LSG vs DC, IPL 2023 Highlights: Mark Wood takes five as Lucknow Super Giants beat Delhi Capitals by 50 runs

LSG vs DC, IPL 2023 Highlights: Delhi Capitals got off to a good start with Prithvi Shaw and David Warner going at over 10 an over for the first four. However, Mark Wood came in and wreaked havoc in the fifth over, dismissing Shaw and Mitchell Marsh off consecutive balls to peg DC back in their 194-run chase. While it looked like Rilee Rossouw and Warner might be able to rebuild the innings, the former fell to Ravi Bishnoi. Bishnoi then got Rovman Powell as well and it is now on captain Warner and vice-captain Axar Patel to pull off a rather improbable-looking chase. It wasn't to be as Wood came back and took two more and ended the match with extraordinary figures of 5/14. Earlier, Kyle Mayers made the Delhi Capitals pay for a sensational dropped catch opening the batting for Lucknow Super Giants. Mayers went off to a slow start and Khaleel Ahmed gave him a life when he was on 14 with an utterly unbelievable dropped catch. The drop was only part of what has been a horrendous show in the field from Delhi Capitals, particularly in the first 10 overs. Mayers responded by smashing the DC bowlers all over the park and racing past 50 in just 28 balls. He eventually fell to a quite extraordinary delivery from Axar Patel on 73 off 38 balls. However, LSG kept the pace of the innings up with young Ayush Badoni smashing 18 off seven balls. DC brought on Krishnappa Gowtham to face the last ball as an impact player for Badoni as soon as the latter got out and the former ended up smashing the only ball he faced for a six. LSG thus ended up reaching a score of 193/6 in 20 overs.

LSG vs DC Live Score IPL 2023: Lucknow Super Giants beat Delhi Capitals by 50 runs 

Wood ends up with figures of 5/14 which is just extraordinary. DC had got off to a good start in this chase but Wood just turned the tables on them in two overs. Ravi Bishnoi followed that up with the big wickets of Rossouw and Powell. Then Wood came back with his fire to take two more and complete his fifer. Some big hitting and some fiery pace has started the season off for LSG.  

Apr 1, 2023 11:23 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score: GONE! Five wicket haul for Wood!

A maiden IPL five-wicket haul for Wood on his LSG debut. Sakariya holes out at short midwicket and that gives Wood his fifth.

Sakariya c Pandya b Wood 4 (4), DC 143/9 off 19.5 overs

Apr 1, 2023 11:19 PM IST

IPL 2023 Live score: OUT! Wood gets four!

Mark Wood has become a crowd favourite in Lucknow already. He takes a while to mark his run up and then dismisses Axar Patel off the very first ball. 4/10 are is figures for now. Extraordinary from the England World Cup winner. 

Apr 1, 2023 11:15 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score IPL 2023: DC 131/7 in 18 overs

Hits a four and a six off the third and the fourth balls of the over. DC need 63 to win off 12 balls after that over, in case you are wondering.

Apr 1, 2023 11:02 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score: OUT! Warner's misery ends

Warner miscues his lofted drive and is caught at long on. That is that for the DC captain and for the match really. No chance for Delhi to chase this down. The only thing they can do is damage control now. 

Warner c Gowtham b Avesh Khan 56 (48), DC 113/7 in 16 overs

Apr 1, 2023 10:57 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score IPL 2023: OUT! Avesh gets one

The impact player Aman Khan top edges his pull and is caught by Nicholas Pooran. Another one bites the dust. Axar Patel comes in next. He has been in sensational form with the bat but that is in Test cricket, this is a different kind of game altogether. 

Aman Khan c Pooran b Avesh Khan 4 (5), DC 112/6 in 15.3 overs

Apr 1, 2023 10:54 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score: DC 110/5 in 15 overs

It's all on Warner now. DC need 84 to win in the last six overs, which is a long shot if there was any.

Apr 1, 2023 10:53 PM IST

IPL 2023 Live score: 50 for Warner!

That is Warner's 56th half century in the IPL, which is just ridiculous. But it has come in 45 balls, which is not good at all for DC. It is all on him now. 

Apr 1, 2023 10:47 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score IPL 2023: OUT! Powell goes

The match slipping out of DC's hands now and this might be a nice big win for LSG to start their season as well. googly from Bishnoi that skids on from outside off and takes Powell on the pads. Plumb out and that's another big blow.

Powell lbw b Ravi Bishnoi 1 (3), DC 96/5 in 14 overs

Apr 1, 2023 10:34 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score: GONE! Bishnoi gets Rossouw

Big appeal for LBW from Bishnoi but umpire is unmoved. Bishnoi begs for a review and Rahul goes for it. Looks pretty bad for the batter as the umpire checks the ultraedge. Rossouw, in fact marches off even before replays started showing and so he is gone for sure, the third umpire's call just a formality. Wow, what a blow this is for DC.

Rossouw c Mayers b Ravi Bishnoi 30 (20), DC 86/4 off 12 overs

Apr 1, 2023 10:27 PM IST

IPL 2023 Live score: FOUR AND SIX! Rossouw gets going!

Unadkat seemed set for a catch off the fifth ball of the 10th, he takes a chest high catch, tried flicking the ball up as his momentum took one foot over the boundary but when he caught it, his other foot was touching the rope! DC are 75/3 in 10 overs. 

Apr 1, 2023 10:22 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score IPL 2023: DC 58/3 in 9 overs

Warner is on 32 off 30, Rilee Roussouw at the other end with five off six. Roussouw is a dangerous player and so DC still well within a chance of pulling off this chase. Wood is sure to be taken off now. 

Apr 1, 2023 10:14 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score: GONE! Vicious bouncer from Wood, Sarfaraz goes!

Wood bangs it in for the last ball of the seventh at 137kph, Sarfaraz ducks and seems to make a last second decision to try a ramp. He ends up middling it but puts it straight down the throat of deep fine leg.

Sarfaraz Khan c Gowtham b Wood 4 (9), DC 48/3 in 7 overs

Apr 1, 2023 10:03 PM IST

IPL 2023 Live score: DC 42/2 in 5 overs

That over was pure havoc. The hat-trick ball ended up being declared a no-ball after David Warner reviewed a bouncer. Sarfaraz Khan took a swing at the free hit delivery and it took an edge and was caught behind. Which means in some other universe, Mark Wood has got a hat-trick. Sarfaraz survives the last two balls and that's the end of that little phenomenon. 

Apr 1, 2023 9:58 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score IPL 2023: GONE! TWO IN TWO FOR WOOD!

Wow another 147kph howitzer and Marsh is beaten by the sharp inward movement. The stumps have been smashed up. Wood on a hat-trick, jeepers creepers!

Marsh b Wood 0 (1), DC 41/2 off 4.4 overs

Apr 1, 2023 9:57 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score: OUT! Shaw falls!

Shaw b Wood 12 (9), DC 41/1 off 4.3 overs

Apr 1, 2023 9:55 PM IST

IPL 2023 Live score: FOUR! DC 40/0 after 4 overs

The last delivery of the third sent in at 137kph by Avesh and Warner gets a bottom edge on an attempted cut that goes straight behind for four. Some luck for the DC skipper.

Apr 1, 2023 9:47 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score: FOUR! DC off to a good start

Gowtham goes short on middle, Warner pulls fiercely over square leg to the rope. DC are 33/0 after 3 overs. 

Apr 1, 2023 9:43 PM IST

IPL 2023 Live score: FOUR! 17 runs from the 2nd!

Back of a length on the hips from Unadkat to Warner for the last ball of the second and that disappears to the deep fine leg boundary. Warner had hit another off the fourth and Shaw had got one off the second so expensive over for LSG.

Apr 1, 2023 9:40 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score IPL 2023: DC 9/0 in 1 over

Warner gets a boundary off the third ball and so that is a good tally from the first over for DC. LSG may have a good total on board but the dew factor will make this defence a tough nonetheless. 

Apr 1, 2023 9:35 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score: They are back!

All right, Kyle Mayers, who opened the batting brilliantly for LSG, now opens the bowling. Prithvi Shaw is facing up with David Warner at the other end.

Apr 1, 2023 9:29 PM IST

IPL 2023 Live score: Kyle Mayers talks

"It was a tricky surface at the start. It kept a bit low and the bounce was variable. But it's still a good wicket. Our bowlers need to use the wicket, it's gripping a bit and I think we'll be in good stead. [On the ball that got him out.] I think that's the drier end of the pitch. There's an area on that pitch that's very dry and the other end is full of grass so I think the spinners need to execute from that end in particular. It's a new surface. I tried to get information from the guys. It's tricky trying to get accustomed as fast as possible. [On being dropped on 14] It's always good to get some luck. Sometimes you play a good shot and a guy takes a blinder. So I'm happy to get an opportunity. I just wanted to do well on my first game and help my team and I did that."

Apr 1, 2023 9:19 PM IST

 LSG vs DC Live Score IPL 2023: LSG 193/6 in 20 overs

And the impact player Gowtham lives up to his billing! He hits the only ball he faces for a six, 22 runs off the last over for LSG. It is going to be hard to get a bigger “Impact Player” moment than that this season. Slower ball outside off, Gowtham smacks it over the bowler's head. LSG have scored over 190 runs on a pitch that Rovman Powell said looked slow. Yikes!

Apr 1, 2023 9:18 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score: LSG bring an impact player out!

Krishnappa Gowtham has come on to bat as an impact player and he will face just one ball. LSG taking the definition of impact player quite literally. He comes in from Badoni and so some skilfull maneuvering here from LSG. 

Apr 1, 2023 9:16 PM IST

IPL 2023 Live score: OUT! Badoni goes

What a blinder this youngster has played today, he ends up edging it to the wicketkeeper.

Badoni c †Khan b Sakariya 18 (7), LSG 187/6 (19.5 Ov)

Apr 1, 2023 9:14 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score IPL 2023: SIX AGAIN! Badoni doing a Dhoni!

He smashes the next ball over the bowler's head as well. Sakariya not really bowling to the field and Axar Patel shows how unhappy he is with that delivery. 16 runs off the last over so far and there are still 2 balls left. 

Apr 1, 2023 9:14 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score: SIX! Badoni lets fly!

Sakariya bowling the last over, third delivery is sent flying over the bowler's head. Two wides have been bowled and two singles so that's 10 runs off the first three balls. 

Apr 1, 2023 9:08 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score IPL 2023: LSG 171/5 in 19 overs

Ayush Badoni (remember him?) is on strike having scored five in three, Krunal is on 14 off 12. DC have brought on Aman Khan as an impact player in place of Khaleel Ahmed. Extra batter. 

Apr 1, 2023 9:04 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score: OUT! Pooran hits it straight to Shaw

That is straight at Shaw which is the only reason he was able to catch that as it was absolutely lasered by Pooran. Took less than a second for that ball to fly from the batter to extra cover. Shaw's face shows that the catch was as much an effort in self preservation as anything else. 

Pooran c Shaw b Ahmed 36 (21), LSG 165/5 in 18.3 overs

Apr 1, 2023 9:02 PM IST

IPL 2023 Live score: SIX! 

And a clean catch beyond the boundary from the ball person. Pooran is all class as he powers the firs tball of the 19th from Khaleel over the extra cover rope. 

Apr 1, 2023 8:54 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score IPL 2023: LSG 150/4 in 17 overs 

Pooran on 24 off 14, Krunal on 12 off 10. If this really is as slow as it was in that match between India and New Zealand, this is an unmitigated disaster for DC. But it might not be.

Apr 1, 2023 8:53 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score: SIX! Now Krunal Pandya

The elder Pandya sends Sakariya sailing over long-on off the fifth ball of the 17th. He has been standing by all this time but gets one himself at last. 

Apr 1, 2023 8:51 PM IST

IPL 2023 Live score: SIX AND FOUR! Pooran is in the mood

Pooran sends the second ball of the 17th into the stands. The ball is retrieved and brought back for the game, only for Pooran to send it to the boundary over square leg with disdain. He has raced to 23 off 12.

Apr 1, 2023 8:43 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score IPL 2023: LSG 127/4 in 15 overs 

Let's do a little recap here, the last T20 match to be played here was the second T20I between India and New Zealand and the surface was so slow that the pitch curator ended up getting the sack. New Zealand were limited to a score of 99/8. Easy-peasy, one would think, for the hosts to chase that, well think differently. It actually looked like the Kiwis might actually defend the target if it wasn't for Hardik Pandya and Suryakumar Yadav shutting up shop and putting up an unbeaten 31 off 32 balls for the fifth wicket. India chased down the target of 100 with six wickets and just one ball remaining. Captain Pandya said after the match that the pitch was a "shocker" and the curator later got a shocker on the mail saying that he has lost his job. The match was called a thriller by the BCCI's own commentators and yet, the UPCA thought the curator who made that pitch should not have a job any more. Quite extraordinary, to put it lightly.

Apr 1, 2023 8:41 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score: FOUR AND SIX! Pooran gets to work!

The fourth and fifth balls of the 15th sizzle past the boundary, one along the ground past deep backward square, the next over wide long-on.

Apr 1, 2023 8:41 PM IST

IPL 2023 Live score: OUT! Khaleel strikes!

And it's Marcus Stoinis. Khaleel is celebrating like a man possessed, a lot of relief there. Although that relief may be a bit misplaced considering it's not Stoinis he had dropped on 14, it was Mayers, who was eventually out on 73. Good for wicketkeeper Sarfaraz as well, it was a simple edge and caught behind but still, that will give the make-shift keeper feel good.  

Stoinis c Khan b Ahmed 12 (10), LSG 117/4 in 14.1 overs

Apr 1, 2023 8:37 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score IPL 2023: LSG 114/3 in 14 overs 

Apr 1, 2023 8:31 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score: SIX! Stoinis in the house now

Third ball of the 13th, Stoinis comes down the track to Kuldeep and clobbers the ball to the sight screen. Someone needs to get a stethoscope and check on that poor old ball it has been given a hammering today and there are still over seven overs to go in this innings. 

Apr 1, 2023 8:26 PM IST

IPL 2023 Live score: GONE! Sensational turn from Axar, Mayers falls

Mayers left standing there with his mouth slightly open. It would have taken something special for him to fall and that was special allright. Axar digs in the third ball of the 12th over at a good length outside off. Mayers looks to cut but the ball absolute careens off the pitch onto off stump. That's the kind of spin Shane Warne used to generate and made batters look silly. A great innings from Mayers ends, made the conditions look much better for batting than it probably is. 

Mayers b Patel 73 (38), LSG 100/3 in 11.3 overs

Apr 1, 2023 8:20 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score: SIX! CREAMED OVER COVERS!

Mayers's seventh six of the innings and this has been utterly smashed over extra cover. A lofted cover drive this was supposed to be but he has lasered it instead. Extraordinary hitting here. 

Apr 1, 2023 8:19 PM IST

IPL 2023 Live score: LSG 89/1 in 10 overs 

This partnership between Kyle Mayers and Deepak Hooda has reached 76 off 37. Mayers is going after all of them now. 

Apr 1, 2023 8:18 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score IPL 2023: Make that back to back sixes!

Axar goes wider next ball, Mayers smashes it over long-off. He has got to 63 in 33.

LSG vs DC Live Score: SIX! Mayers flaying away!

Somebody stop me, he is saying. Well, Khaleel could have done that before he was roaring in this manner and he dropped that chance. That dropped catch costing DC more and more here. Second ball of the 10th, Mayers sends it to the boundary over wide midwicket

Apr 1, 2023 8:14 PM IST

IPL 2023 Live score: SIX! 50 FOR MAYERS!

Mayers was dropped on 14, he has now got to fifty in 28 balls. Kuldeep goes full outside leg for the third ball of the ninth, Mayers slog sweeps that over deep backward square. What a debut he has had today for LSG. 

Apr 1, 2023 8:11 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score IPL 2023: LSG 60/1 in 8 overs

Delhi Capitals have come on field with slippery soap water in their hands. Another terrible misfield from Rovman Powell this time allows LSG to run three off the second last ball. This has to be  one of the worst fielding performances by any team in the first 10 overs of an inning at least in the history of the IPL itself.

LSG vs DC Live Score IPL 2023: SIX! Mayers making the most of his second life

Short from Mukesh for the second last ball of the seventh, Mayers wallops it into the second tier with the mightiest of pull shots. Every one of these will be hanging heavy on Khaleel now. 

Apr 1, 2023 8:02 PM IST

LSG vs DC Live Score: SIX! Mayers gets one at last

Length ball on off for the second delivery after the powerplay from Mukesh Kumar, Mayers loads up and unleashes a shot over long off. One gets a sense that it's not DC but the slow conditions Powell spoke about that has pinned down LSG here and that means that Delhi have a real task at hand at the moment.
