The Delhi Capitals will be hoping to make it two home wins in a row when they face the consistently unreliable Mumbai Indians. Rishabh Pant made an impressive comeback to form in DC's four-run triumph over the Gujarat Titans in their last match at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. During the game, DC appeared to have finally moved past relying on their top order and had finally found a winning plan in every department. So far, the Capitals' season has been a rollercoaster, with moments of greatness sandwiched between embarrassing failures. However, they have risen to sixth place with three victories in their previous four games, and a victory over MI will bolster their case for a playoff spot. Conversely, the five-time winners are shakily positioned in eighth place on the standings and cannot afford to lose.
