Delhi Capitals will begin their IPL 2025 campaign against Lucknow Super Giants at the Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium, Visakhapatnam on Monday. Delhi would look to clinch their maiden title and Axar Patel will lead them for the first time.
DC could miss the services of KL Rahul, who could miss the first two matches for the birth of his first child. Delhi has already suffered a huge blow after Harry Brook decided to pull out of the tournament.
Delhi has a bit of inexperience when it comes to finishing the innings with bat and thus they would want Sameer Rizvi and Ashutosh Sharma to be at their best.
