Delhi Capitals face an early setback in their IPL 2026 opener without star pacer Mitchell Starc, sidelined by shoulder and elbow injuries confirmed over the past 48 hours, weakening their death overs attack against Lucknow Super Giants' power-packed batting at the spin-friendly Ekana Stadium. LSG, captained by Rishabh Pant, boast a formidable top order featuring Aiden Markram, Mitchell Marsh, and Nicholas Pooran, complemented by spinners Wanindu Hasaranga and Shahbaz Ahmed suited to the slower Lucknow pitch. Head-to-head records stand even at 3-3, but LSG's home advantage and DC's pace concerns tilt trader consensus toward the hosts; toss winner may opt to bowl first amid potential dew. Weather forecasts clear skies with temperatures around 32°C.
