There was a bit of a scare for KL Rahul, Delhi Capitals‘ wicketkeeper-batsman, during practice when he was hit by a ball delivered by Mukesh Kumar. Raising worries about his presence in the big game against Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium, the good news is that he is expected to be fine for the Wednesday night clash.
In the IPL 2025 points table as of now, DC is sitting at fifth behind five-time champions MI. They must have a win to stay in the race as a loss will mean knockout for them and a guaranteed playoff spot for MI. Rahul has been a beacon for DC this season, scoring 493 runs in 11 games at a strike rate of 148.04, including a ton and three fifties. He was bought in last year’s mega auction for Rs 14 crore.

One of the team officials, Jindal, has expressed his concern about the weather. Apparently, there is a forecast for heavy rainfall in Mumbai, which puts forth the possibility of cancellations for the game. He added, “Just like the RCB versus SRH game was moved from Bengaluru for consistency, I’m hoping tomorrow’s match can be relocated since we’ve known for a while about the rain prediction.”
