After the opening weekend, the IPL 2025 will pit Delhi Capitals (DC) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) against each other. It will be the fourth match of the season as DC host LSG on their adopted home ground in Visakhapatnam.
The match promises to be a fierce contest as Rishabh Pant and KL Rahul play against their respective former IPL franchises. Both teams had an average season last year, failing to secure playoff berths, with both of them captaining the squads. But now they would like to start afresh and begin their campaigns with a win.
As both teams gear up, here’s Visakhapatnam’s pitch and weather report for the DC vs LSG match in IPL 2025.

The ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium has hosted 15 IPL matches. And it seems to be a balanced venue.
Teams batting first have won eight times here, while teams have found success chasing targets seven times. Winning a toss here may not play a huge role either in how a game pans out.
The average score in Vizag is around 167, which might be enough on some days. But going by recent games, teams need to push harder and go beyond 190-200.
If they manage anything above 190, it can be defended as batting becomes difficult in the second innings.
DC vs LSG, 4th Match, IPL 2025: ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium, Visakhapatnam Pitch Report
The pitch in Visakhapatnam offers a lot of help to spinners, especially in the second innings. Spinners from both sides will test batters with their skills.
There’s enough grip in the surface and a low bounce might create problems for batters. So batters need to settle down before they start with their fireworks here.
Fast bowlers, though, may not have a lot of favourable conditions to deceive batters. All in all, it will be a balanced wicket.
