Delhi’s weather on April 13, 2025, is expected to be warm and clear, with evening temperatures around 22-26°C, moderate humidity, and a 41% chance of rain, ensuring uninterrupted play. The pitch at Arun Jaitley Stadium is a surface conducive to batting, and the boundaries are short. The pitch will provide pace and bounce in the initial overs of the innings, but as the match goes on, it will slow up and become more suited for spinners like Axar Patel (DC) and Krunal Pandya (MI). As dew sets in during the game, which most likely will help the team's chasing, a par score can be estimated at 180-200.
The Delhi Capitals go into the battle hoping to take advantage of their home fans, with KL Rahul's solidity in batting and Tristan Stubbs' power hitting hoping to attack big scores off MI bowling. Mumbai Indians, powered by Hardik Pandya's all-rounder genius and Jasprit Bumrah's menacing pace, will seek to overpower with aggressive hitting from Rohit Sharma and Tilak Varma. With the pitch favoring runs but offering bowlers a window, DC’s spinners could challenge MI’s middle order, while MI’s pace attack tests DC’s top order. Expect a high-scoring thriller, with powerplay aggression and death-over-smarts electrifying the Delhi faithful.
