DC vs GT Match Prediction: Delhi Capitals saw their last match, which was against Punjab Kings in Dharamsala on May 8, get interrupted and eventually abandoned as the IPL 2025 neared an unexpected hiatus due to the India-Pakistan sort-of-war at the border.
10 days after that, Axar Patel’s team will return to the field, though instead of PBKS, they will now be facing the high-flying Gujarat Titans; the PBKS vs DC clash will be replayed later on.
Match 60 of IPL 2025, Delhi vs Gujarat, will take place on Sunday evening in Delhi. The hosts have lost some steam and momentum they had at the start of the season. DC have 13 points in 11 games and must win at least two of them.
Shubman Gill’s unit have been clinical in winning 8 out of 11 matches. A win in this game will seal their playoff spot, and they are already targeting a top-two finish.
DC vs GT head-to-head:
Gujarat and Delhi have an absolute level head-to-head record in the IPL. GT and DC have clashed six times, with each team winning three games.
DC vs GT date and time:

DC vs GT injury and availability news:
The one-week break has really dented Delhi Capitals’ overseas contingent. The biggest loss for them is Mitchell Starc: the Australian speedster is apparently shaken by the incidents in Dharamsala and has decided not to return to complete the IPL.
Along with Starc, opener Jake Fraser-McGurk and South African all-rounder Donovan Ferreira have also opted out for the rest of the season. DC have replaced Fraser-McGurk with Bangladesh pacer Mustafizur Rahman, who will be available till the end of the league stage.
GT have all their overseas players intact, although Jos Buttler will be available only until the end of the league stage as England will be hosting West Indies.
