Rahul was the captain of Lucknow until last season and Pant was the captain of Delhi until last season. Now both want to show their power. Rahul did not play in the last match against Lucknow.

However, the team was able to make partnerships of 23, 34, 00, 09 and 00 for the first wickets in the last five games. Delhi has so far tried Faf du Plessis, Jack Fraser-Macgark, Abhishek Porel and Karun Nair as a opener, but did not get the expected results. Mayank Yadav could return, due to the injury of Du Plessis, the team suffered a loss in the top order. Even before this game, the fitness of South African players will be closely monitored. However, the middle order of Delhi was strong and the bowlers have done a good job so far. However, Lucknow also has competent bowlers such as Digvesh Rathi, Ravi Bishnoi, Avesh Khan and Shardul Thakur against whom the batsmen of Delhi will have to play carefully. Avesh Khan bowled brilliantly in the culling. In addition, Mayank Yadav can also return to this match. It will be interesting to see how it is used. The top sequence of Lucknow is in excellent form. At the same time, the Lucknow team has power in the top order. The top order has three strong batsmen like Michelle Marsh, Nicholas Puran and Aiden Markram who have done well so far and played an important role in the team’s victory. In this match, however, Lucknow batsmen will have to face the challenge of quick bowlers such as Mitchell Starc, Mukesh Kumar and Mohit Sharma and competent spinners such as Vipraj Nigam and Kuldeep Yadav.
