The Lucknow Super Giants will face the Delhi Capitals in the 15th match of the IPL 2022 on Thursday, April 7, at the Dr. DY Patil Sports Academy in Mumbai. LSG are currently ranked fifth in the points table, while DC is ranked seventh.
LSG defeated SRH by 12 runs in the previous match, successfully defending 169 runs while restricting them to 157 runs. Skipper KL Rahul returned to form and batted an inning of 68 runs. Deepak Hooda was also consistently performing for the team, adding 51 runs to the team’s total, bringing the number up to a respectable total.
However, DC lost their previous match against Gujarat Titans while chasing 171 runs. Due to poor team support, Rishabh Pant failed to help the team win despite hitting 43 runs. Their struggle with the opening batsman continues, and the team is still missing Shikhar Dhawan somewhere. Opening Experienced batter, Prithvi Shaw will have a lot of pressure on him to get the team off to a good start and win.

LSG is in excellent form, and with KL Rahul’s return to form, they seem to be a more balanced side. They are confident after chasing down a total of 211 runs against CSK in this tournament, and the poor performance of Delhi’s opening batsmen may not provide them with the desired result.
