In their first season, KL Rahul guided Lucknow Super Giants to a respectable season. In spite of this, the team has a more talented group of players at their disposal and has been motivated to win the first game of the season.
Quinton de Kock of South Africa will be the only prominent player unavailable for the Lucknow Super Giants due to his national duties.
The Delhi Capitals’ most recognizable player may not be eligible for this season, but stars like David Warner, Rovwan Powell, Mitchell Marsh, and others can make DC one of the underdog teams in the 2023 IPL.
David Warner, a former silverware-winning captain with SRH, is likely to command the newly formed side now that Rishabh Pant is out for the year. Anrich Nortje and Lungi Ngidi won’t be able to participate in the game because of national obligations, leaving their bowling section short.

Given that 157 runs are the average first-innings score in T20s, this location is unlikely to be a comfortable hunting ground for the batsmen, which may cause both captains to want to bowl.
A high temperature of 28 degrees Celsius and partly cloudy weather are expected.
The surface provides pacers with an even bounce. As the game goes on, the surface will also provide some assistance to the spinners.
