Delhi’s capitals, after a spectacular start in IPL 2025, have lost their way to some extent in the campaign, climbing them on top of the numeral table. In his last five matches, DC lost three, while one of his matches was washed away. It has left DC led by Exer Patel with 13 points out of 11 sports. While they are still in the playoff race, the fifth place is not in a great place with many other teams.
Akash Chopra, a former India and Kolkata Knight Riders opener, analyzed his show so far.
“Your batting is not firing. You have lost faith in Jake Fraser-Macgurk. Faf du Plessis has hardly played one or two knocks. Karun Nair has played a knock. Abishk Porl has played two-and-a-half knock. KL Rahul has played some knocks. However, after boils, he, he has played a knock. Chopra said on his YouTube channel, “He should not have played a pant on him.
“Where is your replacement for Brook? They have not taken one, and will not get it if they do not take it in the next two days. This story has ended for them.”
After the Delhi Capital (DC) washout, Indian spin veteran Piyush Chawla expressed doubts over the hopes of the blue and red team for the playoffs, saying they are in danger of losing their opportunity to reach the last four stages. After a low scoring innings at the Uppal Stadium, DC managed to avoid a possible loss and went with his name with a point, keeping his playoff expectations alive. After winning in its first five matches, DC has been unstable, with just one win, four necklaces and no consequences in their not games. Speaking on ‘Match Center Live’ on Jiohotstar, JISTAR expert Piyush talked about a change in the initial line-up of DC and supported Jake Fraser McGurk to play again after a string of failures.
“When KL Rahul opened (against CSK), it was a forced change as FAF du Plessis was injured. Rahul meant to bat on number three or four to anchor the innings during pressure conditions. DC has already tried six or seven combinations at the top. Powerplay.
