IPL 2024: Nortje, Lalit Come In As DC Elect To Bowl First Against Unchanged SRH
Arun Jaitley Stadium: Delhi Capitals have won the toss and elected to bowl first against Sunrisers Hyderabad on their return to the Arun Jaitley Stadium here on Saturday. The match is also DC captain Rishabh Pant’s return to his home ground since his return to competitive cricket last month.
DC, ranked sixth in points table, come into their first game of IPL 2024 at their original home venue on the back of thrashing Gujarat Titans by six wickets in Ahmedabad. Fourth-placed SRH, on the other hand, enter into this match after shattering their own record of highest-ever IPL total by posting 287-3 against Royal Challengers Bengaluru, and win by 25 runs.
After winning the toss, Pant, who is playing an IPL match in Delhi after 1813 days, said off-spin all-rounder Lalit Yadav replaces seam-bowling all-rounder Sumit Kumar. Fast-bowler Anrich Nortje comes in for veteran pacer Ishant Sharma, who suffered a back spasm just five minutes before the toss happened.
