Lucknow ke Ekana Stadium mein IPL 2025 ka match number 40 hua ek zabardast twist ke saath shuru, jab Delhi Capitals ke skipper Axar Patel ne toss jeet kar pehle bowling karne ka faisla liya. Aur haan, DC ke playing XI mein ek major change bhi dekhne ko mila—Dushmantha Chameera aaye hain Mohit Sharma ki jagah.
Dusri taraf, Lucknow Super Giants ne apni winning combination mein koi badlav nahi kiya. Dono teams ne toss ke dauraan apne views share kiye jo game ke strategy ka clear idea dete hain.
💬 Captains Ke Statements Toss Ke Baad
Axar Patel: “Red soil wicket hai aur last match mein dew bhi tha. Agar hum achhi bowling karein to unko kam score pe rok sakte hain. Hum bas apni strength pe dhyaan de rahe hain. Injuries ke chalte ek badlav kiya gaya hai—Chameera in, Mohit out.”
Rishabh Pant: “Main bhi toss jeet ke pehle bowling hi karta. Wicket thoda slow reheta hai start mein, par baad mein better hota jaata hai. Bas wickets na gawaana aur situation ke according khelna zaroori hai. Hum same XI ke saath jaa rahe hain.”
