Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) are all set to commence the Indian Premier League (IPL 2026) campaign on Wednesday by taking on a formidable Delhi Capitals (DC) at the Ekana Stadium in Lucknow. Rishabh Pant and co. had a poor season last year and will be eyeing to hit the reset button with a good start to this year’s edition of the tournament. DC, on the other hand, were one of the best sides in IPL 2025 but choked in the latter half of the season, leading to them narrowly missing out on a playoffs spot.
When it comes to the head-to-head record, DC have the upper hand, having beaten LSG 4 times while the latter has won thrice in the 7 games that the two sides have played against each other. However, LSG will bank on home advantage to start their IPL 2026 campaign on a winning note. But it won’t be an easy task as they will be up against a star-studded and experienced DC line-up.

Spinners are expected to make the most out of the surface, which means the likes of Kuldeep Yadav and Digvesh Rathi will be licking their lips.
