LSG vs DC Highlights: Match Summary

 

The chase was started well by the Lucknow Super Giants as the opening pair of de Kock and skipper KL Rahul added 73 for the first wicket in 9.3 overs before the latter was dismissed playing a nothing shot off Kuldeep Yadav. Later on, de Kock tried to build many partnerships but wasn't successful much other than the one of 36 with Deepak Hooda.

 

Hooda and Krunal Pandya then added 23 as Lucknow looked in all sorts of trouble with 19 needed off 12 balls and Mustafizyr Rahamn n bowling the 19th over who had till then only given 12 off his first three overs. 

 

But Krunal hit 14 off the 19th over and only 5 were needed off the last six before Hooda got out to make things interesting. But young Ayush Badoni made sure that Lucknow saw no trouble as he hit a four and a six of the three balls that he faced to finish the game with two balls remaining. With this win, the LSG now moves to second position in the Points Table. 

 

Earlier in the evening, after being asked to bat first, Delhi were off to a flyer courtesy of a fiery 61 off just 34 balls by Prithvi Shaw, but apart from him, no other Delhi batter got going as they could make only 19 runs in the last three overs and finished at 149-3 in their 20 overs. Ravi Bishnoi picked two-wicket for Lucknow.

LIVE LSG vs DC: Badoni finishes it with a six over extra cover

 

Shardul here has got away with a bouncer which could have been called wide for being too high 

 

Four!! Pant asked Shardul to bowl it outside off, he did bowl, Badoni was up to the mark and he just drove the full toss in the gap between mid-off and short cover and went for four 
 

Six!! Woww…this guy has nerves of steel as only in his fourth IPL matches, he has hit a six to finish the game and not any ordinary six, but a six over covers and mid-off, what a classic way to finish the game here from this young lad

LIVE LSG vs DC: Fizz goes for 14 in his last over, Delhi lose the grip

 

A six…well that was the only thing that was not needed from him as he bowled a slower ball and that was smoked for a six by Krunal Pandya who had not been going well before that. Instead of a slower ball, only if he went for a bouncer even if that was a slower bouncer, that would have been fine. But now with two runs each coming from the last three balls, a total of 14 has come from this over and Fizz, who was supposed to be the savior here for Delhi, has turned out to be the one that let it go

LIVE LSG vs DC: Can Fizz, get it to the last over?

 

The Fizz has come back to bowl his last over and what a spell it has been so far from him as he has given away only 12 runs in his first three overs. Can he finish this over with 7 or less and give the last over bowler 12 or more to defend to get this match going or keep it in favor of the Capitals?

LIVE LSG vs DC: Becoming difficult for Krunal to get going

 

Krunal Panday has been sent above Ayush Badoni, who has been a proven match-winner. But runs needed were really less as compared to now which is 22 of the last 15 balls as Shardul Thakur here has bowed three perfect yorkers and given away only three off his first three balls. 

 

But if Lucknow mages to win this, without losing a wicket, it will snake good headlines with one time nemesis Krunal and Deepak Hooda winning the match for the same team
