IPL 2025: The 63rd match of IPL 2025 is to be played between Delhi Capitals and Mumbai Indians. There is a lot of thrill about this match, because the competition to reach the playoffs is now in its final stages. So far, three teams have qualified for the playoffs, while the journey of five teams has ended. In such a situation, there will be a tough fight between Delhi and Mumbai for the fourth and final playoff teams. However, according to weather reports, there is a possibility of rain in Mumbai today, which has increased the possibility of cancellation of this match. In such a situation, the question is that if this match is not done, then who will get benefit and for whom will the path be difficult?
Points table status
Mumbai Indians have so far scored 14 points with 7 wins in 12 matches and their net run rate is +1.156. On the other hand, Delhi Capitals have also won 6 matches and have 13 points in their account. However, Delhi’s net run rate is only +0.260, which is far behind Mumbai. Currently Mumbai is fourth and Delhi is in fifth place.
If the match is canceled?
If this match is canceled due to rain, then both teams will get one point each. This will lead to 15 points from Mumbai and 14 points from Delhi. In this situation, both teams will go into the playoffs depending on their next matches. Both Delhi and Mumbai have to play their next match against Punjab Kings. If Mumbai is successful in defeating Punjab, it will have 17 points and will reach the playoffs. On the other hand, the path of playoffs for Delhi will open only when it defeated Punjab and Mumbai also has to face defeat from Punjab. That is, the equations are still open for the last seat of the playoffs, but the rain has made the equation more complicated.
