It’s match number 60 of the TATA IPL 2025, and we have two strong teams, Delhi Capitals taking on the Gujarat Titans in Delhi’s home den. Both teams are going pretty strong, and are in contention for the Playoffs. While Gujarat Titans are sitting comfortably in 1st position with 16 points from 11 games, Delhi Capitals are in 5th position with 13 points from 11 games.

It’s an interesting phase of the tournament where any win or loss will reduce or improve the qualification chances drastically. A win for Gujarat Titans will almost confirm their Playoffs spot. Whereas a win for Delhi Capitals will keep their Playoffs hopes alive. However, if Delhi Capitals lose, their qualification will then lie on Mumbai Indians’ hands. Whereas if Gujarat Titans will still have two more matches even if they lose this one.

While both Teams prepare for the restart, there are challenges both teams facing with respect to their Overseas players’ availability. While some players refuse to return like Faf du Plessis, Jake Fraser-McGurk and Mitchell Starc, some players like Jos Buttler may not be available for the Playoffs. This makes things very interesting, and the loss of key players will surely hurt the changes for both teams. So, as we wait for the match to begin, let’s analyze the current situation, and find out the best possible playing 11 for Delhi Capitals vs Gujarat Titans match 60 of IPL 2025.

Delhi Capitals have been hit badly due to the current situation as three of their key Overseas players are ruled out. All three, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Faf du Plessis and Mitchell Starc have decided to opt out of IPL due to personal reasons. With the trio now unavailable, DC have called in only Mustafizur Rahman as the replacement of Fraser-McGurk. However, it indirectly feels like a replacement for Starc. With Starc not there, Mukesh Kumar should be back in the team, and him alongside Dushmantha Chameera and T Natarajan will lead the pace bowling. 

Aside from this change, Delhi Capitals may continue with the same playing 11 that played in the last match with Vipraj not expected to be back for Madhav Tiwari. Meanwhile, it’s a key match for Delhi Capitals, and they would need the likes of Axar Patel and KL Rahul to set up big time. Aside from these two, DC would need their key bowlers, Kuldeep Yadav, T Natarajan, and Mukesh Kumar to come good.
