DC vs SRH Match Prediction: Who Will Win Today’s IPL Match?

DC vs SRH, IPL 2025: Winner Prediction For Match 10 [Source: iplt20.com]

The IPL 2025 season continues with an exciting clash as Delhi Capitals (DC) face off against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the Dr YS Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium. This encounter promises high-octane action between two evenly matched sides with contrasting strengths - DC's balanced squad featuring quality spin options against SRH's explosive batting lineup spearheaded by their middle-order powerhouse.

How Will The Dr YS Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium Pitch Behave In IPL 2025?

The Dr YS Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium has historically been a venue where teams batting first enjoy an advantage. Analysis of recent data reveals that teams batting first have won 67% of matches at this venue (2 out of 3 matches from IPL 2024-2025). In IPL 2024, both matches were won by teams batting first, while in IPL 2025, Delhi Capitals recently defeated Lucknow Super Giants by 1 wicket while chasing a target of 210. First-innings totals at this ground have averaged 224 runs (191, 272, and 209), while teams chasing have averaged 183 runs (171, 166, and 211).

This substantial gap between innings scores is telling of the pitch behaviour. The surface typically provides excellent bounce and carry during the first innings, making it conducive for batting. However, it tends to slow down considerably as the match progresses, making stroke-making increasingly difficult in the second innings. The significant deterioration in batting conditions makes chasing challenging at this venue, explaining the perfect record for teams batting first.

DC vs SRH Toss Prediction

Despite the historical advantage for teams batting first, the toss strategy at this venue has been mixed. In the two IPL 2024 matches, both toss-winning captains chose to bat first, recognizing the venue's batting-first advantage. However, the recent IPL 2025 match showed that successful chases are possible at this venue, with Delhi Capitals successfully chasing down 209 runs against Lucknow Super Giants. The captain winning the toss might look to bat first in this game as this will be a day game.

DC vs SRH OneCricket's Predicted Winner

Delhi Capitals emerge as the marginal favourites in what promises to be an extremely close contest. Their narrow advantage stems primarily from their superior head-to-head record against SRH (7 wins vs. SRH's 5 wins in their last 12 matches) and slightly better recent form. DC also has recent success at this venue, having successfully chased 209 runs against Lucknow Super Giants in IPL 2025.
