DEL vs LKN Match Preview

Delhi Capitals suffered a crushing defeat to RCB in their last match which has hampered their chances of qualifying for the playoffs. Skipper Rishabh Pant will be back for this match which is a good sign for them. They have a young batting order capable of destroying any bowling attack in the world. Jake Fraser-McGurk and Abishek Porel have been superb throughout the season, although, David Warner's lack of runs have been a big concern. They also have the firepower down the order in the form of Tristan Stubbs and Axar Patel. In the bowling department, they have the experience of Ishant Sharma upfront. Rasikh Salam has been superb in the middle overs and at the death with his variations. They also have two quality spinners in the form of Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav.

Meanwhile, Lucknow Super Giants have 12 points in 12 matches so far but their net run rate is the biggest problem. They are coming on the back of two disastrous defeats in their last two games. They need runs fromt their top order batters KL Rahul and Quinton de Kock. Marcus Stoinis and Nicholas Pooran have been consistent throughout the season and this is the time when their team needs them the most. Youngster Ayush Badoni's form has been encouraging as well. They have an inexperienced bowling attack with Mohsin Khan, Yash Thakur, and Naveen-ul-Haq being the frontline seam-bowling options. Ravi Bishnoi and Krunal Pandya haven't been at their best so far and LSG will hope for their experienced spinners to be be at their best.
