DC vs GT Highlights, IPL 2026: Delhi Capitals lose by 1 run, David Miller's late error against former team costs match
Delhi Capitals vs Gujarat Titans Highlights, IPL 2026: Delhi Capitals can't get home after needing 2 from 2! From a hopeless position, David Miller's fireworks brought DC close, and into a winning position – but errors at the end allow GT to get the win by 1 run, and points on board.
Delhi Capitals vs Gujarat Titans LIVE Score, IPL 2026: The IPL table is gradually beginning to take shape in the early part of the season, as teams figure things out behind the scenes but also know what their position early in the tournament is. Today’s fixture at the Arun Jaitley Stadium has the unbeaten home team with two wins from two take on a team which has been better than their two losses to start the season – but Gujarat Titans know that a hat-trick of losses leaves them struggling early, while Delhi Capitals could join the early pace-setters for the league....Read More
For both teams, the strength lies in the bowling department. Delhi have looked supremely well-rounded, with the best spin corps in the tournament, supplemented well by a bowling unit that has done its job and been amongst the wickets to down the powerful batting of both Lucknow Super Giants and Mumbai Indians. Similarly Gujarat Titans have a ferocious pace bowling unit, highlighted by Purple Cap winner Prasidh Krishna, and have gears they can hit to restrict teams.
These are two bowling units which don’t necessarily have the destructive potential, but are top of the class in terms of restricting run-flow and forcing opposition batters to commit errors by being forced to chase boundaries off good balls. There is hardly a weak spot – and despite several scores of 200+ against each other in the last season, it was free from any dynamite batting showcases, thanks to the bowlers’ skills being pitted against each other.
The flip side of this is a pair of batting units who haven’t quite clicked. Across the two teams, there will be several players looking for form – only Sameer Rizvi has exploded at the start of this IPL, being a real find thus far, but both his knocks have been recovery efforts after DC lost early wickets in small chases. This is not a sustainable gameplan for the Capitals, and while Pathum Nissanka had a good start vs MI, it is star-man KL Rahul of whom the most is expected. When will he come to the party? And is there a change to be made at number three with the high-intent Abishek Porel adding some powerplay emphasis ahead of Nitish Rana?
For GT, it is an opposite issue: Sai Sudharsan quietly got runs under his belt as he always does, and Shubman Gill’s return gives them a big boost at the top of the order. Sudharsan scored a century vs GT in Delhi last year, while Gill was a handful of runs away from a ton of his own in a 10-wicket win. But lower down the order, the middle of GT’s batting is the big concern. The balance doesn’t quite sit right, and is a weakness for teams to target: it will be a concern that Rashid Khan and Kagiso Rabada looked more capable in the chase vs RR than the likes of Shahrukh Khan and Rahul Tewatia.
A win for GT tonight pushes them up the table and keeps them well within the competition at this early part of the season, while Delhi know that a loss won’t be the end of the world. Equally, DC will want to get the wins under their belt before a tricky part of their season, while recovering from three losses is an unenviable task for GT to deal with. Important early contest for both teams.

DC vs GT LIVE Score: The winning moment for GT
DC vs GT LIVE Score: So gutsy from Prasidh Krishna. Couldn't land the yorkers, so turned to his hard length, into-the-pitch tactic. Dug it into the surface, Miller was too sped up trying to whack it, and missed it altogether. Kuldeep was slightly caught on his heels trying to get through, and Buttler was sharp with a glove off, rolling it into the stumps.
Tell you what, this match over the last 10 overs had one hell of a rollercoaster. With 2 overs left, it was Gujarat easily, with two balls left, it was all Delhi. Ultimately, the only 2 that will matter is the two points, and those are pocketed by Shubman Gill's team.

DC vs GT LIVE Score: GOT HIM! Siraj might have settled it, gets Rahul on 92!
DC vs GT LIVE Score: That could be the game! Full and wide, Rahul chases it, and it's a thin edge that goes through for Buttler to take the catch! Coaxes the mistake, and Rahul's terrific innings is over!
Still a lot to do for Delhi – but you don't like their chances from here.

DC vs GT LIVE Score: 69 needed off 30 now
DC vs GT LIVE Score: Huge effort needed from DC – they have lost momentum with this phase of play, which has seen them essentially lose 5 wickets in the space of 5 overs. Rashid Khan turned this match, and now suddenly it's 14 rpo required.
If they wanted two men for it, it was probably KL Rahul and Tristan Stubbs – but they can't afford mistakes.

DC vs GT LIVE Score: Axar Patel throws it away! Rashid finishes with three
DC vs GT LIVE Score: Axar Patel with a strange shot! Only one ball of Rashid Khan left, and he is tempted into a big shot – could have played him out and still been in total control! Instead, DC are suddenly in big trouble.

DC vs GT LIVE Score: KL Rahul taking a liking to Prasidh Krishna, equation down to 81 off 42. But it's bad news – David Miller has to leave the field, he's not happy with his hand. A fracture, sprain, wound – we will find out soon.
Axar Patel in to replace him, holding onto Stubbs for now.

DC vs GT LIVE Score: David Miller in huge pain – his thumb looks jammed

DC vs GT LIVE Score: SAMEER RIZVI GOLDEN DUCK! RASHID WITH THE MAGIC
DC vs GT LIVE Score: WHAT A MOMENT IN THE CONTEXT OF THIS MATCH! Sameer Rizvi has been red-hot, and you have to get him early – so how about a golden duck? Rashid brings in a slip, tosses it up on fourth stump – but hello, it's the googly, and Rizvi has no clue! Rattles through the gate and rattles his stumps too, and DC's danger-man is gone immediately!

DC vs GT LIVE Score: Rana's struggle continues! Gone on 5
DC vs GT LIVE Score: Nitish Rana having no success at his new franchise! Rashid Khan in this mood is not the man to target. Gets some width so tries to chase it, but Rashid has his number – sliced up, and great catch by Sudharsan, running in and taking the catch.

DC vs GT LIVE Score: Rahul responds to Nissanka wicket with 4, 6, 6, 4! On fire now, reaches his fifty
DC vs GT LIVE Score: He has picked the screws out of his Karnataka teammate Prasidh! KL Rahul in 2026 knows he can't care that the over produced a wicket – still has to go after it. Pull for four, straight drive for six, off-drive for six, cut shot for four – some cricket, and that's fifty for him!

DC vs GT LIVE Score: NISSANKA GONE! Picks out mid-off
DC vs GT LIVE Score: PRASIDH KRISHNA STRIKES! Nissanka tries to clear mid-off inside the ring, but it's a little too short to go for that shot on this instance. Can't get underneath it, and hits it right to mid-off, where the catch is taken.
He looked great for his 41, but that's a key wicket for GT.

GT still holding onto control.

DC vs GT LIVE Score: Good response from Siraj, 7 off it
DC vs GT LIVE Score: Not the quickest start DC could have gotten – 27/0 after 3. They need to look at a 60-run powerplay at least, so they will have to step on the gas pedal over the second half of the restrictions.

DC vs GT LIVE Score: 14 off the first! Nissanka with a textbook straight drive

DC vs GT LIVE Score: Sliced up – Ngidi gets Gill!
DC vs GT LIVE Score: Lungi Ngidi is on top form and he makes sure he gets a wicket! That slower one, you may know it's coming but it's so hard to get away. Gill tries to chase it but can only slice it straight up – Nitish Rana settles, and it's an easy catch for him.
DC pulling things back.

DC vs GT LIVE Score: Gill takes down Kuldeep! 6, 6
DC vs GT LIVE Score: Not great bowling from Kuldeep – dragged down leg and helped on for an easy six, and a couple of balls later he gets one overpitched which he can play an easy step-hit down the ground to for six more.
Kuldeep did get Buttler but has been expensive today.

DC vs GT LIVE Score: Excellent post-timeout over from Natarajan, 7 off it
DC vs GT LIVE Score: DC have a couple of death specialists to rely on and that's what they want from him – a four, but only 7 off it, and slows down GT just a touch. Good time to turn to Kuldeep now with the GT batters targeting boundaries.

DC vs GT LIVE Score: Fifty for Gill!
DC vs GT LIVE Score: Has taken him 34 balls to reach his fifty, which isn't the most fluent, but he is anchoring this innings well. Knows he has to go big now though – and DC have good bowlers saved for the death. A couple from Natarajan, one of Ngidi, one of Kuldeep. Need to squeeze one from Axar or Mukesh.

DC vs GT LIVE Score: 152/2 after 14
DC vs GT LIVE Score: GT going at nearly 11, thanks to that Vipraj over – but DC doing well to keep control after that with Kuldeep and Axar. Boundaries not too tough to come by at this venue but DC ensuring there's not too many massive overs through the middle.

DC vs GT LIVE Score: Gill nearly holes out! Just short of Miller
DC vs GT LIVE Score: The GT captain nearly picks out long on! He mishits it, and just as well because it's always dipping on Miller running in. Almost gets there – but just hits the floor. Can't get fingers underneath it.
Lucky break, and DC will feel that was the moment.

DC vs GT LIVE Score: Vipraj Nigam brought on to try and sneak through an over and it has not gone to plan at all! A couple of drag downs which Washington hammers for a pair of fours, and the second is a no-ball! The free hit is another drag down, hammered far over midwicket for six more!
Two balls later, it's a full toss to Gill, who hits it nice and straight for six more. DC throw away the advantage.

DC vs GT LIVE Score: 101/2 at the halfway mark
DC vs GT LIVE Score: Kuldeep slides too far down leg against Gill, and the GT captain hammers the first ball of this over for a six with a slog sweep. Five singles off its remainder and it's an easy 11 picked up – 101/2 after 10 overs. Very nicely poised.

DC vs GT LIVE Score: Ngidi concedes only 5 off his second – limits the damage
DC vs GT LIVE Score: Excellent over to follow up a couple of huge overs from Ngidi. Axar won't like using his strike pacer for two up front but it was needed to interrupt Buttler's onslaught.
68/1 after the powerplay – DC will now turn to their leg-spinners, but Buttler enjoys those too!

DC vs GT LIVE Score: Jos Buttler sends it to the moon! 23 off the over
DC vs GT LIVE Score: Wow wow wow! Is there a more impressive batter to watch in full flow? Three sixes in that over – a scoop over fine leg, a massive straight drive that goes to the top tier, and finally dances down to hit a cover drive far over the off-side.
Mix in a four there as well – Mukesh Kumar's figures are ruined. 63/1 after 5, and GT are up and running!
