In a nail-biting IPL 2025 encounter, Delhi Capitals (DC) defeated Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) by a single wicket, pursuing a record total of 210 in Visakhapatnam. Ashutosh Sharma was the savior, scoring an unbeaten 66 off 31 balls to seal the match with three balls to spare.
LSG, thanks to Nicholas Pooran's 75 and Mitchell Marsh's 72, posted 209/8. DC's bowlers, led by Mitchell Starc (3/42) and Kuldeep Yadav (2/20), restricted LSG in the final overs after a good beginning.
DC's pursuit derailed early at 7/3 but was given new life by debutant Vipraj Nigam's explosive 39 and Ashutosh's late attack. Six needed off the last over, Ashutosh smashed a massive six to help DC achieve their record IPL chase.
This electrifying win heralds a thrilling season of IPL ahead.
