Highest Partnership against DC in IPL

Delhi Capitals have been one of those teams that has yet to get their hands on the championship. They are the oldest franchises in the Indian Premier League that have yet to be crowned. Although they have shown a bit of progress in recent seasons, DC hasn’t made it big. One of the prime reasons for that is their inconsistency.

DC is the only team to finish last in four IPL seasons. That is one unwanted record that no other team wants to get. Just like that, a number of teams and players have enjoyed their time against Delhi in the league. Such records will be covered here. This will feature some of the biggest IPL partnerships against DC in history.
