Parth Jindal Apologises After Delhi Capitals Fail To Qualify For Playoffs: "Extremely Poor..."
Delhi Capitals (DC) co-owner Parth Jindal expressed his disappointment after the franchise crashed out of the IPL 2025 playoffs race, following the loss to Mumbai Indians (MI) on Wednesday. Taking to X, Jindal admitted that DC failed to capitalise on a strong start to the season, adding that the team will now have to come back stronger next season. For the unversed, DC won their first four games of the season and looked destined to top the table. However, a midseason slump saw them miss out on a top four finish. They needed to beat both MI and Punjab Kings in their last two matches to have any hopes of making it to the playoffs. "Sorry to all @DelhiCapitals fans - like you i too am reeling from the second half of the season. What started so well ended extremely poorly. There are positives to take from this campaign but for now all focus on the next game which we need to win. Post the season there will need to be a lot of introspection on a lot of aspects," wrote Jindal. Sorry to all @DelhiCapitals fans - like you i too am reeling from the second half of the season. What started so well ended extremely poorly. There are positives to take from this campaign but for now all focus on the next game which we need to win. Post the season there will... — Parth Jindal (@ParthJindal11) May 21, 2025 MI grabbed the fourth and final playoff spot, joining the likes of Gujarat Titans, PBKS and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB). Recapping the match, Suryakumar Yadav hit a 43-ball 73 , while Ryan Rickelton (25), Will Jacks (21), Tilak Varma (27) and Naman Dhir (24 not out) chipped in with useful contributions as MI posted a 180 for five. In reply, DC crumbled to 121 in 18.2 overs with Sameer Rizvi top-scoring with a 35-ball 39. "I can throw them (Santner and Bumrah) the ball whenever I want," Mumbai skipper Hardik Pandya said. "They bring such control and perfection, which makes my job easy." "We let it slip in the last two overs," said Delhi's stand-in skipper Faf du Plessis, who led after regular captain Axar Patel fell ill. "Momentum is a real thing in cricket. The way they counter-punched to get almost 50 in the last two overs, undoing the work of the first 17-18 overs. We lost that momentum."

Parth Jindal 'reeling'; demands 'introspection' after Delhi Capitals' sharp downturn: 'It ended extremely poorly'
Delhi Capitals have had a season of two extreme halves. Under new captain Axar Patel, Delhi made a promising start, winning all the first four matches to reign at the top of the points table. However, they incurred a sharp turnaround thereafter, losing six of their next eight matches, which eventually led to their elimination from the race to the playoffs in the ongoing IPL 2025. Delhi met their eventual fate on Wednesday at the Wankhede Stadium, after suffering a 59-run loss against Mumbai Indians. It was their fourth straight defeat in a completed game, having last secured a win exactly a month back at the Ekana Stadium against the Lucknow Super Giants. Delhi were looking to seal their spot in the final playoffs berth, but the defeat handed Mumbai the ticket. Following the loss, Delhi co-oner Parth Jindal was left "reeling" as he apologised to the fans of the franchise. He demanded an "introspection" after a horrid show in the second half of the season, which he deemed "extremely poor." He tweeted: "Sorry to all @DelhiCapitals fans – like you, I too am reeling from the second half of the season. What started so well ended extremely poorly," he wrote. 'There are positives to take from this campaign but for now all focus on the next game which we need to win. Post the season there will need to be a lot of introspection on a lot of aspects.' Delhi head coach Hemang Badani reckoned the team's failure to settle down in a designated opening pair were among the primary reasons behind the team being unable to reach the playoffs. Delhi Capitals tried out as many as seven partners with no considerable success in 13 matches, and will now take on Punjab Kings in their last game on Saturday. "A settled opening pair is only possible when your opening pair gives you a start. If you don't get starts, you are bound to make changes to try and fill that gap, fill that void," Badani told the media here. "If you go back and see the other sides which have had great starts and great powerplays with the bat, we haven't had those starts and hence we've had to make those changes." "We had Jake (Fraser-McGurk) at the top earlier, it didn't work for us. Abishek (Porel), then we had Faf (du Plessis), then we also had Karun (Nair) to come in. It's just that we haven't had anyone really making sure, ensuring that we get off to good starts," he added.

DC Co-Owner Asks BCCI To Shift IPL 2025 Clash With MI Out Of Mumbai: Report
Last Updated: Delhi Capitals have reportedly requested the BCCI to shift their Wednesday night IPL contest against Mumbai Indians to a different venue. Delhi Capitals co-owner Parth Jindal has reportedly written an email to the BCCI with a request shift their high-stakes IPL 2025 contest with Mumbai Indians on Wednesday night in Mumbai. Jindal cited the forecast for heavy rains as the reason as it could potentially washout the entire contest itself and therefore, 'in quest of consistency" the match should be held at a different venue. Jindal 's request comes after BCCI shifted match between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Lucknow Super Giants out of Bengaluru citing 'unfavourable weather conditions". The contest will now be held in Lucknow. 'The forecast in Mumbai is for heavy rains and there is a strong likelihood that the game will be washed out," ESPNcricinfo quoted the mail from Jindal as reading. 'Just as the game between RCB vs SRH has been moved out of Bengaluru in the quest for consistency and in the interest of the league it is my request that tomorrow's game also be moved to a different location as we have known for the better part of 6 days that the forecast for 21st in Mumbai is for heavy showers." The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) on Tuesday issued a yellow alert for Mumbai for the next four days. Wednesday's contest between MI and DC could be impacted by rain. On Tuesday, when the two teams were practicing at the Wankhede Stadium, DC's session was interrupted when rain arrived around 8 PM IST. MI currently have 14 points and fourth on the table while DC are at fifth spot with 13 points. Should the contest be abandoned, the teams will take one point each. In that scenario, the result of their respective last league matches will decide which team qualifies. First Published: May 21, 2025, 08:41 IST
