MI and DC lock horns with each other at Delhi 

Match 8 of IPL 2026 will feature Delhi Capitals (DC) taking on Mumbai Indians (MI) at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi on Saturday, April 4. It will be the first game of the day, with another match scheduled later.

DC come into this match after a strong start to the season. They defeated Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) with ease, thanks to an excellent bowling performance that kept the opposition to a low total. Their batters then chased the target comfortably.

MI also began their campaign on a winning note, beating Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in an impressive run chase. A solid opening partnership between Rohit Sharma and Ryan Rickelton helped them reach the target with confidence.

This match is expected to be competitive, with both teams looking strong. DC’s bowlers will challenge MI’s powerful batting lineup, while MI’s attack, led by Jasprit Bumrah, will look to stop key players like KL Rahul and Tristan Stubbs.
