IPL Winner 2020 Prediction - DC vs MI Final: Delhi Capital to win its maiden title because of this?

IPL 2020 prediction: Cricket is a game of uncertainty and any team that does well on a particular day could win it, but there is an important factor in favour of Delhi Capitals which could sail it through the IPL 2020 final and crown it a winner. Shreyas Iyer-led team will take on Mumbai Indians in their maiden final appearance in IPL. Though Mumbai Indians come as hot favourites in the IPL 2020 final, but Delhi Capitals could be a winner if history repeats for this strange factor.  

A peek into past winners of the IPL throws an interesting detail that could help Delhi Capitals win its maiden IPL title. Well, here is this strange fact that might have gone unnoticed.
IPL 2008, IPL 2012, IPL 2016  – All of them have something in common. All these editions took place in a leap year and a new team was crowned as the champion in each of them. Three leap years and three new champions. So coming back to this edition,  IPL 2020 – again a leap year and if history is to repeat itself then a new team – which is Delhi Capitals in this case, will win the IPL 2020 title.

In the maiden edition of IPL in 2008 (leap year), Rajasthan Royals were crowned as the first-ever champions of the competition, beating CSK in the final.

Gautam Gambhir-led Kolkata Knight Riders won the IPL 2012 trophy, again in a leap year – getting the better of CSK in the final. This was the first ever title for KKR.

Then in the last leap year, in 2016, David Warner’s SunRisers Hyderabad won their maiden IPL crown, edging past RCB in the final.

So if the past is anything to go by, then the Delhi Capitals will get the better of Mumbai Indians in this leap year of 2020. Mumbai Indians have already beaten the Capitals three times this season and thus the underdogs would be itching for revenge.
