Lucknow Super Giants captain KL Rahul has explained the reason behind the seventh defeat of IPL 2024 against Delhi Capitals. KL Rahul has admitted that we made a good start in bowling, but it did not pay off. He also said that the problem with us this season is that we lose wickets in the powerplay and after that it becomes difficult to recover. LSG lost against DC by 19 runs. This defeat has also dealt a blow to Lucknow's hopes of reaching the playoffs.
LSG captain KL Rahul said about the defeat in the post match presentation, “I think the wicket remained the same for the entire 40 overs. When we got JFM (Jack Fraser McGurk) out in the first over, we should take advantage of it.” But they – Shai Hope and Abhishek Porel – did well at the end, but 200 was a score we should have chased, which has been a problem for us all season. We keep losing a lot of wickets in the powerplay, we never get solid starts to include players like Stoinis and Pooran, that's the big reason why we are in this situation.”

It has now become very difficult for Lucknow Super Giants to reach the IPL 2024 playoffs. However, the team is not out of the playoff race as there is still one match left and the team has a chance to get 14 points, but the problem is that LSG will have to defeat Rajasthan Royals by a huge margin and maintain their net run rate. Will have to be improved. If LSG succeeds in defeating Rajasthan, but the margin is small then they will not be able to qualify for the playoffs.
