DC vs KKR, IPL 2025: Delhi Capitals will once again play at home as they face the defending champions, Kolkata Knight Riders, in Match 48 of the 2025 Indian Premier League. The game will take place at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Tuesday.
This will be the first time these two teams meet in this season, and both will be eager to get back to winning form in tomorrow’s match.
Delhi Capitals are coming into this match after losing to Royal Challengers Bengaluru by six wickets at home. In that game, Krunal Pandya was the standout player for Bengaluru, scoring 73 runs off 47 balls and also taking a wicket to help his team win.
On the other hand, Kolkata Knight Riders couldn’t play their last match against Punjab Kings as it was washed out due to rain. Before that, they lost to the Gujarat Titans by 39 runs. It’s been 17 days since KKR’s last win, so they’ll be desperate to earn some points and stay in the race for the playoffs.
According to Weather.com, it will be very hot in Delhi, with temperatures reaching up to 39°C during the day and dropping to around 26°C at night. Humidity will also be quite high, between 30% to 35%.
The pitch at the Arun Jaitley Stadium can sometimes help high scores, but in the last game between DC and RCB, it was dry and helped the spinners. If the same kind of pitch is used again, we might see another spin-friendly match.
