Pitch Report :

The surface at the Ekana Cricket Stadium is a batting-friendly surface, and is expected to assist the Batters once again here. Pacers might get some help towards the latter half of the match while spinners may come in handy in the middle overs. If the first few overs batsmen get out with patience without losing wickets, then they can score runs at a fast pace in the middle overs and the end overs. Along with this, the due factor is often seen in the field of Lucknow. In such a situation, whichever team wins the toss today can decide to bowl first.

The average first innings score on this wicket is 165 runs.

Preview :

The 26th game of the IPL 2024 will face the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) against the Delhi Capitals (DC) at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow on Friday, April 12.

This season, LSG is doing well, sitting in third place with 3 wins from 4 matches so far. They lost their first game but have won every match since.

DC, however, is having a tough season. They've only won 1 out of 5 matches and are currently at the bottom of the league standings. Their only win came against CSK, but they're still trying to figure out the best team lineup. This game is important for both teams: LSG wants to keep winning, and DC is looking to climb up from the bottom of the table.

The Lucknow Super Giants are the favourites against the Delhi Capitals, thanks to their strong historical record and current form. LSG's powerful batting lineup, including KL Rahul, Quinton De Kock, and Nicholas Pooran, is expected to dominate. Marcus Stoinis is also back in form, boosting their middle order.

LSG's bowling is equally formidable, with Yash Thakur's recent five-wicket haul and Naveen-ul-Haq's consistent performance making them a threat to DC's batsmen. While DC has its share of firepower in Tristan Stubbs and the duo of David Warner and Rishabh Pant adding solidity, their overall team dynamics and struggles might hinder their performance.
