IPL 2025, Match 32: DC vs RR - Playing XIs Status

In the Delhi Capitals squad, opener Jake Fraser-McGurk is struggling, and former South African cricketer Faf du Plessis' fitness is a concern. If Du Plessis manages to make a comeback on Wednesday, the Aussie youngster may have to sit. Although Karun Nair's IPL return and in-form KL Rahul have strengthened the DC batting line-up, the batting line-up still has to prove itself. DC require more help from the bowlers, especially from the fourth and fifth bowlers, while skipper Axar Patel is still waiting for his first wicket this season. 

Rajasthan Royals have some good batting potential, but the inconsistency is their major issue, especially from the top-order batters. RR bowlers are also struggling to perform consistently.
