MI vs DC pitch report
The pitch at Wankhede Stadium is traditionally batting-friendly, promising plenty of runs in the upcoming game. However, fast bowlers who hit the right lengths — especially in the powerplay — can extract early movement, as pacers have done in recent times. Dew is expected to play a role in the latter stages, making bowling second trickier. As a result, the toss-winning captain is likely to opt to bowl first. Teams will also have the option to change the ball if grip becomes an issue.

IPL 2025 Playoffs Scenario: What Happens If Rain Washes Out MI vs DC Match?
Delhi Capitals’ playoffs qualification hopes would suffer a big blow if their match against the Mumbai Indians gets washed out.
The Delhi Capitals stand on the cusp of elimination from the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 season. The franchise needs to win its remaining two matches in order to seal a top 4 spot. Anything less than 2 wins would make qualification into the next round extremely complicated for the Axar Patel-led side. However, with rain expected to play spoilsport in Delhi’s next match against Mumbai on Wednesday, the capital franchise and its bosses are in a state of panic over a potential blow to their top-four hopes.

What Happens If the MI vs DC Match Gets Washed Out?
A washed-out contest between MI and DC would significantly boost the playoffs qualification hopes of the Hardik Pandya-led side. Mumbai are already one point ahead of DC in the points table. In case their match against Delhi gets washed out, both teams would get a point each. Such a situation would see Mumbai’s tally go up to 15 points while Delhi’s would increase to 14.
Both MI and DC play their respective final league games of the season against Punjab Kings, a franchise that has already qualified for the playoffs. If the MI vs DC match doesn’t produce a result, Delhi would need to rely on the fixture between PBKS and MI to understand what fate has in store for them.
If MI go on to beat PBKS in that match, Delhi would be eliminated from the playoffs race, no matter the result of the match between them and Punjab.
