IPL 2024: Delhi Capitals And Lucknow Super Giants Meet With Playoffs Hopes On A Sticky Wicket (preview)

Lucknow Super Giants: Both Delhi Capitals and Lucknow Super Giants find themselves on the same boat – having 12 points each in the standings and net run rate in negative. With their playoffs hopes on a sticky wicket, both DC and LSG meet at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Tuesday with an eye to get those two crucial points and keep themselves in contention for a knockouts spot.

LSG will be back in IPL action after a five-day break post a ten-wicket drubbing at the hands of Sunrisers Hyderabad. All the talk from the LSG batters’ inept performance barring 55 not out and an unbeaten 48 from Ayush Badoni and Nicholas Pooran respectively, and the inability of their bowlers to stop a marauding Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma was taken away by team owner Sanjiv Goenka’s dressing down to captain KL Rahul in full public view.

With Goenka being extensively criticised for his conduct towards Rahul and the majority holding a view that such talks should be held privately, it will now be apt for the LSG skipper to draw everyone’s attention by coming out all guns blazing with a coherent performance in all departments to boost their playoffs chances.
