MI vs DC, IPL 2025 Match 63: Top Players to pick
Suryakumar Yadav: Suryakumar Yadav is among the leading run scorers in IPL 2025 and has been a constant performer for MI throughout the season. Even if he failed to get a big knock, he contributed with quick 30s and 40s which helped MI to score big runs in the middle overs. Suryakumar has scored 510 runs from 12 matches this season at an average of 63.75 and a strike rate of 170.56.
Jasprit Bumrah: Star MI pacer Jasprit Bumrah will be a player to look out for in the upcoming match. He almost turned the match around in MI’s previous defeat against Gujarat Titans taking two crucial wickets by conceding just 19 runs in his four overs. The right-arm pacer has taken 13 wickets from eight matches this season.
KL Rahul: KL Rahul has been a star performer for DC and has shown his different version with the bat this year. Batting at different positions this season, Rahul has amassed 493 runs from 11 matches at an average of 61.62 and a strike rate of 148.04 with three fifties and a hundred. He ended up getting his fifth IPL hundred in the last game and will be looking to get another big knock against.
Kuldeep Yadav: Kuldeep Yadav has constantly performed for DC this year and among the leading wicket-takers for the franchise in the ongoing season. The leg-spinner has taken 12 wickets from 12 matches so far.

Sameer Rizvi: Sameer Rizvi hasn’t been impressive in the ongoing season and also didn’t get much chances in IPL 2025. He has played just three matches this season where he could amass only 24 runs.
