LSG after their 3 consecutive win is going to play their next match with Pant led Capitals.
KL Rahul is leading his team with a gradual strategic moves and it helps them to win the match one after the other. One more interesting thing about the team is that they always make target of around 160 runs and still able to defend it every time. It clearly shows the strong team lineup and strategy that captain and coach build. Lucknow Super Giants is one of those team in IPL that has the best stats overall.
Having a great batting lineup helps them to score big runs but a strong bowling lineup help the team to build pressure on other team. In their last match against Gujarat Titans we can clearly see the importance of a good bowling lineup. Yash Thakur took 5 wickets and become the first bowler of IPL 2024 taking 5 wickets in a single match.
Delhi Capitals on the other hand is suffering a lot in the 17th season of IPL. After Rishabh Pant’s comeback the team sees a lot of improvement in their batting lineup helps them to score big runs. But the team is still suffering from a lack of good bowling lineup.
It increase the pressure on the team especially during the opposition target chase. Moreover, India’s pitch are more prone to dew which leads to a problem for the bowlers. In such a crucial moments a flexible bowler came into play. If you have abundance of versatility in your bowling lineup then you have an advantage.

Team Analysis of Delhi Capitals (UPDATED)
Delhi Capitals have the best players in both batting and bowling lineup. With Rishabh Pant, David Warner, Tristan Stubbs, Abishek Porel, and Prithvi Shaw. Even though Pant has not played last year but still he is performing like a seasoned player.Last year Mitchell Marsh and Prithvi Shaw struggled but this year they are also very aggressively playing. After Warner’s wicket Prithvi Shaw took the responsibility of the team and helped his team in getting a good runs on the board.
The problem with Delhi lies in their batting lineup. The top order batsman are amazing and even to the five holer they have a strong lineup but after 6th place they don’t have a strong batsman who could handle the pressure of run chase after 5 wickets down.
Similarly, in the bowling department Khaleel Ahmad is doing great job at bowling and fielding. But the players like Ishant Sharma and Anrich Nortje is not able to take as much as wickets they should take which in result increase pressure on the team. More wickets taken increase the chance of team winning percentage.
