IPL 2025 Points Table: Mumbai Indians Seal Playoff Spot with Dominant Win Over Delhi Capitals
Share this article:
Mumbai Indians clinched the final playoff spot in IPL 2025 with a commanding 59-run victory over Delhi Capitals at Wankhede Stadium on Wednesday.
Suryakumar Yadav anchored the innings with a gritty unbeaten 73, while Naman Dhir’s explosive cameo — 24 runs off just 8 balls — gave MI the late surge they needed. Despite a slow pitch and Delhi’s spin-heavy attack, Mumbai smashed 48 runs in the final two overs, finishing at a solid 180/5.
In response, Delhi faltered under pressure. Jasprit Bumrah and Mitchell Santner were lethal with the ball, bagging three wickets apiece as DC were bundled out for just 121. Sameer Rizvi’s 39 was the only bright spot in an otherwise lackluster chase.
With this win, Mumbai moved to 16 points, officially knocking Delhi out and securing the fourth and final playoff berth. The top four teams heading into the playoffs are: Gujarat Titans (18 points), Royal Challengers Bengaluru (17), Punjab Kings (17), and Mumbai Indians (16).
The rest - Sunrisers Hyderabad, Lucknow Super Giants, Kolkata Knight Riders, Rajasthan Royals, Chennai Super Kings, and Delhi Capitals - now exit the tournament, left to reflect on what went wrong.
