An entire 40-over game anticipates fans when Delhi Capitals (DC) have Mumbai Indians (MI) in the sixteenth match of IPL 2023 at the Arun Jaitley Arena on Tuesday, April 11. This season, neither team has opened an account. With three defeats, DC is at the bottom of the IPL 2023 points table, while Mumbai is just above them with two defeats.
The Capitals have not been serious. Captain David Warner has been not even close to his standard best, in spite of being the group’s most elevated run-scorer. DC placed a significant amount of blame on candidates like Prithvi Shaw and Sarfaraz Khan, both of whom have had unsuccessful campaigns thus far.
The foreign batters have not fared any better. Rovman Powell only scored three runs in two matches, and Rilee Rossouw only scored 44 runs in three games.
DC suffer from too many issues. Notwithstanding, batting mentor Pravin Amre attempted to set up a courageous face in the pre-match question and answer session, saying:
“It’s not the way in which you start, yet the way that you end that is important.”
MI have been the same. Rohit Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav, and Ishan Kishan, their top three batters, are in terrible form. Along with star actor Jofra Archer, Cameron Green, who was hired for 17.50 crore rupees, has yet to make a significant impression.
Young guns Hrithik Shokeen and Kumar Kartikeya are leaking runs under pressure, making Mumbai’s spin unit appear weak as well. Piyush Chawla, a senior legspinner, has also not made any significant contributions.
Overall, both teams haven’t started off well, but they’ll be desperate to win the IPL 2023 for the first time.
Arun Jaitley Stadium’s April 11 weather report for Delhi: no rain is expected.
When DC and MI meet in Delhi on Tuesday, there won’t be any rain breaks. Accuweather.com says that there won’t be any rain during the game. Nevertheless, there will be a lot of cloud cover during the competition.
The temperature will be in the 29s to 34s Celsius range. However, the actual temperature will be one or two degrees lower than the actual feel. The humidity will be around 15%, which is on the lower side.

Pitch Report
The track at Arun Jaitley Stadium is incredible. The bounce remains constant throughout the match, and once the batters get their eye in, it becomes easier for them to score runs. To avoid injury, the bowlers will need to hit the right spots.
