DC vs LSG Playing 11: Expected Lineups, Key Players & Batting Order for IPL 2025 Match
Delhi Capitals (DC) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) will clash in Match 4 of IPL 2025 at the ACA-VDCA Stadium in Visakhapatnam on March 24. Both teams missed the playoffs last season and will be eager to start their campaign on a winning note. However, they are dealing with key player availability concerns ahead of this crucial encounter.
Delhi Capitals will be without Harry Brook, while Lucknow Super Giants are facing injury issues, especially among their Indian pacers. Despite these setbacks, both teams will look to capitalize on the batting-friendly conditions at Visakhapatnam. The last IPL match at this venue saw Kolkata Knight Riders post a mammoth total of 272, indicating another high-scoring contest is on the cards.
DC vs LSG Playing 11 & Team Combinations
