Stubbs and Porel guided DC to a big total of 208/4 and although Nicholas Pooran and Arshad Khan slammed half-centuries, LSG could only manage 189/9. DC will now have to depend on other results in order to qualify for the playoffs while LSG still have a game in hand but their Net Run Rate can prove to be a big problem. (Scorecard) (IPL 2024 Points Table)

Here are the Highlights of IPL 2024 match between DC and LSG:







  • 23:30 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Delhi Capitals win

    Delhi Capitals have clinched the match by 19 runs and they keep their playoff dreams alive. However, it will be depend on a lot of permutations and combinations.

  • 23:22 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: 23 runs needed off 6 balls

    So much drama! LSG lost another wicket and Naveen almost got run-out but the match remains alive. 23 runs to win in the final over!

    LSG 188/9 after 19.2 overs

  • 23:10 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Lucknow Super Giants fight back

    What a knock from Arshad Khan. He has destroyed the DC bowlers and suddenly, LSG are back in this game. Two sixes and a four off Khaleel Ahmed and although Yudhvir Singh was dismissed in the over, this match is headed towards a solid finish.

    LSG 168/8 after 17.1 overs

  • 22:59 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Good news for RCB

    DC are inching towards a comfortable win over LSG and this is very good news for RCB. LSG can now only reach 14 points even if they win their final match and a big win over CSK in their final match will put RCB in a brilliant position to reach the IPL 2024 playoffs.

    LSG 149/7 after 16 overs 

  • 22:54 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Wicket for Kuldeep

    Kuldeep Yadav strikes this time and this has been a great show from the DC bowlers. Krunal Pandya is stumped by Rishabh Pant and DC are on the verge of a crucial win. DC will have 14 points from 14 matches if they win the game and they will have to depend on other results to potentially find a spot in the playoffs.

    LSG 134/7 in 14.4 overs

  • 22:49 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: LSG’s nightmare

    A heavy loss against LSG can be extremely problematic for their playoff dreams. It will mean that they can only reach 14 points even if they win their remaining match but their Net Run Rate (NRR) can come back to haunt them.

  • 22:45 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Huge wicket

    Mukesh Kumar strikes for Delhi Capitals and it is the important wicket of Nicholas Pooran, Lucknow Super Giants 101/6 after 11.1 overs. A humongous wicket and it seems like game over for LSG. A huge blow to their playoff dreams and this is going to be very disappointing.

  • 22:34 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Playoff scenarios

    The best case scenario for DC is to get ahead of SRH when it comes to net run rate: DC can get ahead of SRH in case of a 14-point tie if SRH lose their last two matches by a combined margin of 120 runs and DC beat LSG by 96 runs or more (Assuming first innings score of 200 in each case).

  • 22:29 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Pooran on fire

    A 21-ball half-century for Nicholas Pooran but the target is still far far away. The left-handed batter from West Indies will have to produce something extra special if LSG win tonight and he will also need to play till the end.

    LSG 85/5 after 9 overs

  • 22:22 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Five wickets down

    Ayush Badoni goes for a big shot himself but not the result that he wanted. A mishit off Tristan Stubbs and a comfortable catch for Gulbadin Naib on the boundary. Half of the LSG team is back in the dugout and DC are truly on top.

    LSG 72/5 after 7.5 overs

  • 22:18 (IST)

  • 22:16 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Pooran power

    Lucknow Super Giants may have lost four wickets in this run chase but there is no stopping Nicholas Pooran. A four and six off Axar Patel followed by a reverse-sweep six off Kuldeep Yadav. Pure entertainment!

    LSG 61/4 after 6.2 overs

  • 22:08 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Super Ishant

    Another wicket for Ishant Sharma and LSG have completely lost the plot. Deepak Hooda was trapped LBW for a duck and LSG are four wickets down. Nicholas Pooran slammed 20 runs in the Axar Patel over but he will have to stay till the end if LSG are to have any chance to chase down this total.

    DC 48/4 after 4.5 overs

  • 22:01 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Another wicket!

    Rishabh Pant completes a comfortable stumping and it is the mammoth wicket of Marcus Stoinis. The Australian all-rounder was completely foxed by the delivery from Axar Patel and this is not looking good for LSG.

    LSG 24/3 in 3.2 overs

  • 21:57 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Ishant strikes again

    Second wicket for Ishant Sharma and it is Quinton De Kock this time. A mishit from the veteran left-hander and it is Mukesh Kumar once again who completes the catch!

    LSG 24/2 after 3 overs

  • 21:50 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: DC start well

    This has been a good start for Delhi Capitals. With 200 in their kitty, it was important for the hosts to not concede a lot of runs early in the run chase. They have succeeded in keeping LSG quiet and although Marcus Stoinis did get a boundary, he has not gone berserk in this game yet.

    LSG 12/1 after 2 overs

  • 21:45 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Rahul departs

    KL Rahul started well but he is caught by Mukesh Kumar in the very first over. A big wicket for Ishant Sharma and LSG owner Sanjiv Goenka was visibly disappointed. Marcus Stoinis is the new batter and a lot will depend on his performance tonight.

    LSG 7/1 after 1 over

  • 21:39 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Impact Player

    Impact Player in for Delhi Capitals as Ishant Sharma replaces Abishek Porel.

  • 21:27 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Delhi Capitals 208/4

    Tristan Stubbs remains unbeaten on 57 as Delhi Capitals manage 208 for the loss of four wickets in 20 overs. A good total but it remains to be seen if it is enough on a surface that has produced multiple high-scoring matches this year.

  • 21:19 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Half-century for Stubbs

    Tristan Stubbs slams Naveen-ul-Haq for another six way over long-off and it is half-century for the Proteas. A 22-ball fifty for the star batter and this has been a special knock.

  • 21:15 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Stubbs power

    DC 187/4 after 18.3 overs

  • 21:08 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Pant departs

    Rishabh Pant went for another big shot but this time, he was caught in the dep and Naveen-ul-Haq has his second wicket. A big breakthrough for LSG and the onus is completely on Tristan Stubbs if DC want to post a total anywhere near 200.

    DC 163/4 after 17 overs

  • 20:58 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: 200 looking too far

    Delhi Capitals were scoring at a brilliant rate but couple of slow overs mean that 200 is looking tough for the hosts. However, with big hitters like Rishabh Pant and Tristan Stubbs out in the middle, things can change very fast.

    DC 139/3 in 15.2 overs

  • 20:49 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Pant looks in good touch

    Rishabh Pant has truly been a top performer for Delhi Capitals and this will be good news for both DC and Indian cricket team fans who will want him to repeat this performance in the T20 World Cup as well. 6 overs to go and DC must be eyeing 200 from here.

    DC 132/3 after 14 overs

  • 20:40 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: DC run rate suffers

    The run rate has suffered quite a bit since the dismissal of Shai Hope and Abishek Porel. Rishabh Pant and Tristan Stubbs are looking to get their eye in right now and DC will need them both to provide a solid finish to this innings.

    DC 116/3 after 12.2 overs

  • 20:33 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Porel departs

    More wickets for LSG as Abishek Porel is caught in the deep off Naveen-ul-Haq. He continued to play his shots even after completing his half-century but this time, Porel ended up finding the fielder. A good catch in the deep for Nicholas Pooran and LSG are back in this encounter!

    DC 111/3 after 11.1 overs

  • 20:26 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: KL Rahul stunner

    A stunning catch from KL Rahul and this is a crucial wicket for LSG. A powerful shot from Shai Hope went straight to the LSG captain who spilled it at first but pulled off a quick dive to complete the catch. LSG owner Sanjiv Goenka gives him a standing ovation and LSG can now dream of a comeback.

    DC 105/2 after 9.4 overs

  • 20:17 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Fifty for Porel

    It is a well-deserved half-century for Abishek Porel and he needed just 21 deliveries. A brilliant display of aggressive batting and he will looking to turn this into a massive knock.

  • 20:11 (IST)

  • 20:02 (IST)

    One-handed six from Abishek Porel and Naveen-ul-Haq’s expression says it all. It was slammed brilliantly over fine-leg and DC are looking in tremendous form right now.

    DC 63/1 after 5.2 overs

  • 19:54 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Hope joins the party

    4,4,6,2 – Shai Hope is not going to wait around and he joins the party with brilliant shots straight down the ground. 50 up for DC in just 4 overs and this is looking like a high-scoring affair.

    DC 52/1 in 4.1 overs

  • 19:50 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Porel show

    3 fours and one six – This is something special from Abishek Porel. They may have lost Jake Fraser-McGurk early but there is no stopping Porel. Arshad Khan completely clueless against the uncapped India star.

    DC 35/1 after 3.2 overs

  • 19:41 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Rahil gets it right

    It was brilliant captaincy from KL Rahul who got the fielding placement exactly right to dismiss Jake Fraser-McGurk for a duck. Naveen Ul Haq did not have to move much for the catch and Rahul’s reaction said it all!

    DC 7/1 after 1.3 overs

  • 19:36 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: McGurk departs

    Huge wicket for Lucknow Super Giants and it is Arshad Khan. Jake Fraser-McGurk went for his trademark shot but KL Rahul had a fielder positioned at long-on who completed an easy catch.

    DC 2/1 after 0.2 overs

  • 19:24 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: What Rishabh Pant said

    We would have batted first. There are a lot of things going on (regarding qualification) but you can only focus on winning the game. If you had not lost too many wickets we would have won that game, but easier to say that from sitting out. That is a concern throughout the season but as a captain you can ask the players to give their best and they are doing that. We have two changes – myself and Naib come in, Warner misses out.

  • 19:21 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: What KL Rahul said

    “We will bowl first. It is because of how our team is placed and what will help our team. We are a young bowling attack and get them into the game early, we have experienced batters and they can take the pressure. It is pretty clear for us, we have to win both games. The last two games we have not been up to the mark and have been blasted out of the game. The bowlers have to be brave, as a bowling unit you might fear using change ups but they have to do just back themselves. Couple of changes.”

  • 19:17 (IST)

    DC vs LSG Live Score: Substitutions

    Delhi Capitals Impact Subs: Ishant Sharma, Kumar Kushagra, Praveen Dubey, Swastik Chikara, Lalit Yadav

Indian Stars’ Performance In IPL After T20 WC Squad Selection: Rohit’s Form A Concern, Hardik A Positive | Cricket News

Post By Sports , , , , , , , ,

The Indian cricket team’s 15-member squad for the T20 World Cup 2024 to be held in the West Indies and the United States was announced on Tuesday, April 30. Since then, all the 15 players selected for India’s squad for the T20 World Cup have played at least one game for their respective franchises in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 season. Here we take a look at how these Indian players have performed since their selection in the T20 World Cup squad.

Rohit Sharma (captain)
Indian cricket team captain Rohit Sharma has registered a string of low scores since the announcement of the 15-member squad for the T20 World Cup 2024. Mumbai Indians’ star opening batter scored just four runs off five balls against Lucknow Super Giants on the very day the squad was announced. Two days later, Rohit managed 12-ball 11 against Kolkata Knight Riders at Wankhede. The right-handed opener was once again dismissed cheaply as he scored four runs against SunRisers Hyderabad in MI’s previous outing on May 6. Overall, Rohit has scored just 19 runs in three matches since the squad announcement.

Yashasvi Jaiswal
Flamboyant left-handed batter Yashasvi Jaiswal celebrated his inclusion in India’s T20 World Cup 2024 squad with a scintillating fifty against SunRisers Hyderabad. Chasing 202, Rajasthan Royals’ dashing opener slammed 67 off 40 balls, laced with seven fours and two sixes. Despite his brilliant half-century, RR lost the game by just one run in Hyderabad. Meanwhile, Jaiswal scored just four runs against Delhi Capitals in RR’s previous fixture. Since the squad announcement, the 22-year-old has scored 71 runs in two games.

Virat Kohli
Virat Kohli has been in magnificent form in the ongoing Indian Premier League. Opening the batting for Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Kohli continued his good run after he scored a 27-ball 42 against Gujarat Titans before scoring a 92 against Punjab Kings. But, it also has to be kept in mind that Virat was dropped twice during his stay at the crease. Kohli was also given apt support by Rajat Patidar who scored a half-century to help RCB put 241/7 on the board.

Suryakumar Yadav
India’s swashbuckling batter Suryakumar Yadav has produced some outstanding knocks since the squad announcement for the T20 World Cup. Mumbai Indians’ accomplished batter scored a match-winning hundred against SunRisers Hyderabad in their last game. MI were reduced to 31/3 in 4.1 overs while chasing SRH’s 173/8. Batting at number four, Suryakumar smashed 102 not out off just 51 balls to guide MI to a seven-wicket win at Wankhede. Earlier, the right-handed batter hammered a 35-ball 56 against Kolkata Knight Riders while other MI batters struggled on that night. However, he was dismissed for 10 against Lucknow Super Giants on the day the squad was announced. Overall, Suryakumar has scored 168 runs in three games since the squad announcement.

Rishabh Pant (wicket-keeper)
Delhi Capitals captain Rishabh Pant has been one of the standout wicketkeeper-batters in IPL 2024. The hard-hitting southpaw has amassed 413 runs in 12 games at an average of 41.30 and a strike rate of 156.43. He has registered three fifties this season. Since India’s T20 World Cup squad announcement, Pant has featured in just one game against Rajasthan Royals in Delhi. Batting at No.5, the southpaw scored 15 off 13 balls against RR before he fell to Yuzvendra Chahal. His cameo guided DC to a massive 221/8, which they later defended and won by 20 runs.

Sanju Samson (wicket-keeper)
Sanju Samson pipped KL Rahul to be included in India’s 15-member T20 World Cup. Following the announcement, Rajasthan Royals’ captain was dismissed for a duck against SunRisers Hyderabad in Hyderabad. However, Samson soon bounced back against Delhi Capitals in RR’s previous outing. Chasing 222, Samson led from the front as he smashed 86 off just 46 balls which kept RR in the hunt. His knock included eight fours and six maximums. Despite Samson’s brilliant knock, RR fell short by 20 runs.

Hardik Pandya
MI captain Hardik Pandya has produced few impressive bowling performances since the squad announcement for the T20 World Cup. On the day the squad was announced, Hardik was dismissed for a golden duck against Lucknow Super Giants. Defending 144, India’s star all-rounder later bagged the important wickets of KL Rahul and Deepak Hooda to finish with figures of 2/26. Hardik then once again claimed two wickets against Kolkata Knight Riders despite conceding 44 runs in his four overs. In the batting department, he continued to struggle as he scored just one run at Wankhede. In their last game, Hardik took three wickets for 31 runs to help MI restrict SRH to 173/8. MI later chased down the target in 17.2 overs courtesy Suryakumar’s ton.

Shivam Dube
Chennai Super Kings’ Shivam Dube has suffered a shocking loss of form since his inclusion in India’s T20 World Cup squad. The hard-hitting left-hander was dismissed for a duck in the very first ball against Punjab Kings in Chennai before being dismissed for 13-ball 21 against Gujarat in Ahmedabad. On the positive front, Dube dismissed Jonny Bairstow in Chennai to bag his first wicket in IPL 2024, when CSK took on PBKS in Dharamsala.

Ravindra Jadeja
India’s star all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja has had a mixed bag since the announcement of the 15-member squad for T20 World Cup 2024. The 35-year-old scored just two runs off four deliveries and claimed no wickets against Punjab Kings in Chennai. Later in Dharamsala, Jadeja was adjudged the Player of the Match for his all-round performance against Punjab Kings. Jadeja then scored a 10-ball 18 against Gujarat as CSK ended up on the losing side.

Axar Patel
Another spin-bowling all-rounder Axar Patel has contributed with both bat and ball in the only game that he has played since the squad announcement. Batting at No.4, Delhi Capitals’ all-rounder Axar scored 15 off 10 balls against Rajasthan Royals to help his side post 221/8 in their 20 overs. Later, Axar dismissed Jos Buttler to finish with figures of 1/25 to guide the Capitals to a 20-run victory in Delhi.

Kuldeep Yadav
Left-arm wrist-spinner Kuldeep Yadav has been one of the standout bowlers in IPL 2024. The 29-year-old has bagged 14 wickets in nine matches at an average of 20.64 and an economy of 8.25. Since India’s T20 World Cup squad announcement, Kuldeep has featured in just one game for Delhi Capitals. Defending 222 against RR, Kuldeep dismissed Donovan Ferreira and Ravichandran Ashwin in the 18th over to power DC to a convincing victory in the end.

Yuzvendra Chahal
Following his inclusion in India’s T20 World Cup squad, leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal has been expensive in both the games that he has played since the announcement. SunRisers Hyderabad batters smashed Chahal to all parts of the ground as he conceded 62 runs in his four overs in Hyderabad. Later against Delhi Capitals, Chahal took the important wicket of Rishabh Pant. However, the 33-year-old conceded 48 runs in his four overs.

Jasprit Bumrah
Indian cricket team’s bowling spearhead Jasprit Bumrah has continued his good form even after the squad announcement for the T20 World Cup. Bumrah produced an economical spell of none for 17 against Lucknow Super Giants while defending just 144. Against Kolkata Knight Riders, Bumrah was the wrecker-in-chief for MI as he picked up three wickets for 18 runs in his 3.5 overs to bowl them out for 169. India’s right-arm pacer once again bowled an economical spell against an in-form SunRisers Hyderabad’s batting line-up. Bumrah finished with figures of 1/23. He is the current Purple Cap holder in IPL 2024 with 18 wickets in 12 matches.

Mohammed Siraj
Indian fast bowler Mohammed Siraj has featured in two games since the announcement of the 15-member squad for T20 World Cup 2024. Playing for Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Siraj bowled an impressive spell against last season’s finalist Gujarat Titans at the M.Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on May 4. Siraj finished with figures of 2/29 to help bundle out GT for 147 in 19.3 overs. Siraj then picked up 3 wickets for 43 runs against Punjab Kings in Dharamsala.

Arshdeep Singh
Left-arm pacer Arshdeep Singh has produced a few lacklustre performances since his inclusion in India’s T20 World Cup squad. While Punjab Kings’ star pacer Arshdeep dismissed Chennai Super Kings captain Ruturaj Gaikwad, he conceded 52 runs in his four overs in Chennai. Later in Dharamsala against the same opponents, Arshdeep was once again expensive as he gave away 42 runs in his four overs. Even against RCB, Arshdeep leaked 41 runs in just 3 overs.

Having won five games out of eight, KKR are placed second in the IPL 2024 standings. On the other hand, DC are currently placed fifth in the IPL 2024 standings with ten points on the board after winning five matches out of ten. Ahead of this exciting clash, we look at the predicted XIs of both sides

KKR Predicted XI

Phil Salt (wicketkeeper)

Phil Salt has been in spectacular form for KKR this season, providing them with blitzkrieg starts for the team as an opener. The Englishman has made 324 runs in eight IPL 2024 games with an average of 46.29 and a strike rate of 176.08.

Angkrish Raghuvanshi

Young Angkrish Raghuvanshi has impressed whenever he has gone out to bat for KKR. With 118 runs in seven games at a strike rate of 161.64, including a fifty, he’s a player to watch in IPL 2024, eager to continue making an impact.

Shreyas Iyer (captain)

KKR captain Shreyas Iyer has had a topsy-turvy season, but he remains a crucial player in the middle order. He has scored a fifty this season and he will be geared up to lead from the front against his previous side.

Venkatesh Iyer

Despite his limited time at the crease, Venkatesh Iyer has already notched up a fifty this season. With his ability to contribute with the ball as well, he’ll be eager to make an impact, whether with bat or ball, against DC.

Andre Russell

Dre Russ is a match-winner with both bat and ball and has been in superb form for KKR this season. The Jamaican has scored 179 runs in eight games at an average of 44.75 and a remarkable strike rate of 186.45. Russell has also claimed nine wickets at an average of 18.88, establishing himself as one of KKR’s key players.

Rinku Singh

While Rinku Singh hasn’t set this IPL season alight as he has done in the past, the hard-hitting left-hander has produced a few impactful cameos for the team. Singh has made 112 runs at a strike rate of 157.75 and will have a role to play as a finisher against DC.

Ramandeep Singh

All-rounder Ramandeep Singh has done well in his limited time at the crease. He has scored 81 runs at a strike rate of 184.09 and is capable of chipping in with the ball, making him important for the balance of the team.

Dushmantha Chameera

Dushmantha Chameera’s first match of the IPL 2024 was against PBKS, and it was quite expensive. He has collected 55 wickets in 55 international appearances and will look to prove his worth against DC.

Varun Chakravarthy

Leg spinner Varun Chakravarthy has been among the wickets in IPL 2024, having claimed eight scalps so far. He’s performed well against DC in the past and will back himself to get the better of their batters come Monday.

Harshit Rana

Harshit Rana seems to be enjoying his best IPL season yet with KKR having taken nine wickets in seven games in the ongoing campaign. He’s managed to take wickets in crucial moments for the two-time IPL champions and is averaging 27.33 in IPL 2024.

Impact Sub

Anukul Roy

DC Predicted XI

Abishek Porel

After a slow start to the season, Abishek Porel has progressively found his form in IPL 2024 and has accumulated 184 runs in ten matches at a strike rate of 155.93. Porel will look to continue scoring runs against KKR.

Jake Fraser-McGurk

Australian opener Jake Fraser-McGurk has been in sensational form for DC since his IPL 2024 debut. With 247 runs in just five matches, Jake boasts an average of 49.40 and an exceptional strike rate of 237.50, making him an important player at the top of the order for DC.

Axar Patel

Axar Patel returned to form with a fiery 66-run knock against GT at a strike rate of 153.49. Patel has also been effective with the ball for Delhi, taking seven wickets in ten matches and could be a key player in the upcoming match.

Shai Hope

Shai Hope will enter this contest on the back of a quick-fire 41 runs off 17 balls at a blistering strike rate of 241.18 against MI. Despite scoring only 109 runs in five matches, Hope is capable of both anchoring an innings and also producing big shots when needed.

Rishabh Pant (captain and wicketkeeper)

Delhi’s captain and wicketkeeper, Rishabh Pant, showcased his brilliance in the game against Gujarat. The left-handed batter hammered an unbeaten 88-run knock of 43 balls, including eight sixes and five boundaries, at a stunning strike rate of 204.65. With a total of 371 runs in ten matches, Pant’s destructive form will intimidate KKR’s bowlers.

Tristan Stubbs

Tristan Stubbs played an electric knock, scoring 48 runs off just 25 balls against Mumbai. The Protea batter has been in good touch for Delhi Capitals, amassing 273 runs in ten innings at an impressive average of 68.25 and a strike rate of 192.25, making him a key player for the team.

Rasikh Salam

Despite limited opportunities, Rasikh Salam has featured in four games for Delhi Capitals this season, claiming six wickets. He will be keen to make significant breakthroughs against KKR’s strong batting lineup.

Kuldeep Yadav

Kuldeep Yadav has emerged as one of Delhi Capitals’ top bowlers in IPL 2024. With his crafty spin variations and ability to deceive batters with his googlies, he has taken 12 wickets in seven matches, maintaining an impressive economy rate of 8.52 and an average of 19.17.

Lizaad Williams

Lizaad Williams made his IPL debut against Mumbai and did not contribute significantly. The South African bowler has 16 wickets in 11 international appearances and might be a valuable asset for DC against KKR.

Mukesh Kumar

Mukesh Kumar has emerged as a key figure for Delhi Capitals in IPL 2024. With an average of 21.69 and an economy rate of 11.06, Kumar has taken 13 wickets in seven matches while bowling in difficult situations. The Indian pacer will be eager to continue his effective bowling performance against KKR on Monday.

Khaleel Ahmed

Khaleel Ahmed is set to lead Delhi Capitals’ bowling attack in the upcoming match. Having already taken 12 wickets in ten matches with an impressive economy rate of 9.49, his ability to take wickets in both the powerplays and death overs could prove challenging for KKR’s batting lineup.

    RR vs DC Live Score: Here’s what Sanju Samson said at the toss

    We would have bowled first, dew could come in the second innings. Both pitches have an even covering of grass, but the last match was an afternoon game. All the 10 teams are geared up and prepared well, we just need to follow the process and not think too much, then we will be fine. Same team for us.

  • 19:11 (IST)

    RR vs DC Live Score: Here’s what Rishabh Pant said at the toss

    We’ll bowl first. The wicket looks fine and we want to use it, there might be some dew in the 2nd innings. Feels good to play 100 matches for the same franchise, but every game is important for me. Most of the concerns are regarding injury, but these are things you can’t control. Two changes for us – Ishant hasn’t recovered, Shai Hope has a back spasm. Anrich Nortje and Mukesh Kumar come in.

  • 19:00 (IST)

    RR vs DC Live Score: Toss

    Delhi Capitals skipper Rishabh Pant won the toss and opted to bowl against Rajasthan Royals in their IPL 2024 match on Thursday in Jaipur. 

  • 18:50 (IST)

    RR vs DC Live Score: Pitch report

    “It’s a fresh surface tonight. 67m square boundaries on both sides and a 76m straight boundary. We’re playing on pitch number 5 today, it is absolutely rock hard, but there are some cracks which move as you press. It means that the bounce could be low with the new ball, it means the tactics could be similar to that of the last game. It wouldn’t be surprising that the Royals could be wanting to bat first again today,” reckon Simon Katich and Samuel Badree

  • 18:46 (IST)

    RR vs DC Live Score: Here’s what Nandre Burger said before the match

    “It is always good to start the tournament with a win, especially at home. The crowd has been great and the mood in the team is really good. Major part is field placings, the ball is hit to different parts here (in India), so you need to adjust more tactically rather than technically. It’s pretty chilled, everyone knows what they’re expected to do, it’s a great atmosphere (in the team).”
