DC vs RR Dream11 Prediction, Playing 11, Fantasy Cricket Tips: 32nd Match, IPL 2025
We’re heading into the 32nd match of the IPL 2025, and it’s set to be a cracker at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi, where Delhi Capitals will face Rajasthan Royals on their home turf.
Hello and welcome to the DC vs RR Dream11 Prediction and Match Preview.
Let’s start with the hosts. Delhi Capitals have been one of the most consistent teams this season, winning four of their five matches so far.
They were on a roll until their unbeaten streak was snapped by Mumbai Indians, who beat them by 12 runs in their last match.
Despite the loss, DC are still second on the points table with 8 points, and there’s no panic yet.
One major positive has been the form and leadership of Axar Patel, he’s been making smart tactical calls and contributing with both bat and ball when needed.
KL Rahul has also been in great touch, not just with the bat but also behind the stumps.
However, one concern is Jake Fraser-McGurk, who’s failed to click in multiple games now.
His form is something the management will be watching closely. The return of Karun Nair gave them some stability in the middle, but even he couldn’t turn things around in the last match.
There’s a bit of injury cloud over Faf du Plessis, but at this stage, it may not shake up the team dynamic too much considering the depth DC has.
Now shifting focus to the visitors, Rajasthan Royals, who started the tournament well but have hit a rough patch. They’ve now lost two games in a row and are struggling to find rhythm.
They’ve played 6 matches, won 2, and lost 4, which surprisingly places them in the 8th position, highlighting how tight the points table is this season.
Their most recent loss came against Royal Challengers Bengaluru, where they were completely outplayed and lost by 9 wickets.
While Yashasvi Jaiswal finding form is a massive boost, other batters like Sanju Samson, Riyan Parag, and Nitish Rana have lacked consistency, and that’s hurting them.
The bowling unit also hasn’t been sharp. They’re not picking up early wickets and are leaking runs in the middle overs.
Jofra Archer has looked threatening in a few spells, but he hasn’t been supported enough by the rest of the attack.
So, heading into this game, Delhi will look to bounce back on home turf, while Rajasthan Royals will be desperate to stop the slide and regain momentum.
