About DC vs LSG

KL Rahul, who moved from LSG to DC in IPL 2025, missed his debut for the franchise due to the birth of his child. Axar Patel, the captain of the Delhi Capitals, won the toss and elected to bowl first at Visakhapatnam against the Lucknow Super Giants. However, LSG openers accepted the challenge and started amazingly with big shots all over the park. However, Aiden Markram got out to Nigam on 15 runs, but Mitchell Marsh continued his attack with new batter Nicholas Pooran. The Australian scored 72 runs off just 36 balls, including 6 sixes and 6 fours, and got out to Mukesh Kumar. Pooran continued to attack and smashed 75 runs off just 30 balls. After these two wickets, the DC’s innings crashed with quick wickets of Rishabh Pant, Ayush Badoni, and Shardul Thakur.
