DC vs LSG Highlights :
KL Rahul won the toss and chose for LSG to bowl first. DC scored 208/4 in their 20 overs against LSG. This was the 37th time a team scored over 200 runs in IPL 2024, matching last year’s record.
DC’s Jake Fraser-McGurk got out for zero in the first over trying for a big shot. Abishek Porel and Shai Hope then took control with great batting, attacking the fast bowlers and giving DC a strong start in the Powerplay. Porel scored a half-century, and Hope made 38 before getting out. After a slow period against the spinners, Porel got out trying to speed up the scoring.
Rishabh Pant and Tristan Stubbs built a partnership of 47 runs. Pant got out for 33 while trying to score faster, but Stubbs played a key role, scoring a quick 50 from 22 balls and helping DC finish strongly. (DC vs LSG Highlights)
DC’s good luck continued as their bowlers caused trouble for the LSG batters.
Impact Player Ishant Sharma bowled brilliantly, taking out both openers in the first three overs and also getting Deepak Hooda out for zero in his next over, leaving LSG struggling at 44-4. (DC vs LSG Highlights)
Then, Nicholas Pooran fought back for LSG. The West Indian hit a quick fifty off just 19 balls, giving his team hope again.
But a brilliant play by Axar and Mukesh ended the innings, leaving LSG disappointed.
However, their fight didn’t end there. Unexpected batters Arshad Khan and Yudhvir Singh easily faced the fast bowlers, hitting many boundaries.
Arshad, in particular, kept hitting well and scored a fifty, keeping LSG’s hopes alive even as wickets fell. (DC vs LSG Highlights)
But in the final overs, Mukesh and Rasikh Dar bowled exceptionally well, securing a 19-run win for DC.

KL Rahul LSG captain :
“I feel the wicket remained the same throughout the 40 overs. When we got JFM out in the first over we should have capitalized, but they – Hope and Porel – showed a lot of intent. We did well at the back end and 200 was a par total, we should have chased it down. This has been a problem right through the season – we keep losing a lot of wickets in the powerplay, we never get a solid start to get the likes of Stoinis and Pooran in, that is the big reason why we are in this position.” (DC vs LSG Highlights)
Rishabh Pant DC captain :
“(DC vs LSG Highlights) Definitely Pooran was giving us a hard time. We had certain plans. The total was good enough. We kept on bowling good balls. I would say the start of the season was with a lot of hopes. Some injuries. We are still in contention even after the last game. We had a better chance of qualifying if I would have had a chance to play in the last game. Personally, it was fantastic to come back. Was heartening to see the support from entire India. Was a long time to wait after one-and-a-half years. I want to be on the field all the time. Don’t want to miss any action.”

Ishant Sharma Player of the Match :
“The last few games I was trying to bowl a knuckle ball. Even in the last game I got Virat out and today KL. I don’t think much. I take it as it comes everyday. If my body is alright, I should thank Patrick [Farhart]. I had some injuries. After the defeats, we were positive and there was belief as well. If you win close games, it gives you confidence to take the momentum forward.” (DC vs LSG Highlights)
