East Delhi Riders remain winless in the Delhi Premier League 2026. But they have their first points on the board as their last game against West Delhi Lions was abandoned and had to share a point each.
It's been a difficult season for Mayank Rawat’s team. They began their campaign with a four-wicket defeat to South Delhi Superstarz after posting 165. They then suffered a heavy 49 run loss to New Delhi Tigers, managing only 129 for 9.
On 5 August they were beaten by six wickets by North Delhi Strikers despite scoring 171 for 6, and got their first points on board after their game against West Delhi ended in no result.
Talented youngster Arpit Rana is the top run scorer for the East Delhi Riders. He has scored 103 runs from three innings, but has been inconsistent. His best performance of 66 off 39 balls came against South Delhi Superstarz but since then he has not been able to touch the 20 runs mark in the last two games.

Mayank Rawat (48), Dhruv Kaushik (34) and Hardik Sharma (31) have provided useful support, but the side has struggled to convert starts into match-winning totals.

The pitch at Arun Jaitley is flat and batting-friendly with true, consistent bounce that allows batters to play their shots freely. Short square boundaries and a fast outfield encourage high scoring. Pacers may get slight early movement, while spinners gain some grip in the middle overs. The first innings average score is 178.
The captain who wins the toss, would definitely want to bowl first. In the Delhi Premier League 2026 majority of the matches have been won by the chasing team
West Delhi Lions is the outright favourite to win this game. The last game between the two teams was abandoned and had to share points.
