The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 match between Delhi Capitals (DC) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the ACA-VDCA International Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam will mark a new era as both teams begin their journey under new captains and revamped squads.
While Delhi Capitals will be led by Axar Patel, former Delhi skipper Rishabh Pant will don the captain’s hat at LSG. However, unlike Delhi Capitals, LSG have been plagued by injuries in their pace bowling department with Mohsin Khan already ruled out of IPL 2025.
