Another big match is going to take place in IPL 2024. This time there will be a clash between Lucknow Super Giants captained by KL Rahul and Delhi Capitals captained by Rishabh Pant. This match will be played at Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. After the ban of one match, Rishabh Pant will once again be seen captaining his team. But before the match starts, you should know what is the head to head record between DC vs LSG and how will the Delhi pitch be on Tuesday.
See head to head report of both teams
In the history of IPL, Delhi Capitals and Lucknow Super Giants have clashed only 4 times. Among these, Delhi team has won one match, while Lucknow Super Giants team has managed to win three matches. In such a situation, LSG seems to have the upper hand, but this match will be played in Delhi. Any team can be defeated on its home ground. It should also be kept in mind that whenever these two teams have clashed, the score has never crossed 200. Delhi's highest score against Lucknow is 189 runs, while Lucknow's highest score against Delhi is 195 runs.
Arun Jaitley Stadium pitch report
The stadium in Delhi which is now known as Arun Jaitley Stadium was earlier Ferozshah Kotla. If we talk about the pitch here, generally the batsmen have got help. The stadium is small so more fours and sixes are hit. If something similar is seen this time too, it will not be a big deal. In this year's IPL, the matches held in this stadium of Delhi have crossed the 200 mark several times. That means for the first time both the teams will get a chance to score more than 200. The spinners may get some help here.
Position of Delhi and Lucknow in point table
If we talk about the position of both the teams in the IPL points table, then both the teams seem to be in almost the same boat. Delhi team has played 13 matches and won 6 of them and lost 7. The team has 12 points and is in sixth place. Whereas LSG has played 12 matches and won 6 of them and lost 6. This also has 12 digits. The good thing for LSG is that they have 2 league matches left, when Delhi will have their last chance. However, both the teams are still in the race for the playoffs. In such a situation, there is every possibility that the conflict will become difficult.
The playing eleven of both the teams can be like this.
Probable playing XI of Delhi Capitals
David Warner, Jack Fraser-McGurk, Abhishek Porel, Rishabh Pant (c, wk), Shai Hope, Tristan Stubbs, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Mukesh Kumar, Ishant Sharma, Khaleel Ahmed
Probable playing XI of Lucknow Super Giants
Quinton de Kock, KL Rahul (captain, wicketkeeper), Marcus Stoinis, Nicholas Pooran, Ayush Badoni, Deepak Hooda, Krunal Pandya, Mohsin Khan/Arshin Kulkarni, Yash Thakur, Ravi Bishnoi, Naveen Ul Haq.
