IPL 2026: Match 31, SRH vs DC Match Prediction – Who will win today’s IPL match between Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Delhi Capitals?

Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) will take on Delhi Capitals (DC) in Match No. 31 of the Indian Premier League 2026 at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium.

SRH currently sit fourth on the points table with six points. They began their campaign with a loss to Royal Challengers Bengaluru but bounced back against Kolkata Knight Riders. However, inconsistent results followed, including a narrow defeat to Lucknow Super Giants and another loss to Punjab Kings. Recently, though, they have found momentum with back-to-back wins over Rajasthan Royals and Chennai Super Kings, and will be aiming to secure their fourth win of the season.

Meanwhile, DC had a strong start with two consecutive victories before slipping with back-to-back defeats. They bounced back impressively in their latest outing against RCB, where David Miller sealed a thrilling last-over win. Riding high on that momentum, DC will look to carry their resurgence forward in this clash.
