Outer Delhi Warriors is a new team playing its first DPL season. Their debut match was against New Delhi Tigers where they lost by 40 runs. In bowling, Anshuman Hooda showed his impact by taking a brilliant 5 wickets but their batting line-up could not chase the target of 222. Dhruv Singh and Sanat Sangwan did fight a bit but the team overall seemed to crumble under pressure. Being a new team, ODW is still in the process of team combination and handling the pressure. But they have definitely shown talent – especially in the bowling department. If the batting is a little more steady, then this team can surprise anyone going forward. In this match, they will have a chance to achieve their first victory.
The last season of Purani Dilli 6 was quite promising. The team reached the semi-final, but the match got delayed due to rain and they had to be eliminated due to a lower table finish. But before that they showed their mettle by defeating Central Delhi Kings by 32 runs. Lalit Yadav and Yug Gupta gave excellent performances in batting, and Prince Yadav turned the game around with the ball. The team has a good core - which maintains balance in both batting and bowling. This team makes mature decisions in pressure moments and experience comes in handy. This time their mission is not just to reach the semi-final but to win the title. Their experience can give them an edge against ODW.
The pitch of Arun Jaitley Stadium Delhi is generally considered to be batting-friendly. The surface is flat and hard in which the bounce is consistent, so it is easy for the batsmen to take shots. The small boundaries of the stadium also support high scoring. In IPL 2024, the average first innings score here was above 235.
Then all the matches were won by the batting first team. But in the recent matches of DPL 2025, a little mixed trend is seen, in some matches the chasing team has also won. Therefore, taking a decision after winning the toss can be a bit tricky. Pacers have taken more wickets in recent T20 matches, but as the match progresses and the pitch dries, spinners also play an important role.
The heat of Delhi also tires the players, especially when long batting has to be done. Overall, this pitch is best for batting but the impact of spin can increase in the second innings. The decision of the toss can determine the direction of the match, so it should be decided only after looking at the recent form and conditions.
There has been no match so far between Outer Delhi Warriors and Old Dilli 6. Outer Delhi Warriors is a new team and they played their first match of this tournament this year in which they lost to New Delhi Tigers by 40 runs. Himmat Singh played a brilliant innings of 69 runs there. Anshuman Hooda bowled brilliantly for Outer Delhi by taking 5 wickets but his batting could not reach 222 runs. After the defeat in the first match, this game has become a redemption for them where they would like to show their strength against the old and set team. Purani Dilli 6 had a strong season last year as the team reached the semi-final. But the semi-final was washed out due to rain and due to their low table ranking South Delhi Superstars went ahead. This time Purani Dilli 6 has a chance to take revenge of the last time and move towards the trophy. The team has experience as well as hunger and their aim this time will be to complete the journey not just till the semi-final but straight to the final.
