Historically, there hasn’t been an outright winner when it comes to Delhi vs Mumbai head-to-head record in IPL history. While Indians lead among overall numbers, Capitals have a slight advantage when it comes to play at home. With IPL 2023 Match 16 to be played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium (second match of the season here) on Tuesday, the hosts would be looking to better their record at home against this opposition.
