Delhi Capitals (DC) will play their entire roster of seven home matches of the IPL 2026 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. The BCCI finalised the franchise's remaining three home fixtures on March 26, as part of the full schedule release for the second half of the IPL 2026 season. DC will kick off their campaign against Lucknow Super Giants on April 1 followed by two home games against Mumbai Indians and Gujarat Titans.
Axar Patel-led team's mid-season itinerary involves a big travel block through South India. Following an away clash with the Chennai Super Kings on April 11, the Capitals will remain in the region for several days to face off against Bengaluru and Hyderabad. However, the schedule shifts heavily in their favor immediately after, with four of their next five matches taking place in Delhi, interrupted only by a short trip to Jaipur to take on the Rajasthan Royals.
As the league stage enters its final weeks, the Capitals will head north to Dharamsala on May 11 to face last year's runners-up, the Punjab Kings. The closing stretch of their campaign appears relatively relaxed in terms of intensity, featuring a six-day break before a home game against the Royals and a subsequent week-long gap before their final away fixture against the Kolkata Knight Riders. After narrowly missing out on the playoffs with a fifth-place finish last year, the team is focused on finding the early consistency needed to secure their first postseason berth since 2021.
