Both the amazing locked horns at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai, Maharashtra. This game featured all the senior Indian players in the form of KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant, and many more<a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/david-warner-anrich-nortje-to-be-available-from-april-7-in-the-ipl-2022/">. David Warner </a>and Anrich Nortje made a comeback to the<a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/ipl-2022-delhi-capitals-dc-squad-2022-playing-11-schedule/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Delhi Capitals? t</a>eam as well. The IPL 2022 is promoting young talent and based on those lines Sarfaraz Khan was also seen in the game. Here is an in-depth look:&nbsp;</p>

<h2>IPL 2022, LSG VS DC, Delhi Capitals Batting Innings:&nbsp;</h2>



<p>The toss was won by the Lucknow Super Giants and they put the Delhi Capitals into bat. This move has been done by almost every team in the IPL 2022 season. But the results give a 50-50 percent rate of winning while batting second. The dew however is a concern at the stadiums near Mumbai. &nbsp;</p>



<p>The Delhi Capitals got off to a flyer. Prithvi Shaw was doing what he does best, dominate! Prithvi hit 8 fours and 2 sixes in his super entertaining knock. His inning was very overpowering and this can be understood by the numbers. When Prithvi got out, the team score was 67 and 61 of those runs were scored by Prithvi. It was certainly fun to see Prithvi tear into the overseas pacers of Lucknow. In the mandatory powerplay overs, DC scored 52 runs. &nbsp;</p>



<p>Their march however came to a halt with the fall of Prithvi.<a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/prithvi-shaw-fails-fitness-test-at-nca-hardik-pandya-clears-with-flying-colours/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Prithvi </a>fell and Delhi was at 67-1. Rovman Powell was floated up the order at number 3. This move was done after seeing the explosive batting of Prithvi. It was supposed to go well but Rovman was struggling with his timing. David Warner too had a dreadful comeback scoring only 4 runs of 12 balls before perishing. Ravi Bishnoi and K Gowtham were ruling the middle-overs with the ball in hand. They choked the opposition. &nbsp;</p>



<p>Rishabh Pant and Sarfaraz Khan then anchored the innings. They tried to capitalize in the final overs but Jason Holder was very clean with his yorkers. Rishabh, who generally scores 65 to 70 runs in 35 balls managed only 39 runs. But it was the good bowling that has to be given credit. Delhi finished with 149/3.</p>



<h2>Brief Scores:&nbsp;</h2>



<ul><li>Prithvi Shaw: 61 runs of 34 balls. &nbsp;</li><li>Rishabh Pant: 39* runs off 36 balls.&nbsp;</li><li><a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/ravi-bishnoi/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Ravi Bishnoi:</a> 2/22 (4 overs).&nbsp;</li></ul>



<h2>IPL 2022, LSG VS DC, Lucknow Batting Innings (Run-Chase):&nbsp;</h2>



<p>The Lucknow Super Giants started their innings with a bang. <a href="https://www.icccricketschedule.com/quinton-de-kock-announce-test-retirement-with-immediate-effect/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Quinton De Kock </a>was looking in solid touch. The ?left-hand, right-hand" combination of KL Rahul and Quinton De Kock made it difficult for the Delhi bowlers. Quinton looked in solid touch when he smashed his fellow South-African teammate Anrich Nortje for 3 fours and a 6 in the same over. The powerplay ended with LSG getting 48 runs. &nbsp;</p>



<p>Quinton De Kock was negotiating the short-ball well. Rishabh Pant was seen conversing with David Warner regarding the field placements. Kuldeep Yadav got the wicket of KL Rahul when the LSG scoreboard said 73-1. Ewin Lewis walked in next. Lewis who had smashed the CSK bowlers the other day didn?t trouble the scorers as he quickly handed out a catch to Kuldeep. Deepak Hooda was the next to come into bat.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Quinton, however, was on song. He was determined to bat deep. After scoring a quick-fire 50, De Kock settled and played a steadier inning as Lucknow was chasing a small score. After playing around 16 overs, Quinton perished to Kuldeep. This wicket would have done wonders of confidence to Kuldeep. He has been exclusively backed by the Delhi Capitals? management.&nbsp;</p>



<p>After his dismissal, Krunal Pandya walked in. Pandya and Hooda were the pair that was out in the middle. The two had their differences a few months back but looked amazing. Shardul Thakur bowled an exceptional 18<sup>th</sup> over to bring the equation to 19&nbsp;runs of 12 balls.&nbsp;Krunal Pandya hit two lusty blows to turn the game in favor of LSG.&nbsp;Shardul Thakur bowled an elite last over. Ayush and Krunal got the Lucknow Team home safely. They ended with 149/4. &nbsp;</p>



<h2>Brief Scores:&nbsp;</h2>



<ul><li>Lucknow Super Giants win by 7 wickets.&nbsp;</li><li>Quinton De Kock: 80 of 52 balls.&nbsp;</li><li>Kuldeep Yadav: 2/31.&nbsp;</li></ul>

<p><strong>Rishabh Pant penalised with INR 12 Lakhs fine for slow over-rate during DCvsLSG match:</strong> Delhi Capitals skipper Rishabh Pant has been slapped with a fine of INR 12 Lakhs for maintaining a slow over-rate during his side's last night's fixture against LSG. Reportedly, Delhi Capitals crossed the time barrier and couldn?t complete their innings within the given time frame which prompted the official to penalise the skipper.</p>



<p>To make things even worse, Rishabh Pant and Co registered their second loss of the tournament as they couldn?t restrict Lucknow Super Giants scoring 150 runs in 20 overs.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Now Rishabh Pant has joined hands with Mumbai Indians (MI) skipper Rohit Sharma and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) skipper Kane Williamson, who have also been fined for the same offence earlier in the ongoing Indian Premier League season.</p>



<p>?The Delhi Capitals have been fined after they maintained a slow over-rate during their TATA Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 match against Lucknow Super Giants at the DY Patil Stadium, Navi Mumbai on April 7,? said IPL in a media release.</p>



<p>The punishment will get harsh if the offences are committed repeatedly and even lead to a one-match ban.</p>



<p>?As it was the team?s first offence of the season under the IPL?s Code of Conduct relating to minimum over rate offences, Delhi Capitals captain Rishabh Pant was fined Rs 12 lakhs.?</p>

<h2><strong>Delhi continues to struggle despite Warner, Nortje's availability:</strong></h2>



<p>Delhi Capitals continued their poor runs even though they had the services of David Warner and Anrich Nortje in the match against Lucknow Super Giants. Both the players had an unforgettable outing against LSG.</p>



<p>While David Warner couldn?t score much for his team, Anrich Nortje was banned from bowling his complete quota of 4 overs after he delivered two waist-high no balls to the batter. Nortje was taken off the attack following his two dangerous beamers.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Barring Prithvi Shaw, no other DC batter looked comfortable taking on the bowlers. Shaw 34 balls 61 to take Delhi off to a flying start. However, as soon as his wicket fell, things were brought back in control by the Lucknow bowlers. KL Rahul-led Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) sealed the game by 6 wickets.</p>



<p>Delhi Capitals will play its next match against Kolkata Knight Riders on April 10 in the Brabourne Stadium while Lucknow will face Rajasthan Royals in Wankhede Stadium on April 10.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="dc-vs-lsg-match-summary"><strong>DC vs LSG Match Summary</strong></h2>



<p>After inviting Delhi To bat first, LSG made a brilliant opening with the scalp of dangerous Jake Fraser-McGurk for a duck. Pacer Arshad Khan provided the first breakthrough. However, following that wicket, LSG couldn't cash in more of them as DC stitched timely partnerships.</p>



<p>Abhishek Porel (58 runs) and Shai Hope (38 runs) added 92 runs to the total, then it was Rishabh Pant (33 runs) and Tristin Stubbs (57* runs), who stitched a decent 47-run partnership to keep the scoreboard moving. </p>

<p>Although Delhi Capitals (DC) has won its last league stage fixture against LSG and made it to the top half of the IPL Points Table, still the playoff spot is a distant dream for them. Their net run rate, which is negative, is going to give them a hard time. </p>



<p>LSG, too, has a similar issue. Though they have one game left in their IPL 2024 run, their playoff dream is going to be a long shot. They have a net run rate worse than DC. </p>



<p>Both the teams are technically/mathematically still in the playoff race, but there aren't any solid chances for them to qualify.</p>



<p>In the meantime, with LSG's loss against DC, Rajasthan Royals (RR) became the second team in the IPL 2024 to qualify for the playoffs. RR is currently placed second in the IPL points table.</p>

<p><strong>Impact Substitute:</strong> Akash Singh / Shahbaz Ahmed / Manimaran Siddarth</p>
<h3><strong>Key Tactics &amp; Matchups</strong></h3>
<ul>
<li>DC has only two left-handers in the top order (Axar Patel and Abhishek Porel), which gives LSG’s spinners a better chance to control the middle overs.</li>
<li>LSG’s top order will rely heavily on Marsh, Pant, and Pooran to give them a solid start.</li>
</ul>
<h2><strong>DC vs LSG Match Prediction</strong></h2>
<p>This match is expected to be a closely fought battle, given both teams have their strengths and weaknesses.</p>
<p>The team bowling first is likely to have an edge due to the dew factor. However, given LSG’s weaker bowling attack and DC’s home advantage in Vizag, Delhi Capitals might just have the upper hand.<strong> </strong>DC is predicted to win unless LSG’s big hitters pull off something special.</p>

KL Rahul will miss Delhi Capitals' IPL 2025 opener against Lucknow Super Giants due to personal reasons, as he returned home to be with his pregnant wife, Athiya Shetty. Rahul, who moved from Lucknow to Delhi this season, trained with the team but was not named in the playing XI. Delhi, now led by Axar Patel, has a new coaching setup with Hemang Badani as head coach. Both teams struggled last season, finishing sixth and seventh, and failed to make the playoffs.

<p>IPL 2025 is seeing a third dose of adventure. The noise of the explosive combat of Hyderabad and Rajasthan did not calm that the team of Lucknow as they wreaked havoc on the ground versus the Delhi Capitals in Vizag. </p>
<p>LSG batsman Nicholas Puran was seen dealing in sixes as he showed a show of sixes in the over of Delhi all-rounder Tristan Stubbs, which echoed the entire stadium. By hitting consecutive sixes, the Trinidadian created an amazing atmosphere for the Vizag crowd. </p>
<h2><strong>Delhi Bowlers were smashed to all parts of the Ground</strong></h2>
<p>Axar Patel, the new skipper of the Capitals won the toss and asked the Rishabh Pant-led LSG to bat first. This decision of Axar came back to haunt him as the Lucknow batting unit went after the Delhi bowlers like hungry lions. </p>
<p>First opening batter Mitchell Marsh smashed them to all parts of the ground and then, Nicholas Pooran entertained the crowd by slamming four consecutive big sixes. The Southpaw brought up his fifty in mere 23 balls and this master stroke of sending him out to bat at number three worked in a perfect manner. </p>
<h2><strong>28 runs in one over was smashed</strong></h2>
<p>Pooran appeared in a different mood in Tristan Stubbs' over. He honored the first ball of this over, but his mood changed after that. He hit 4 sixes one after the other and hit the last ball out of the ground. In the entire over, the Southpaw slammed 28 runs and touched the 70 run mark in just 27 deliveries. </p>

<h2><strong>Lucknow's Fire</strong></h2>
<p>Lucknow's team started tremendously against Delhi. Opener Mitchell Marsh started the innings in a rambling manner. He scored 72 runs in just 36 balls thanks to 6 fours and as many sixes. However, Captain Pant was dismissed without opening the account. Pooran also missed a century as Starc sent his stumps for a walk at a score of 75 in 30 balls.</p>

<p><strong>DC vs LSG: </strong>Ashutosh Sharma, remember the name! What a Match, folks! It was an absolute drama at Vizag as Delhi Capitals defeated Lucknow Super Giants in a high-scoring thrilling contest by 1 wicket. LSG were not going to lose it easily but Ashutosh Sharma and Vipraj Nigam were just incredible in the game.</p>
<p data-start="0" data-end="340" class="">The game that once seemed out of Delhi Capitals' reach took a dramatic turn. At the halfway mark, Lucknow Super Giants looked to have sealed the deal, with all the big names back in the hut. But little did they know that a 20-year-old Vipraj Nigam, making his IPL debut, and Ashutosh Sharma were about to script an unforgettable comeback.</p>
<p data-start="342" data-end="604" class="">Incredible scenes unfolded as the DC dugout erupted with joy, struggling to believe what had just transpired. Ashutosh, overwhelmed with emotion, swung his bat in celebration, making animated gestures as he soaked in the moment. A night of pure magic in the IPL!</p>
<p>Let's take a look at the Match summary and the Updated IPL Points Table:</p>
<h2><strong>DC vs LSG Match Summary</strong></h2>
<p data-start="213" data-end="632" class="">The fourth match of TATA IPL 2025 saw Delhi Capitals take on Lucknow Super Giants at Vishakhapatnam. The pitch was a batting paradise, offering little assistance to the bowlers. Axar Patel won the toss and opted to bowl first. KL Rahul was unavailable for the match as he and his wife were blessed with a baby girl. Lucknow, with a relatively inexperienced bowling lineup, faced a well-structured Delhi Capitals side.</p>
<p data-start="682" data-end="1099" class="">Aiden Markram and Mitchell Marsh opened the innings for Lucknow, providing an explosive start with 40 runs in the first four overs. Markram's dismissal brought Nicholas Pooran to the crease, and together, the duo set the scoreboard racing. Their rapid 87-run partnership propelled LSG to 133 in under 12 overs. Marsh played a sensational knock, scoring 72 off just 36 balls before losing his wicket to Mukesh Kumar.</p>
<p data-start="682" data-end="1099" class=""><img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202503/image_430x256_67e199ed24b9b.jpg" alt=""></p>
<p data-start="1101" data-end="1449" class="">However, Marsh’s departure didn’t slow Pooran down. In the very next over, he launched a brutal assault on Tristan Stubbs, smashing 28 runs with four sixes and a boundary. But Lucknow’s momentum took a hit when Kuldeep Yadav dismissed Rishabh Pant for a duck, followed by Mitchell Starc rattling Pooran’s stumps. By the 15th over, LSG were 169/4.</p>
<p data-start="1451" data-end="1715" class=""><img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202503/image_430x256_67e199ea48adc.jpg" alt=""></p>
<p data-start="1451" data-end="1715" class="">Pooran’s wicket triggered a collapse, with Lucknow losing five wickets in the final 26 balls. Mohit Sharma bowled a brilliant last over, but David Miller provided the perfect finish, smashing two massive sixes off the last two balls to push LSG’s total past 200.</p>
<p data-start="1774" data-end="2160" class="">Chasing 210 for victory, Delhi Capitals needed a solid start, but Shardul Thakur had other plans. Unsold in the mega auction, he was brought in as a replacement for the unavailable Mohsin Khan. Given the new ball, he struck twice in the very first over, putting DC in early trouble. Things got worse when they lost a third wicket in the second over, leaving Lucknow firmly in control.</p>
<p data-start="2162" data-end="2347" class=""><img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202503/image_430x256_67e199f0ba068.jpg" alt=""></p>
<p data-start="2162" data-end="2347" class="">With DC struggling, Axar Patel and Faf du Plessis attempted to counter-attack. However, just as they neared the end of the powerplay, du Plessis fell, and DC found themselves at 58/4.</p>
<p data-start="2349" data-end="2746" class="">At this stage, it seemed like the match was slipping away from Delhi, but Tristan Stubbs had other ideas. He showcased his power-hitting abilities, breathing new life into DC’s chase. Ashutosh Sharma joined the carnage, and together, they put LSG’s bowlers under pressure. Stubbs hammered two huge sixes off M Siddharth, but Siddharth had the last laugh, clean-bowling him on the very next ball.</p>
<p data-start="2748" data-end="2916" class="">Vipraj Nigam was the next to step up, and he completely disrupted Lucknow’s plans. Blasting 39 runs off just 15 balls, he, along with Ashutosh, kept DC’s hopes alive. However, a timely strategic timeout helped LSG regain control. On the very first ball after the break, Vipraj lost his wicket. Despite this setback, Ashutosh kept the fight going, smashing 16 runs in the 18th over.</p>
<p data-start="2748" data-end="2916" class=""><img class="img-additional" src="https://admin.icccricketschedule.com/uploads/images/202503/image_430x256_67e199e775656.jpg" alt=""></p>
<p data-start="2748" data-end="2916" class="">Ashutosh Sharma got fifty done in just 28 balls and the job was not done yet. From over 60 runs needed from 30 balls, the equation was now just 6 needed of 6! Shabaz Ahmed got the last over and Ashutosh smacked the third ball of the over for a six and won the high-pressure game for Delhi Capitals by 1 wicket. </p>

<p dir="ltr"><span>In the LSG vs DC pitch report, DC holds a slight edge. Their batting line-up includes players like KL Rahul who is in great form and has already scored over 300 runs. Kuldeep Yadav has taken 12 wickets this season, making him the third-highest wicket-taker. </span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span>From Lucknow’s side, Nicholas Pooran and Rishabh Pant are in form, but their spin bowling relies solely on Ravi Bishnoi, who has taken just 3 wickets, which is a weak point. </span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span>Delhi's record of 5-2 makes them more favorable in today's match, and if Delhi wins, they can strengthen their position, while Lucknow could drop to the seventh spot, which could hurt their chances of making the playoffs.</span></p>
