LSG vs DC IPL 2024: Ekana Cricket Stadium Pitch Report and Weather Forecast

LSG vs DC IPL 2024: On the verge of Hattrick of Losses Delhi Capitals are set to play Lucknow Super Giants, who have a Hattrick of wins after a loss in the opening encounter. The contest is set to be played at Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow Today on 12 April.

Sitting on the last of the Points Table, Delhi Capitals have faced four defeats in all five games till now. They have lost to Punjab Kings, Rajasthan Royals, Kolkata Knight Riders, and the latest to Mumbai Indians. They only won a game against Chennai Super Kings, but they have been an unbalanced side apart from the game against CSK this season.

Delhi has seen a number of mishaps spanning several departments. To begin with, it defied sense for Prithvi Shaw to miss the first few games, and the young opener has made an impression with a few big punches, including a fifty against the Mumbai Indians in the previous game.

The bowling assault has been somewhat affected by Mukesh Kumar's injury and the inconsistent bowling. Marsh's exclusion is the latest blow to DC, whose sole full performance came against the Chennai Super Kings.

The Lucknow Super Giants had a loss to begin the season, but they have subsequently won three straight. They may think about setting up a surface similar to that on Friday against the visiting Delhi Capitals, as their most recent success came against the Gujarat Titans at home on a turf that was favorable to spin.

Although the batting has not yet reached its peak, the bowling attack has compensated for it. While Mayank Yadav's blazing speed has garnered attention, the other bowlers have also performed admirably. While captain KL Rahul has not yet produced much, LSG's confidence will be boosted by the fact that they have won three of their last four games.

Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow Pitch Report

The wicket would vary in each game and there would be no consistent pattern, as demonstrated by the Lucknow pitch in the first two matches. In the first match between LSG and Punjab Kings, both teams came quite close to reaching 200, but in the second match, the Lucknow unit managed to defend a mere 163 and defeated Gujarat Titans by a significant margin.

A similar wicket as against GT is expected for this game as well. When batting first, a score of 160?170 is usually fine; anything more is a bonus. On this surface, teams prefer to bat first since it grips and turns a lot in the second half.
