IPL 2024: Fifties By Porel, Stubbs Carry Delhi Capitals To 208/4 Against LSG
Lucknow Super Giants: Sublime half-centuries by Abishek Porel and Tristan Stubbs propelled the Delhi Capitals to reach a massive 208/4 in 20 overs against Lucknow Super Giants in Match 64 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium here on Tuesday. On a high-scoring pitch with short boundaries, Porel impressed yet, again with a 33-ball 58, laced with five fours and four sixes, while sharing a 92-run stand with Shai Hope.
After taking his time, Stubbs produced a stunning late onslaught to remain unbeaten on 57 off 25 balls, hitting three boundaries and four maximums to lift DC past 200, as the hosts amassed 72 runs off the last five overs.
Pushed into batting first, DC were dealt a huge blow on the second ball when Jake Fraser-McGurk mistimed a loft to be caught at long-on off Arshad Khan for a two-ball duck. Porel continued to impress by upper-cutting Mohsin Khan for six, followed by hitting three fours and a six in Arshad's second over yielding 21 runs.
