It is time for match 10 of the Indian Premier League 2025, and it is Delhi Capitals up against Sunrisers Hyderabad. It is a big game for SRH who are coming into this game after a loss, while DC would be hoping to continue their winning start to the tournament.

Delhi Capitals Ready For Another Run-Chase As Cummins Decides To Bat First

Pat Cummins won the toss and decided to bat first and would be looking to post a big total in front of DC who chased down a target of over 200 in the last encounter. Delhi Capitals are bowling first and one big name who is not in their playing XI is Ashutosh Sharma. The man played a blinder of a knock in the last match, where he smashed unbeaten 66.

However, in that game too, he came as an Impact Player and the same is expected in this game. If Delhi Capitals lose wickets in the run-chase, and feel the need of Ashutosh Sharma as a finisher, he would come in as an Impact Player.

Along with Ashutosh Sharma, there are likes of Karun Nair, Sameer Rizvi too who can come in as an Impact Player. Delhi Capitals though would be hoping that Ashutosh is not needed in this game, and would be hoping that their top order does the job in this encounter. 

Apart from Ashutosh Sharma, another big change in the playing XI is the inclusion of KL Rahul in place of Sameer Rizvi. It promises to be a cracking encounter between two quality teams, and let's see how things pan out.
