DC are sixth on the points table with three wins and three losses each. But remarkably, they have won the toss in all 7 matches this season. Punjab Kings are currently unbeaten with 5 wins and 1 no-result in their six matches. They are now at the top of the points table and will want to keep that going.
Nine consecutive toss wins are a joint IPL record. It was first set by Sunrisers Hyderabad across the 2015 and 2016 seasons, and equaled by Chennai Super Kings again in 2019.
9 - Sunrisers Hyderabad (2015-16)
9 - Delhi Capitals (2025-26)*
8 - Rajasthan Royals (2023)
Toss was inconsequential- Shreyas Iyer
Patel won the toss and decided to bat first in the afternoon match. Iyer said that he wanted to bowl first, so both captains got their wish.
"Boys have turned up well. It's scorching hot but there are no complaints. That's how we want it to be. We need to keep training hard and get better all the time. We have to keep enjoying the game. I'd have bowled first, had a small discussion with Axar. He said he'll bat. Toss was inconsequential. Same team," Shreyas Iyer said at the toss.
The Capitals' main aim, especially after batting first, would be to improve their net run rate, which is currently in the negative. But depending on what happens in the night game on Saturday, even a win may not be enough to push Delhi Capitals onto the top half of the points table.
