Mumbai Indians are on the brink of sealing a playoff berth. Sitting on 14 points from 12 games, one more win would lock them in. If they lose, things get a bit dicey—they’ll need to win their last league match and cross their fingers for other results.
That said, confidence should be high in the camp. They've taken six wins from their last seven. The top order's finding form at the right time—Ryan Rickelton, Will Jacks, and Rohit Sharma are all getting runs. Rohit’s hit three fifties in his last five, Rickelton’s got two in his last three, and Jacks looked solid with one against GT in their last fixture. These three have been giving the side a solid start more often than not.
The engine room, though, is where MI’s push is really coming from. Suryakumar Yadav is in unreal form—510 runs in 12 matches, averaging over 60 and striking at 170+. He looks set for another big knock. Tilak Varma is keeping the tempo high, while Hardik Pandya and Naman Dhir have chipped in with handy cameos under pressure.
Pandya’s been handy with the ball too—13 wickets, though his economy's just over nine. Deepak Chahar’s struck ten times but hasn’t quite closed out the death overs. Trent Boult has been useful both early and late, and Jasprit Bumrah looks like he’s heating up again with eight wickets in his last three. If he and Boult hit the mark late, MI could edge it.
Suryakumar Yadav has hit 13 sixes 6 matches at Mumbai this season and is averaging 2 sixes per match. In a must win game for Mumbai Indians, you can bank on Suryakumar Yadav to come good hit over one maximum against Delhi.
Suryakumar Yadav has scored 238 runs in 6 matches, averaging 59.50 at Mumbai this season. He has hit two half centuries and has been consistent at Wankhede this season. But he hasn't had a great time against Delhi at Wankhede where he has scored 55 runs in 3 matches and averages just 19. We back Surya to come good in this crunch game against Delhi and score over 33 runs.

It’s now or never for Delhi Capitals. A defeat in this match would knock them out of playoff contention. Their recent loss to Gujarat Titans didn’t just sting — it ended their top-two hopes, with their net run rate (0.260) dragging behind the rest of the top five.
KL Rahul will have to lead from the front if DC is to put up a fight against Mumbai. He’s coming off a blazing unbeaten 112 off 65 balls versus GT and has already scored 493 runs in 11 innings this season. They’ll need another strong knock from him. Abishek Porel has held his own as well at the top, scoring 295 runs in 12 matches at a strike rate of 150.
Axar Patel and Tristan Stubbs have helped steady things when the middle order has looked shaky, adding vital runs at tense moments. Ashutosh Sharma has added late firepower, helping the side stay on track during crunch situations.
With Mitchell Starc ruled out of the tournament, DC will be counting on Dushmantha Chameera and Mustafizur Rahman. Mustafizur brings control and experience, and you can back him for an economical spell. However, Chameera tends to go for runs. Kuldeep Yadav has been dependable, grabbing 12 wickets while keeping things tight at 6.97 an over.
Vipraj Nigam has picked up nine wickets but has been expensive, conceding at 9.45 per over. Axar’s steady spin could come in handy again on a surface like this. They may also consider swapping out T Natarajan for Mukesh Kumar, given Natarajan’s struggles with economy.
Axar Patel has hit 15 sixes in 12 matches this season, averaging more than one six per match. He has provided the much needed impact in the middle overs with his big hitting this season and in a must win game for the Capitals, expect Axar to come out all guns blazing and we back him to hit at least one six against the lethal bowling lineup of Mumbai Indians.
KL Rahul scored a superb century (112 runs) against Gujarat Titans. He is the Capitals leading run-scorer with 493 runs in 11 matches, averaging 61.62. At Mumbai against Mumbai Indians, Rahul has scored 503 runs in 7 matches and averages a staggering 125.75. Given his current form and record against Mumbai Indians, we back KL Rahul to score over 30 runs.

Wankhede usually leans in favor of batters, but there's a short stretch early on where seamers can make things happen with the new ball. After that, the pitch tends to settle, and runs come easier. Spinners may find some grip during the middle overs, but overall, the surface should stay true, so pace-off deliveries might not be the smartest call.
The weather in Mumbai looks humid and overcast, with the possibility of a thunderstorm or two, but a full game still seems likely.

Average TurnAt Wankhede, first-innings scores usually hover around 170. RCB smashed the highest ever here with 235-1 against MI back in 2015. Both teams will be eyeing a score of around 200-210 to feel confident about their chances.
We back the home team Mumbai Indians to win the coin toss in match 63 of Tata IPL 2025.
Chasing teams have come out on top in four of the six matches played at Wankhede in IPL 2025, suggesting that batting second has had the upper hand at this ground.
Both Mumbai Indians and Delhi Capitals have a lot riding on this clash. A slip-up could really hurt Mumbai’s chances of staying in the playoff race while Delhi would be eliminated with a defeat. Delhi have looked out of sorts recently, struggling to deliver in any area. Mumbai, on the other hand, have hit their stride at the right time, winning six of their last seven. They seem better put together at the moment, and with home conditions at Wankhede in their corner, Mumbai look like the smarter choice going into this game.
Back Mumbai Indians as the winners of this contest.
