Coming into the tournament with hopes of billions, Lucknow has shown their mantle against the giants in the competition. They are coming off after beating CSK and SRH in back-to-back games. They came very close to comfort in the previous game against Sunrisers but they were able to dig out a win in the end. They have a formidable batting lineup and most of the players are in form. They have few issues in the bowling department though with Andrew Tye getting hit all over the park in the last match.
Lucknow Super Giants Predicted Lineup
KL Rahul (c), Quinton de Kock (wk), Manish Pandey, Evin Lewis, Deepak Hooda, Ayush Badoni, Krunal Pandya, Jason Holder, Andrew Tye, Ravi Bishnoi, Avesh Khan
Delhi Capitals
Delhi will be looking to get the season on track after losing to another newbie Gujarat. In the last game, Delhi was not able to chase 172 runs and lost by 14 runs. With the arrival of David Warner, the team looks much more balanced now. The bowling department is doing a fairly decent job, but with Warner's arrival, Delhi looks like a whole different side now.
Delhi Capitals Predicted Lineup:
Prithvi Shaw, David Warner, Mandeep Singh, Rishabh Pant (c & wk), Lalit Yadav, Rovman Powell, Shardul Thakur, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Khaleel Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman
