The performance of Delhi Capitals led by captain Rishabh Pant has been average in this IPL. The team has played 13 matches so far, winning six of them and they are looking for the next seventh win to improve their net run rate to have a chance to qualify for the IPL
playoffs. Delhi Capitals won their last home match against Rajasthan Royals by 20 runs. This win has kept them relevant and alive in the playoff race. There will be pressure on both the teams to win this match.
Rishabh Pant will return to the XI to lead the team after being banned for one match.
Lucknow Super Giants will also want to end the off-field drama by showing their matchwinning ability on the field. Let us tell you that LSG is returning to this match after a five-day break. In the last match, they were defeated by SRH, as they chased 166 runs in less than 10 overs and won with 10 wickets to spare. The KL Rahul-led giants are still in the race to make it to the playoffs and they still have four points. This match is a must-win for them as well. Surely both the teams are going to play with all their might in this match.
