Lucknow: In a thrilling encounter at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow, the Delhi Capitals emerged victorious against the Lucknow Super Giants, thanks to stellar performances from Fraser-McGurk and Rishabh Pant.
Earlier in the match, Ayush Badoni and Arshad Khan’s partnership propelled Lucknow Super Giants to a competitive total of 167/7 against Delhi Capitals. Despite a strong performance by Kuldeep Yadav, who was the pick of the bowlers for DC, the rest of the attack failed to make a significant impact.
However, Fraser-McGurk and Pant had other plans as they led Delhi Capitals’ charge with the bat. Fraser-McGurk’s impressive knock of 55 runs set the tone for the chase, supported by Prithvi Shaw. Meanwhile, Pant’s aggressive batting style added impetus to the innings, ensuring there were no stumbling blocks in the path to victory.
With the match slipping away, Lucknow Super Giants were unable to contain Pant and his partner Stubbs, who guided Delhi Capitals to a comfortable win with their composed partnership.
