DPL 2025: Full Schedule, Teams, Captains & Where to Watch Live The Delhi Premier League (DPL) is coming back for its second season from August 2 to August 31. If any match gets delayed due to rain or other reasons, September 1 will be used as a backup day. All the matches will be played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi.

This season will be bigger than last year. There are now 8 men’s teams instead of 6, and the number of matches has increased from 30 to 40. The teams are divided into two groups, Group A and Group B. Each team will play 10 matches. They will play every team in their group twice (home and away), and they will play once against each team from the other group.

The DDCA will want to grant a few more superstars to the world through DPL 2025. A few changes have come about before the league’s second edition. For starters, two new teams have been added. There have been reshuffles, and an auction took place on July 7 in Delhi. The squads are changed, and even the captains.

Rishabh Pant won’t be leading the Purani Dilli 6, like he did in the inaugural match of DPL, as a foot injury has ruled him out of the tournament. Priyansh won’t be leading a team either, as someone else has been picked over him. Harshit Rana has replaced Vaibhav Kandpal as the captain of the North Delhi Strikers.
