DC vs LSG, IPL 2024: Ishant Sharma Pick Of The Bowlers For Delhi Capitals
Ishant Sharma was the pick of the bowlers for DC and scalped 3 wickets in his first spell with the new ball which pretty much set the tone in DC's defence of 208. The right-arm fast bowler eventually finished with figures of 3/34. Axar Patel, Khaleel Ahmed, Mukesh Kumar, Kuldeep Yadav and Stubbs chipped in with a wicket each while Jake Fraser-McGurk affected a direct-hit run out.
The win has kept DC's Playoffs hopes alive but they need to hope that Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) lose both their remaining matches by a margin of over 100 runs in order to proceed to the Playoffs. Delhi's win, however, also means Rajasthan Royals (RR) now have a guaranteed place in the IPL 2024 Playoffs with 16 points.
