outer delhi warriors vs north delhi strikers

Outer Delhi Warriors (ODW) take on North Delhi Strikers (NDS) in match No. 28 of the ongoing Delhi Premier League (DPL) 2025 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Wednesday, August 20.

Harsh Tyagi's Warriors have not had a great time in the tournament, as they have managed only one win from seven matches and are languishing at the bottom of the standings. They have lost five games, and another ended without a result. Their only win came against Purani Dilli 6 in their second game of the season. While they are still in contention for a spot in the playoffs, another defeat could end their hopes.

On the other hand, North Delhi Strikers find themselves at No. 5 on the points table, having won three games and lost as many in DPL 2025. However, they have suffered defeats in their last two matches. The Strikers defeated the Warriors in their previous meeting in the tournament on August 6 by 19 runs.

The Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi has been sensational for batting in DPL 2025. The highest first-innings total is 231/7 this season. This mammoth total was chased down successfully in that game by East Delhi Riders against Outer Delhi Warriors. The captain who wins the toss would want to bowl first.

Priyansh Arya, Sanat Sangwan, Karan Garg, Keshav Dabas, Dhruv Singh (WK), Harsh Tyagi (C), Shivam Sharma, Siddhant Sharma, Jitesh Singh, Shaurya Malik, Anshuman Hooda.

Sarthak Ranjan, Arnav Bugga, Vaibhav Kandpal, Yajas Sharma, Pranav Rajuvanshi (WK), Yash Bhatia, Arjun Rapria, Harshit Rana (C), Vikas Dixit, Deepanshu Gulia, Kuldip Yadav.

NDS opener Sarthak Ranjan is second in the list of highest run-getters in the tournament. He has scored 307 runs from six games at an average of 51.17. He will look to get the Strikers off to a positive start on Wednesday.

Harshit Rana has been in brilliant form so far. The right-arm pacer has picked up 10 wickets in six games at an average of 17.60 and a strike rate of 13.80. His pace and bounce have caused a lot of problems for the batters. Rana's four-over spell will be key for NDS.
