LSG vs DC Key Players

Nicholas Pooran

Nicholas Pooran is batting really well in the back with a lot of clarity in his role. He has found himself as a finisher again and is going really strong, clearing the fence with ease irrespective of the bowler in front of him.

Axar Patel

Axar Patel is a pretty big part of the Delhi Capitals side. His contributions though with both bat and ball are not as noticeable and that seems to be playing a part in the Capital’s struggles with one of their best players looking silent.
