Central Delhi Kings Vs West Delhi Lions Toss Update

West Delhi Lions captain Nitish Rana won the toss and has opted to field against Central Delhi Kings.

Last season, they finished fifth and missed the playoffs. This year marks their first appearance in the final.

West Delhi Lions took the longer route, winning the tense Eliminator against South Delhi Superstarz by seven wickets. The match witnessed Lions' captain Nitish Rana and Superstarz bowler Digvesh Rathi engage in an altercation.

The Lions then beat East Delhi Riders in Qualifier 2 by eight wickets. Captain Nitish Rana (314 runs) and Ayush Doseja (300 runs) have been central to their resurgence. They finished sixth last season and did not qualify for the knockouts. Reaching the final in 2025 is their best showing to date, and they are one step away from becoming the champions.
