West Delhi Lions finished the league phase in third spot after winning four and losing three matches. They benefited from three washouts that gave them extra points to secure their playoff position. 

South Delhi Superstarz have enjoyed a decent campaign in this Delhi Premier League edition, collecting four victories to secure fourth place and book their playoff spot. This is a solid turnaround for the Superstarz, who opened with three straight losses before responding with four consecutive wins, interrupted by three washed-out fixtures.
