DC - Jake Fraser-McGurk, Abishek Porel, Shai Hope, Rishabh Pant (c & wk), Tristan Stubbs, Gulbadin Naib, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Mukesh Kumar, Ishant Sharma, and Khaleel Ahmed.
LSG - KL Rahul (C and WK), Quinton de Kock, Marcus Stoinis, Nicholas Pooran, Ayush Badoni, Krunal Pandya, Deepak Hooda, Yash Thakur, Ravi Bishnoi, Naveen-ul-Haq, and Arshad Khan.
Delhi Capitals (DC) had played their last game without Rishabh Pant and they lost that match versus RCB yesterday. But now Skipper Pant will be back for the crucial tie against LSG tomorrow.
The inclusion of Rishabh Pant as just a keeper batter gives a good balance to the side. DC needs to win this match to stay in the hunt for the playoff qualification.
Pant and Co are on the sixth spot in the current points table. While Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) will aim for a brilliant comeback after their thrashing loss against Sunrisers Hyderabad.
LSG lost that match inside the 10 overs and SRH made a mockery of the run chase. They won that game with all the ten wickets intact.
The Super Giants team has to boost their run rate as well after the 10 wicket loss against the Orange Army team of Hyderabad. Rahul and his men are on the seventh spot in the points table of TATA IPL 2024 and their NRR (Net Run Rate) is also in the minus, which is not a great sign for them. That’s why LSG need to win this contest quite handsomely to stay alive for the playoff contention.
These two teams had met each other in the TATA IPL 2024 season as well, where Delhi Capitals bagged their first-ever win over Lucknow Super Giants when that match was played in Lucknow.
Till now, LSG and DC have played four games in the history of the Indian Premier League. Delhi has won one match while The Super Giants team has won three matches.
1. 2024 – DC won by six wickets in Lucknow
