The 64th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 will see the Delhi Capitals (DC) square off against the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Tuesday, May 14. It is a must-win game for both teams to stay afloat in the race for the playoffs.

DC had a slow start to the season but picked up pace midway to move up in the points table. They currently find themselves in sixth spot with 12 points from 13 matches. The Capitals, who will see Rishabh Pant walk into the playing XI after a one-match suspension, will look to win their last league game and look for other favorable to finish in the top four.

LSG also find themselves in a similar situation after losing their last two games. They have 12 points from as many games and need to win both their remaining league fixtures to finish in the top four. The Super Giants are currently placed seventh in the IPL 2024 points table.

The two teams met earlier this season, with Delhi comfortably winning by six wickets at the Ekana Cricket Stadium. DC will look to a double tonight, while LSG will look to return the favor and remain afloat in the race for the playoffs. It is worth noting that Lucknow has reached the playoffs in all seasons since their induction in the IPL in 2022.

Speaking of the weather ahead of the game, the conditions will likely be extremely high as the temperature is expected to touch the 40 degrees Celsius mark. As the humidity will be low, thus the real feel will be lower than the actual temperature.

Meanwhile, there is no rainfall in the forecast, meaning a full 40-over contest is on the cards.
