IPL 2025: DC vs LSG Match Prediction – Who Will Start Their Season With a Win in Match 4?
March 24, 2025: IPL 2025: Match 4 – Delhi Capitals vs Lucknow Super Giants | Who Will Win Today’s Match?
Match 4 of IPL 2025 promises an intense face-off as Delhi Capitals (DC) go head-to-head with Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) on Monday, March 24, at the Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Stadium in Visakhapatnam. Both teams are looking to start strong after narrowly missing the playoffs last year.
Under new captain Axar Patel, Delhi looks rejuvenated. They’ve added KL Rahul as their wicketkeeper-batter, while Faf du Plessis and young talent Jake Fraser-McGurk bolster the top order. With a solid bowling attack featuring Mitchell Starc, Kuldeep Yadav, and T Natarajan, DC has the firepower to dominate both ends.

LSG has handed over captaincy duties to Rishabh Pant, who was roped in for ₹27 crore. Their batting unit is packed with proven performers like Nicholas Pooran, David Miller, and Aiden Markram. However, their pace department has been hit by injuries to Mayank Yadav, Mohsin Khan, and Avesh Khan, though Shardul Thakur steps in as a replacement.
The Visakhapatnam pitch is typically batting-friendly with an average first-innings score of 170+. Expect high scores and some turn for spinners in the middle overs. Early swing for pacers could make the powerplay crucial. Weather is mostly clear, though light showers are predicted during the day.

Delhi Capitals (DC):
Jake Fraser-McGurk, KL Rahul, Faf du Plessis, Abishek Porel (wk), Axar Patel (c), Tristan Stubbs, Mitchell Starc, Kuldeep Yadav, Mukesh Kumar, Mohit Sharma, T Natarajan
Impact Sub: Ashutosh Sharma
Lucknow Super Giants (LSG):
Arshin Kulkarni, Mitchell Marsh, Rishabh Pant (c & wk), Nicholas Pooran, Ayush Badoni, David Miller, Abdul Samad, Shahbaz Ahmed, Rajvardhan Hangargekar, Ravi Bishnoi, Shamar Joseph
Impact Sub: Akash Deep
The swashbuckling left-hander was LSG’s second-highest run-scorer in 2024, scoring 499 runs at an average of 62.37 and a strike rate of 178.21. Pooran’s finishing skills and ability to counter spin make him a key figure tonight.
DC skipper Axar Patel will be eyeing a strong start with the ball. His consistency in the middle overs and helpful conditions in Vizag make him a potential match-winner. He picked up 11 wickets in IPL 2024 and comes fresh from India’s title wins in the T20 World Cup 2024 and Champions Trophy 2025.
Considering the depth in bowling, recent form, and home advantage at Visakhapatnam, Delhi Capitals are slightly ahead in the contest. However, a Nicholas Pooran special or a Rishabh Pant blitz could turn the tide in LSG’s favor.
Predicted Winner: Delhi Capitals (DC)
But expect a close contest if LSG’s middle order clicks.
