Delhi Capitals Match Tickets: When & how to buy for IPL 2026 first phase

Delhi Capitals will play their first game of IPL 2026 on April 1 against the LSG.

Indian Premier League 2026 is set to entertain cricket fans from March 28 with the opening game between Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH). In this tournament, which will last for more than two months, 84 exciting matches will be played between 10 teams.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has only revealed the schedule for the first 20 games of IPL 2026 due to upcoming assembly elections in several states.

Delhi Capitals (DC) will aim for their maiden trophy in IPL 2026. They will commence their stint with a clash against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) on April 1 at Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow.

Last season, DC made a fabulous start under Axar Patel‘s captaincy but could not match the momentum throughout the tournament. They eventually finished in the fifth spot in the points table with 7 wins and 6 defeats across 14 games. One game ended in a no result.

In the mini-auction held in December, the 2020 runners-up bought prominent players like Pathum Nissanka, Kyle Jamieson, Lungi Ngidi, Ben Duckett, Prithvi Shaw, and David Miller. Axar is going to lead the side once again in the upcoming edition.
