The 19th edition of Indian Premier League (IPL 2026) is in full swing, with seven matches already completed and all teams now playing their second game of the season.
Today marks the first double-header of IPL 2026 tournament, with four teams in action across two matches - one in the afternoon and the other in the evening. The opening clash will see Delhi Capitals take on Mumbai Indians, followed by an evening encounter between the Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals.
First Match Details: DC vs MI
The first game of the day features Delhi Capitals and Mumbai Indians, both of whom started their campaigns with wins. This means one team will face its first loss today, while the other will secure back-to-back wins.
Mumbai's batting unit impressed in their previous outing, with Rohit Sharma leading the charge with a brilliant half-century, although their bowling lacked sharpness. Delhi, on the other hand, showcased a strong bowling performance but will expect more from their top-order batters.
