Outer Delhi Warriors lost the game 30 by 7 wickets to New Delhi Tigers in the DPL 2025. While chasing 143, NDT was always in control, as their top order made a good start, which set the tone of the match very early on for them to have an easy chase. ODW’s innings of 142/7 in 20 overs did not have enough firepower, as the middle overs got unravelled and fielding errors were made. At the last moment, Tigers won the game with a comfortable margin as they reached their target, 144/3 in just 15.2 overs. Here are the top reasons why the Outer Delhi Warriors lost the match.

1. No partnerships in the Middle Overs

ODW’s middle order was completely unable to build any kind of partnerships, leading to the regular fall of wickets. The likes of Rishabh Drall (2 off 6) and Jitesh Singh (2 off 6) were dismissed at very cheap prices, which stopped the team from going further. Breakdowns of the middle overs significantly affected the Warriors’ batting tempo.

2. Failure to Restrict NDT's Top Order

After a couple of early wickets, ODW bowlers were not able to calm down the NDT top order. Shivam Gupta (59 off 43) and Himmat Singh (58 off 38) got together to compile a big partnership of 113 runs for the second wicket. This allowed the Tigers to take complete command of their innings at that point.

3. Missed Opportunities in the Field

Outer had several issues in the field, including bad throws and missed catches, which allowed the batters of NDT to exploit the situation. Boundaries were hit freely at the most important time of the match; consequently, the Tigers were given the momentum and it made the chase very simple.

The Tigers hold seventh place in the table with just two wins from five games thus far; Himmat Singh's side will require further consistency to get further up the table.

The pitch at Arun Jaitley Stadium generally favors batters, and because of the short boundaries, it offers more opportunity for shot-making. It will be difficult for the bowlers, unless they are bright and clever with variations, particularly in the death overs. If they win the toss, batting first will be their preferred option.
