Delhi Capitals will seek to rectify their top-order issues when they take on Mumbai Indians in their first home game of IPL 2026 in New Delhi. The Capitals faced a tough start in their opening match against Lucknow Super Giants, collapsing to 26 for four before Sameer Rizvi's impressive unbeaten half-century led them to a six-wicket victory. The top-order instability remains a concern, especially with the formidable Mumbai bowling attack, including Jasprit Bumrah. In contrast, Mumbai Indians are riding high on confidence after a record chase against Kolkata Knight Riders, with Rohit Sharma scoring 78 runs and Ryan Rickelton contributing 81 runs. Both teams boast strong bowling units, with Delhi's Lungi Ngidi and T Natarajan performing well.
