Delhi Capitals' WPL 2026 Playoff Hopes Dwindle After Gujarat Giants Defeat

• Delhi Capitals are currently fourth in the WPL 2026 points table with 3 wins and 4 losses from 7 matches.
• They suffered a 3-run defeat against Gujarat Giants at BCA Stadium, Vadodara, failing to chase 9 runs in the final over.
• To qualify, DC must secure a big win against UP Warriorz in their last match on February 1 and hope Gujarat Giants defeat Mumbai Indians on January 30.
• If Mumbai Indians win and DC beats UP Warriorz, NRR will decide qualification among MI, GG, and DC, all potentially on 8 points.
• The top team directly qualifies for the final, while 2nd and 3rd placed teams play an eliminator.

Why It Matters: Delhi Capitals face a tough path to WPL 2026 playoffs, relying on a big win and other match results.
