Who will conquer this epic battle between two of the most competitive teams this year? Keep scrolling to know the predictions of the match Lucknow Super Giants vs Delhi Capitals.
Both Lucknow and Delhi will be playing in the first game of the competition, and they are both keen to get their seasons begun with a winning start.
Unfortunately, none of the two teams would be able to put together their starting lineup at full strength for the next game. Due to national obligations, Quinton de Kock will be missed by LSG, while Mustafizur Rahman, Lungi Ngidi, and Anrich Nortje won’t be available for DC.
KL Rahul-led team seems to be much more balanced, at least on paper, and as a result, they would count on themselves to upset a Delhi Capitals team that is significantly weakened. David Warner & team on the other hand, still have a lot of match-winners in their ranks and might compete with Lucknow. Thus, a thrilling game is predicted.
Pitch Report: Lucknow Super Giants vs Delhi Capitals
The Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium’s playing surface has a tendency to be on the slower side, thus hitters will need to spend some time in the middle to get used to the wicket’s speed. Five of the nine T20Is that have taken place there have been won by the squad that bats first. As a result, the side that wins the toss in the next game could be more motivated to establish a target.
Lucknow Super Giants (LSG)
KL Rahul (c), Deepak Hooda, Kyle Mayers, Nicholas Pooran (wk), Marcus Stoinis, Krunal Pandya, Ayush Badoni, Jaydev Unadkat, Mark Wood, Ravi Bishnoi, Avesh Khan.
Delhi Capitals (DC)
David Warner (c), Mitchell Marsh, Prithvi Shaw, Rilee Russouw Sarfaraz Khan (wk), Axar Patel, Rovman Powell, Kamlesh Nagarkoti, Kuldeep Yadav, Chetan Sakariya, Khaleel Ahmed
Predictions As Below
Best Batter
KL Rahul:
KL Rahul has scored 3889 runs in 109 games with a strike rate of 136.22 and has been a hit machine in the IPL. The batsman is well-versed in all possible strokes, so it wouldn’t be surprising to see him put on a batting show against the Delhi Capitals.
Best Bowler
Kuldeep Yadav:
In the previous season of the prestigious league, Kuldeep Yadav was Delhi’s main bowling attack, taking 21 wickets in 14 games. In the match on Saturday, the Indian spinner will try to work his magic and confuse LSG’s hitters with his variations.
