LSG had won the toss and opted to field against DC, but DC’s middle-order stepped up to post 208/4 from 20 overs. Jake Fraser-McGurk, one of the finds of this season, was dismissed for a two-ball duck but Shai Hope (38), Rishabh Pant (33), Abishek Porel (58) and Tristan Stubbs (57*) led them to a challenging total. The highest partnership was a 92-run stand between Porel and Hope for the second wicket.

Barring Nicholas Pooran (61) and Arshad Khan (58*), none of the other Lucknow batters could capitalise on their starts as they were restricted to 189/9 from 20 overs in their chase. Ishant Sharma, with figures of 3/34 was the pick of the DC bowlers, whereas Khaleel Ahmed, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Mukesh Kumar and Tristan Stubbs collected a wicket each.
