DPL 2025 Points Table

Key Stats

In Match 35 of the DPL 2025, Purani Dilli 6 was beaten badly by Central Delhi Kings with a margin of 104 runs. CDK, after being asked to bat, made a huge 197/5 in 18 overs, powered by Yash Dhull’s sensible 53, Aryan Rana’s 42* off 14 balls and Jonty Sidhu’s quickfire 28. Although Rajneesh Dadar got good support from the other bowlers, he was unable to stop the flow of runs. Purani Dilli 6 were never in the match while chasing the revised target and were all out for 69 in 11.1 overs. The difference in batting and bowling strength was very evident in the game and PD6 were left trailing in all departments. Below are the main reasons for Purani Dilli 6 defeat.

1. Top Order Collapse

Wickets kept falling for Purani Dilli 6 at intervals and the batsmen of the top order couldn't stand the pressure of chasing a large target. Except for Pranav Pant (25 off 17), none of the batsmen looked comfortable and they all got out cheaply. Because of this weak start, the team was always playing behind the required rate, which made it almost impossible to come back.

2. Central Delhi Kings’ Bowling Brilliance

The CDK bowlers were very efficient in their execution of the plans; they were taking wickets early and were able to repeat the same performance frequently. Jonty Sidhu (2/6) and Simarjeet Singh (2/7) were very quick in dismantling the core batting lineup. Arun Pundir got two wickets in the middle overs that killed the remaining hope of a fightback and highlighted CDK’s complete control over the game.

3. Weak Bowling in Powerplay Overs

While Rajneesh Dadar picked up 3 wickets, the other bowlers leaked runs heavily in the first 10 overs. Aryan Rana’s quickfire 42* and Dhull’s fifty ensured CDK crossed 190 with ease. Poor line and lack of execution meant PD6 were chasing far too many on a tough surface.

Central Delhi Kings Innings – 197/5 in 18 overs

Purani Dilli 6 Innings—69 all out in just 11.1 overs
