The 4th match of IPL 2025 between Delhi Capitals (DC) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at Visakhapatnam turned out to be a nail-biting encounter as DC secured a stunning one-wicket victory in a high-scoring clash.

Winning the toss, Delhi Capitals opted to bowl first. During the powerplay, Lucknow Super Giants came out aggressively, targeting DC’s premier pacer, Mitchell Starc. LSG raced to 64/1 in six overs, losing Aiden Markram for 15 runs. Mitchell Marsh and Nicholas Pooran then decimated DC’s bowling attack. At the halfway mark, LSG stood at a formidable 117/1.

However, DC clawed back into the game with two crucial wickets. Marsh’s breathtaking 72 off 36 balls was cut short, and soon after, captain Rishabh Pant endured a six-ball duck. Pooran kept the scoreboard ticking with a quickfire 75 off just 30 balls but fell soon after, leaving LSG at 169/4 in 14.5 overs.
