Delhi Weather: DC vs MI Pitch Report and Predicted Lineups at Arun Jaitley Stadium
The Delhi Capitals meet the Mumbai Indians at Arun Jaitley Stadium on Saturday, 4 April. The game starts at 3.30 PM IST and is the first of two matches that day. Both teams have one win so far this IPL 2026 season.
Match context
Mumbai Indians opened with a six-wicket win over Kolkata Knight Riders last week. Delhi Capitals beat Lucknow Super Giants by six wickets earlier this week. Mitchell Santner is now available and is expected to replace AM Ghazanfar.
Weather outlook
Key details include Delhi weather, the DC vs MI pitch report, and predicted lineups at Arun Jaitley Stadium. AccuWeather forecasts rain in Delhi on Saturday. There is a 43–51% chance of rain between 4 PM and 7 PM.
The probability of precipitation at 3 PM toss time is around 18%. The toss could be delayed. Multiple rain interruptions are possible. Heavy rain may cause a washout.
Pitch analysis
The Arun Jaitley surface has favoured batsmen recently. The average first-innings score at the ground was 203 in IPL 2025. This match will be played on pitch No. 6.
That surface produced Sunrisers Hyderabad’s 278/3 against Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL 2025. If conditions remain dry, expect a high-scoring contest. Overcast skies and rain could change that outlook.
