DC vs MI Dream11 Prediction Today | Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing XI, Pitch Report – IPL 2025, 29th Match

Written by: Dhruv • 12.04.2025

Match Preview

Delhi Capitals will hope to continue their winning streak as they host the Mumbai Indians at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. This is a venue that has traditionally been a tough one for the Delhi team and one where the Mumbai team has had a lot of success. The return of Jasprit Bumrah will definitely give the Mumbai Indians a boost but it is high time they get their act together. Another loss here will put them in a very difficult situation.

Injuries & Illnesses

Pitch Report & Weather Conditions

There is a little bit of rain around in New Delhi and that could mean some delays or possibly some reduction in overs. The pitch at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in recent years has been very good for batting. 200 is always on the cards when two strong teams are playing with the small boundaries allowing for plenty of big hits as well.

DC vs MI Dream11 Top Picks

Wicketkeeper

Abhishek Porel, KL Rahul and Ryan Rickelton are the three choices that you have to look for. Looking at the current form, we think the two wicketkeeper batters from DC should get first choice.

Batters

We are once again looking for current form and batting position when we are choosing our batters for this match. SKY, F du Plessis, Tilak Varma, and Tristan Stubbs stand out as excellent options. Players like Rohit Sharma or Fraser McGurk are definite match winners on their day but they are struggling to get runs right now.

All Rounders

Hardik Pandya is the easy option to pick but the others are where it gets a bit tricky. Santner and Axar could struggle to contain the batters on a small ground. We are instead going for Vipraj Nigam who has been trusted to bowl during the tough times for DC so far.

Bowlers

Mitchell Starc and Kuldeep Yadav are absolute wictetakers that are impossible not to include. The same is true for Jasprit Bumrah, easily the best bowler in the world. He is someone that can turn the tide back into the favor for the bowlers during this match.

DC vs MI Captain and Vice-Captain Choices

Captain

With 491 fantasy points so far, no one comes close to the impact that Hardik Pandya has had. He is our captain for this match as well because he plays a central role with both bat and ball.

Vice-Captain

KL Rahul is batting with so much freedom and clarity that he could well be on his way to his most successful IPL. We are picking him as our vice-captain keeping his current form in mind.
