2025
Considering the start they made to the Indian Premier League (IPL] 2025, not many people would have imagined Mumbai Indians (MI) would be taking on Delhi Capitals (DC) in a must-win clash for the final playoff spot at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Wednesday.
-
Delhi Capitals got off to a 4-O winning spree while Mumbai Indians won only one in five matches and were at the opposite ends of the points table.
So, here they are gearing up to face off for the fourth and final spot in the playoffs to join Gujarat Titans, Punjab Kings, and Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the final four for the knockout stages of the IPL 2095.
After that horrible start, the Mumbai Indians have made a grand comeback, fighting their way back to the top of the table at one time with a six-match unbeaten run. Delhi Capitals, on the other hand, went off the boil losing three matches, while a no result against Sunrisers Hyderabad did not help matters much.
Mumbai Indians are in fourth spot in the points table with 14 points from 12 matches, while Delhi Capitals have 13 points from as many matches. Both teams have one match more to play against Punjab Kings, but winning Wednesday's match will ensure MI a playoff spot while Delhi need to win both their matches to reach the knockouts.
