THE LOWDOWN
LUCKNOW SUPER GIANTS
- Lucknow Super Giants will have been more than content with the start they made to IPL life in 2022, reaching the playoffs in their first season and are in great shape to kick on further this time round.
- Skipper KL Rahul certainly has a point to prove to the India selectors, whilst Lucknow will be without South African opener and wicket-keeper Quinton De Kock for this first match due to international commitments.
DELHI CAPITALS
- India star Rishabh Pant’s long layoff put Delhi Capitals on the back foot early on going into the 2023 IPL, with Delhi needing to find a new captain, wicketkeeper and top order batter.
- David Warner, a former IPL winning skipper with Sunrisers Hyderabad has been given the opportunity to lead Delhi and he will play alongside all-rounder and fellow countryman Mitchell Marsh.
THE PREDICTION
Whilst Delhi Capitals will benefit from the smart leadership of Ricky Ponting when it comes to the coaching hierarchy at the franchise, not to mention the presence of Warner, one can’t help that they will begin the 2023 IPL firmly on the back foot. Both sides will be missing their star South African players for this encounter, but significant runs are expected from both when analysing both squads. However, with less upheaval across the post-season and momentum in their favour, back Lucknow Super Giants to come out on top in this first IPL 2023 fixture to be played at Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium.
