David Warner, the captain of the Delhi Capitals, admitted that the new Impact Player rule might be quite perplexing and worrisome for the management at the toss of the third IPL 2023 match against Lucknow Super Giants.
The southpaw added that the decision was a positive one because it allowed clubs to use one extra batter or bowler. Aman Khan, Delhi’s impact substitute, did not deliver in the game against the KL Rahul-led team, scoring just four runs in five deliveries.
It can occasionally be rather perplexing and even unpleasant (impact player). Yet, it’s a welcomed addition to the competition. David Warner stated at the toss, “Either a hitter or a bowler is greater.
In the third game of IPL 2023, Lucknow defeats Delhi by 50 runs.
Kyle Mayers, who was batting first for Lucknow, got things off to a fantastic start. The West Indies international established the pace of the game with a score of 73 from 38 deliveries. Later, Nicholas Pooran, batting as a stumper, made a stunning cameo of 36 runs off 21 deliveries, and Ayush Badoni, batting at number seven, scored 18 runs off 7 deliveries. As a result, Lucknow scored 193 runs and entered the second innings as the match’s favorites.
Mark Wood’s magnificent five-for, which completely dismantled Delhi’s batting lineup, served as proof that the bowlers also performed to their abilities. The swift series of dismissals by the England international—Prithvi Shaw, Mitchell Marsh, and Sarfaraz Khan—put Delhi in trouble. David Warner, the team’s captain, made an effort to save the situation by scoring 56 runs off of 48 deliveries, but it wasn’t enough.
Rilee Rossouw, a South African international, also made an effort to get going, but Lucknow’s bowlers pounded Delhi. The visiting team ultimately lost by 50 runs and must now return to the locker room to evaluate their performance. Before continuing on the adventure, it is especially important to look at and rearrange their batting, which completely failed in their season opener. Lucknow will be in a much better position following the victory since KL Rahul and company put on a comprehensive performance.
