DC vs LSG IPL 2024 Highlights: Delhi Capitals beat Lucknow Super Giants by 19 runs

And DC are home. They survive the Arshad Khan scare to clinch a win here. DC win by 19 runs

A good over by Mukesh and LSG need 23 from 6 balls.

Arshad Khan is playing a blinder of a knock here. He has brought up his fifty in 25 balls and is keeping LSG alive. LSG need 29 from 12 balls.

A couple of big hits and LSG get 14 from the previous over. They still need 60 from 24 balls and have only three wickets in hand.

It's all but over for LSG now. Mukesh Kumar gets Pooran in his third over and that should be the final nail in the coffin. Pooran slapped this fuller one straight to the cover, where Axar holds it well. Arshad is now in and LSG have a huge task ahead of them. Krunal now falls too.

Pooran is firing all cylinders. He has raced to 32 off 11 and is going hard onto the bowlers. If this is his day, we might be in for some action today. LSG 59/4 after 6 overs and need 150 more from 14.

Ishant Sharma is on fire here. He has taken another LSG batter out here. He gets Deepak Hooda out on duck with a good delivery angling in to get him LBW. LSG 44/4. Ishant gets his third.

Another one bites the dust. Ishant has two now as he gest Quinton de Kock. This was a slower one full on the stumps. De Kock could not get the required distance and power and hits it to long-on, where Mukesh takes another catch. Stoinis follows him. He is gone too. Axar strikes in his first over. Stoinis comes down the track but misses his shot, Pant does the stumping. DC are in the driver's seat

And KL Rahul is gone in the first over. Impact player Ishant Sharma gets the wicket with a good outswinger. Rahul could not time his shot and hit it up on the off-side. Mukesh ran behind from point to take the catch on the second attempt. Stoinis is now in.

The run-chase is on now. The two LSG openers - De Kock and Rahul are out in the middle and they look for a strong start knowing that LSG have to chase this to keep themselves in the playoffs race

A strong batting effort from Stubbs in the later half of this innings and Delhi finish at 208/4 in their 20 overs

And in no time, Stubbs gets to his fifty. A 22-ball half-century for the Proteas star. A six on this slower ball from Naveen takes him to his half-ton

Oh no, not the time DC would have liked this. Pant tries to go big on the slower one from Naveen. But gets his one hand off the bat as he looks to clear long-on. He is caught out and Axar is now in.

The Capitals have set themselves up nicely for a strong finish here

And now Pooran with a good work at the boundary. He balances him well at the deep mid-wicket fence to take this one. Porel gone for a well made 58.

Rahul grabs a stunning catch at covers to remove Shai Hope. He got a hand on it while diving to his right and then completed the catch on the second attempt. Pant is now in. DC 106/2 after 10 overs

Porel has smashed a fifty off just 21 balls. He hits a four and then takes a single to get to the mark. This has been good one from the youngster and he is growing his stature now.

Hope and Porel have taken DC to 73/1 in the first six overs. Porel is taking on the attack onto the bowlers. He is at 43 from 16 balls, while Hope has made 25 from 18

Shai Hope takes on Yudhvir and has hit him for 16 runs. Two fours a six and a brace to end the over well. DC 51/1 after 4

Porel and Hope are out in the middle and the two are looking to rebuild DC's innings. Porel is looking positive in his intent

Ohh, that's a big blow. Arshad Khan gets the big wicket of Jake Fraser-McGurk in the first over. This was on a length and swung in a bit. JFM went for his shot and is caught out at long on

We would have batted first. There are a lot of things going on 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.

Delhi have made two changes as well. Pant is in after missing the previous game due to his ban. Gulbadin comes in for Warner

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.

KL Rahul has won the toss and LSG are bowling first. LSG have made changes, Yudhvir Singh and Arshad Khan are in

Delhi Capitals won by six wickets chasing down 168 runs comfortably when these two teams faced earlier this season on April 12. Can LSG avenge for that loss today? It is a must-win game for them

Lucknow Super Giants might hardly get another chance if they lose today. A team can reach the playoffs on 14 points too, however, LSG's negative Net Run Rate will most likely not be enough if they lose to Delhi Capitals today. They need big wins to reach 16 and have chances for the playoffs. 

As for Delhi, they are hanging by a thin thread after their loss to RCB two days ago. Another loss will be curtains and a win won't even assure a spot as they will be dependent on other teams. Stay tuned for this game.
