Rizvi, Stubbs Rescue Delhi Capitals in Six-Wicket Win Over Lucknow Super Giants

Axar Patel’s call to bowl first paid off as Lungi Ngidi took three wickets with T Natarajan matching him.

Overview

  • Delhi Capitals won by six wickets on Wednesday in Lucknow, chasing 142 to finish 145 for 4 with 17 balls to spare.
  • The chase slid to 26 for 4 before Sameer Rizvi and Tristan Stubbs added an unbroken 119 for the fifth wicket, with Rizvi 70 not out and Stubbs 39 not out.
  • Axar Patel chose to bowl after winning the toss on a relaid red‑soil pitch that has favored chases at Ekana, and his attack held LSG to 141 all out.
  • Rishabh Pant opened for LSG and was run out at the non-striker’s end when a straight drive deflected off the bowler’s hand onto the stumps.
  • Ngidi and T Natarajan led Delhi’s bowling with three wickets each, and Pant later said the hosts “didn’t have enough” after failing to build partnerships.
