IPL 2025: Delhi Capitals vs Lucknow Super Giants – Stats Preview

Delhi Capitals will start their IPL 2025 campaign against Lucknow Super Giants at the Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium, Visakhapatnam on Monday. Rishabh Pant and KL Rahul have swapped their teams and both the wicket-keeper batters would look to make a fresh start with their new franchise.

LSG doesn’t have a lot of experience in their pace battery and it would be a major concern for them moving into the season. However, they have a lot of quality in their batting line-up and they would look to cover up. A lot of onus will be on Ravi Bishnoi in the middle overs and the leg-spinner would look to be at his best.

Delhi Capitals, on the other hand, ticks most of the boxes in their squad and it would be interesting to note how Axar Patel would lead for the first time in the IPL. Patel is currently full of confidence and he would look to carry the same form in the lucrative T20 tournament.

Stats Preview:

In-form Karun Nair needs four runs to complete 1500 runs in the IPL. 

LSG captain Rishabh Pant needs four fours to complete 300 boundaries in the tournament.

Mitchell Marsh needs two fours to reach 50 boundaries in the IPL.

Ayush Badoni needs four fours to complete 50 boundaries in the IPL.

David Miller needs 76 runs to reach 3000 runs in the IPL.

Shardul Thakur needs six wickets to complete 100 scalps in the IPL.

Lucknow Super Giants Squad: Arshin Kulkarni, Mitchell Marsh, Rishabh Pant(w/c), Nicholas Pooran, Ayush Badoni, David Miller, Abdul Samad, Shardul Thakur, RS Hangargekar, Ravi Bishnoi, Shamar Joseph, Akash Deep, Shahbaz Ahmed, Manimaran Siddharth, Akash Maharaj Singh, Aiden Markram, Avesh Khan, Himmat Singh, Matthew Breetzke, Aryan Juyal, Yuvraj Chaudhary, Mayank Yadav, Prince Yadav, Digvesh Rathi.

Delhi Capitals Squad: Jake Fraser-McGurk, Faf du Plessis, Abishek Porel, KL Rahul(w), Axar Patel(c), Tristan Stubbs, Ashutosh Sharma, Mitchell Starc, Kuldeep Yadav, Mukesh Kumar, T Natarajan, Karun Nair, Mohit Sharma, Dushmantha Chameera, Ajay Jadav Mandal, Darshan Nalkande, Sameer Rizvi, Donovan Ferreira, Tripurana Vijay, Manvanth Kumar L, Vipraj Nigam, Madhav Tiwari
