IPL 2023, Delhi vs Gujarat Highlights: ‘Clinical’ Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) handed home team Delhi Capitals (DC) their 2nd loss in a row in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 on a spicy Feroz Shah Kotla track, Tuesday (April 4).
Earlier, fine spells from star spinner Rashid Khan (3/31) and fiery pace duo of Mohammed Shami (3/41) and Alzarri Joseph (2/29) kept the home team’s batters under check as they restricted Delhi Capitals to a below-par 162/8. The top-scorer for Delhi Capitals was David Warner (37 runs off 32 balls). Notably, the Australian great had literally played and missed during the first few overs.
At one point in the match, even 150 looked a distant reality for Delhi. However, Axar Patel (36 runs off 22 balls) produced a fiery cameo in the last few overs of Delhi’s innings to push his team past the competitive 160-mark.
Brief Scores: Delhi Capitals 162/8; 20 overs (David Warner 37, Sarfaraz Khan 30; Mohammed Shami 3/41, Rashid Khan 3/31, Alzarri Joseph 2/29) vs Gujarat Titans.
