Former South African pacer Morne Morkel lavished praise on IPL 2022 new franchise Lucknow Super Giants for their consistent performance in the early stages of the tournament.Lauding LSG’s balance in every department, especially their bowling unit, Morkel claimed that the KL Rahul-led side looks like a team to beat in the tournament.”It was a fantastic effort from Lucknow Super Giants to defend 170 against a classy Sunrisers Hyderabad batting line-up (in their previous game). They held their nerves and bowled a good line to not let the opposition batters get away. So, the Super Giants are looking like a team to beat,” Morkel said on Cricket Live on Star Sports.Praising LSG’s formidable pace attack Morkel said, “Lucknow Super Giants have got three fantastic bowlers to bowl at the back end (against Sunrisers Hyderabad). Avesh Khan picked up two crucial wickets in the 18th over, that was a make or break (situation) in the game. AJ Tye is showing his skills and Jason Holder was also brilliant at the close of the innings. So, obviously I am relieved from a bowler’s perspective that teams are winning defending the total.”

David Warner ‘excited’ to return to Delhi Capitals
World Cup-winning player and the fifth highest run-getter in the Indian Premier League, David Warner expressed that he is excited to join the Delhi camp once again. The Australian started his IPL career with the Delhi franchise in 2009. “It’s exciting to be back in the franchise which played a big part at the beginning of my IPL career. There are some familiar faces around and there are some new faces, so I’m excited to get into it,” said the Australian.
” Warner, Nortje are match-winners”
Former South Africa captain Graeme Smith believes that having ‘match-winners’ David Warner and Anrich Nortje in the playing eleven of Delhi Capitals will ensure the duo can win the matches single-handedly.

But they are now available for selection when Delhi face Lucknow Super Giants at the DY Patil Stadium later on Thursday.
