Mon May 05 15:00:00 UTC 2025: ## Rain Washes Out Delhi Capitals vs Sunrisers Hyderabad IPL Match; Both Teams Earn a Point
**New Delhi, May 5, 2025** – The Indian Premier League (IPL) match between Delhi Capitals (DC) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) ended in a no result due to rain. Delhi Capitals, who posted a paltry 133 runs, escaped defeat as the match was abandoned. Both teams received one point each.
This result leaves Delhi Capitals in fifth place on the points table with 13 points from 11 matches (one abandoned). While the rain saved them from a loss, their playoff hopes remain precarious. Their remaining fixtures against Punjab Kings, Mumbai Indians, and Gujarat Titans – all top-four contenders – pose a significant challenge. DC needs to win at least two of these matches to stand a reasonable chance of qualifying for the playoffs, with the outcome of other matches also playing a crucial role.
Conversely, the washout effectively eliminates Sunrisers Hyderabad from playoff contention. Even winning their remaining matches, they wouldn’t accumulate enough points to reach the top four.
Last year, Delhi Capitals also missed the playoffs, finishing with 14 points from 14 matches. Their current situation reflects a similar struggle, highlighting the importance of their upcoming games.
