IPL 2025, Match - 63 | MI vs DC | Fantasy Tips, Prediction & Preview

Mumbai Indians (MI) will lock horns with Delhi Capitals (DC) in the 63rd game of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. Both teams have a chance of qualifying for the playoffs by virtue of a win in the next two games that the two sides are scheduled to play in this year's tournament.

Mumbai Indians have had a very roller-coaster-like campaign so far. They won only one out of their first five games, losing to CSK, GT, LSG, and RCB, while winning only against KKR. But then started their six-match winning streak, where MI defeated DC, SRH, CSK, SRH again, LSG, and RR. This was followed by a loss to GT. With seven wins, five losses, 14 points, and the best net run rate in the league in 12 matches, the Indians are fourth on the points table.

On the other hand, Delhi Capitals had quite the opposite start to the season. DC won their first four matches, beating LSG, SRH, CSK, and RCB. This was followed by a loss to MI, a win over RR in the Super Over, a defeat to GT, and a victory over LSG. In their last four games, Delhi has lost against RCB, KKR, and GT, while their match against SRH was washed off. With six wins, one washout, five losses in 12 matches, the Capitals are fifth on the points table.
