Ayush Badoni of Lucknow Super Giants celebrates the wicket of Kagiso Rabada of Gujrat Titans during the 2025 IPL match between Gujarat Titans and Lucknow Super Giants at Narendra Modi Stadium on May 22, 2025, in Ahmedabad, India

The latest season of the Delhi Premier League gets underway on August 2. Here are the full squads and team lists ahead of DPL 2025.

When DPL 2025 be played?

A total of 44 group matches will be played between August 2 and 28, followed by Qualifier 1 and the Eliminator on August 29, before the final on August 30. All games will take place at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi.

On single-match days, games will start at 7 PM local time. For double-headers, the first match will begin at 2 PM and the second at 7 PM. However, the opening day will be an exception, with the South Delhi Superstarz facing the East Delhi Riders at 8:00 PM local time.

How many teams will play DPL 2025?

The tournament has been expanded from six to eight teams compared to the inaugural edition. Outer Delhi Warriors and New Delhi Tigers have joined the existing franchises – West Delhi Lions, North Delhi Strikers, South Delhi Superstarz, Purani Delhi-6, Delhi Kings, and East Delhi Riders.

In a surprising move, South Delhi Superstarz didn’t retain last year’s Player of the Tournament Priyansh Arya, who was later picked from the draft by Outer Delhi Warriors as their pre-auction signing. Instead, the inaugural champions retained their captain Ayush Badoni.
