An exciting top-half of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 points table clash awaits us as the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) are set to lock horns with the Delhi Capitals at the Ekana Stadium on Tuesday, April 22.
It would be a homecoming of sorts for KL Rahul, who will go up against his former franchise, LSG. He previously captained the Lucknow franchise before being released ahead of the IPL 2025 mega auction. Delhi, then pounced on the situation and are enjoying his batting prowess in the middle-order.
Delhi enter this match as slight favourites too, having won five of their first seven matches. Lucknow, meanwhile, have a 5-3 record and are placed fifth on the IPL 2025 points table.
