Which match do these teams belong to?
These are the match-specific XIs at Arun Jaitley Stadium in the 2024–25 Ranji Trophy. A squad can include reserves who never enter the playing XI; the lists here deliberately separate selected players from the wider squad.
See our Railways vs Delhi scorecard and result for innings totals, the winning margin and key performances.
Was Virat Kohli in Delhi’s team?
Yes. Kohli was part of the selected XI for this fixture. Badoni was the captain and Rajvanshi the designated wicketkeeper; these are separate responsibilities.
How to check players for another fixture
For a new match, confirm the date and competition before relying on a team list. Ranji Trophy is first-class cricket, whereas Vijay Hazare Trophy and Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy are limited-overs competitions. Selection in one format does not establish selection in another.
Check the announced XI after the toss. A pre-match squad, probable XI or prediction should not be presented as a confirmed team sheet.
