Delhi Capitals Full Schedule, IPL 2026: Date, Time, Venue And Other Details Of DC Matches

KL Rahul remains Delhi Capitals' lynchpin with the bat
Under the captaincy of Axar Patel, Delhi Capitals are determined to end their wait for an Indian Premier League (IPL) trophy in 2026. Despite flashes of brilliance, they have struggled for consistency in recent seasons, finishing 5th in IPL 2025 and 7th in 2024. With some exciting additions to the roster, DC will begin their campaign against Lucknow Super Giants on April 1.
Axar confirmed at the Captains Day event in Mumbai that he will continue to lead the side, with KL Rahul set to open the batting alongside Sri Lanka's Pathum Nissanka. England's Ben Duckett was DC's first choice to partner Rahul but he pulled out of the season at the 11th hour, giving the team a major selection blow.
KL Rahul remains India's most potent option with the bat, with 4,000+ IPL runs to his name. Delhi's spin duo of Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav will be crucial on home tracks, while Auqib Nabi's all-round abilities are set to boost the team's hopes.
