LSG vs DC Team Preview

Lucknow Super Giants

Lucknow is grappling with a shaky bowling attack, especially alongside Rishabh Pant. Early on, Shardul delivered sharp pace bowling, but he’s flopped hard in the last two games; only Avesh Khan holds the pace attack together, with no one stepping up to help, as Bumrah’s tied up with BGT 2024-25. Mayank Yadav has rejoined the LSG camp, but it’s unclear when he’ll play; if he suits up for the upcoming game against DC, LSG could dominate, though that’s still up in the air.

On the batting front, LSG leans heavily on openers Mitchell and Marsh, plus Pooran; if one hits a 50+ score, the team fights for a decent total, and if two shine, they win. But the middle order, with Pant, is a headache; he struggles with captaincy and immature batting skills, and as captain, resting him isn’t an option over others. Big thanks go to Badoni and a special shoutout to Abdul Samad, who consistently adds a killer finishing touch with quick runs in the death overs. One key factor hinges on the Bishnoi and Rathi duo, as Lucknow’s pitch favors spinners, while the opposition boasts Kuldeep and Axar, who outmatch Rathi and Bishnoi with their experience.

Delhi Capitals

Delhi Capitals’ struggle with openers has plagued the team, leading them to rest out-of-form JFM and promote Karun Nair as opener; though it didn’t click, the middle and lower order, with KL, Axar, and Ashutosh, have stepped up to cover the opener crisis. Giving Donovan Ferreira a chance also flopped. DC’s recent losses stem from poor showings by Starc and Mukesh, but Lucknow’s spin-friendly pitch will boost Axar, Kuldeep, and Vipraj.

DC must tackle their powerplay bowling woes by handing at least two overs, one each to Kuldeep and Axar, especially if Mukesh and Starc leak runs. Instead of leaning on Mukesh in the death overs, they should rely on Starc for the last over, leveraging his experience to nail yorkers and tame the batters. If DC sharpens these areas, a comeback is within reach.

Pitch and Weather Conditions

The Ekana Stadium pitch could favour spin bowlers. In IPL matches, the average score here is expected to hover around 169 runs. The pitch might have a bit of grass, giving fast bowlers an edge in the early overs. The red soil pitch offers good bounce and pace to pacers, promising a fair duel between bat and ball. Unlike past years, Lucknow’s pitch feels a bit different this IPL season; batting used to be tough here, but now batters are racking up runs with confidence.

The weather in Kolkata is expected to stay warm, with temperatures ranging from 30°C to 33°C during the match. Humidity might hover around 15%, and the sky should stay clear, and rain disrupting the game seems almost impossible.
