IPL 2025: Winless Delhi Capitals Take on Sunrisers Hyderabad in Visakhapatnam
Visakhapatnam(INDIA): March 30, 2025: The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 season is about to reach new heights as Delhi Capitals (DC) prepares yet another battle against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), in its 10th match of this season.
The day–night encounter on 30 March at the ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam, promises yet another exciting affair with both teams looking to pocket some crucial points.
Team Dynamics:
Delhi Capitals:
Delhi Capitals enter this match with extra motivation, having received an added boost with the return of KL Rahul from injury. In the deal, he is likely to bring depth and experience to the DC middle order.
They also need to ensure they don’t falter, as they have in their seam-heavy matches so far, so that top-order batting is not their Achilles’ heel.
DC will try to take advantage of the skills of players like Axar Patel and Mitchell Starc.
Sunrisers Hyderabad:
After their last outing, Sunrisers Hyderabad’s explosive batting order will be keen to make amends.
Based on previous match-ups, they are capable of scoring in bunches, which makes them dangerous.
Players like Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma would be key for SRH to get a big total.
Venue Significance:
The ground is known for being an important venue for the Delhi Capitals, but now also comes under the influences of Sunrisers Hyderabad, making the game interesting.
The pitch in this stadium is friendly towards the high scoring so an open high scoring contest is expected.
Key Points:
It’ll be a big match, with both teams looking tough to beat, and their fans will be flocking to see this one.
Both these sides seem evenly matched, as such, the analysts predict a closely-contested affair, with neither side being clear favourites to take the honours.
Hot and humid weather is expected, which could factor into player performance.
The match is going to be live on the Star Sports Network, while, online streaming will be done on JioHotstar.
