New Delhi, April 29 (CRICKETNMORE) After Chennai Super Kings (CSK), Delhi Capitals have become the second team to secure a berth in the playoffs in the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL).

The Delhi-based franchise had last reached the playoffs seven years ago. But after that there was a steep decline in their performance for the next six seasons. In 2013 and 2014, DC (which was then Delhi Daredevils) finished at the bottom of the points table. In 2015, the Delhi franchise ended their campaign at the seventh spot and in the next two years, they moved to a slightly more respectable sixth position.
