The Delhi Capitals and the Sunrisers Hyderabad are facing each other in the 55th match of the Indian Premier League 2025 at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium. The home team, Sunrisers Hyderabad are dominating the proceedings in the game and have nearly put the competition to an end for the game.

Kavya Maran Gets Excited By Her Team's Performance

The SRH bowlers dominated the proceedings with the new ball and had DC struggling at 29/5 within the seventh over of the innings. It was from this stage that Vipraj Nigam and Tristan Stubbs engaged in a rebuilding partnership for their team.

However, in the 13th over a misunderstanding between the two batters resulted in an unfortunate run-out. Tristan Stubbs and Vipraj Nigam ended up at the same end on the first ball of the over. Vipraj Nigam surrendered his wicket so that Stubbs survives.


After the run-out, the owner of the SRH franchise, Kavya Maran was seen delighted in the stands. She was seen clapping and smiling in the stands. 

Delhi Capitals Fighting Back

Notably, this is a do-or-die game for both the teams. While the Delhi Capitals had won six of their 10 games ahead of this clash, SRH had won three of their 10. A defeat in this match for either of the team would spell elimination for them from the tournament. 

Pat Cummins inspired his team to bring out the best with a brilliant show at the beginning of the game. His three wickets in the powerplay put the Capitals on the back footy. Even though the Capitals are still fighting, given the nature of the track at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, it will be difficult for the Capitals to defend a target less than 180.
