Delhi Capitals (DC) will lock horns with Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in match 48 of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL 2025) season on Tuesday, April 29. After registering four successive wins, DC has stuttered a bit as they have suffered three defeats in their last five games. However, the good news is that they are still placed fourth on the points table with 12 points.
On the other hand, KKR is placed seventh on the points table, winning just three games of the nine games that they have played. Consistency is what the Ajinkya Rahane-led side will be seeking going ahead in the second half of their IPL 2025 season. However, time is very short for any more slip-ups, as they need to win at least four of their five games left this season. Batting has been a big letdown for the defending champions, as barring Ajikya Rahane and Angrish Raghuvanshi, none of the others have looked convincing.
Andre Russell and their ever-reliable finisher Rinku Singh's lack of runs in the lower middle order has cost them a lot of games this IPL 2025 season. The duo has to fire in unison if KKR would like to go deep in the T20 tournament.
DC vs KKR Pitch Report
Traditionally, the pitch at the Arun Jaitely Stadium favors batters more than bowlers. However, in the last DC vs RCB game, the pitch was a lot on the drier side. Dew also plays a massive role here, so teams would likely opt for chasing after winning the toss. 180 runs is the average first innings score in the Delhi ground.
DC vs KKR Weather Report
Rain is not expected to play spoilsport in the DC vs KKR match in Delhi. The temperature is set to hover between 38 and 40 degrees, and the humidity levels are set to be 70%.
