KL Rahul scored an unbeaten half-century as Delhi Capitals prevailed over Lucknow Super Giants by eight wickets in an IPL encounter in Lucknow on Tuesday.

Earlier, opener Aiden Markram scored a half-century and Mitchell Marsh, too, made a quick 45 but hosts Lucknow Super Giants could only manage 159 for 6.

Markram scored a 33-ball 52, while Marsh smashed a 36-ball 45 as the opening pair put on 87 in 10 overs.

But LSG lost momentum thereafter as right-arm pacer Mukesh Kumar (4/33) struck twice in the 14th over, taking the wickets of Abdul Samad and Marsh. Ayush Badoni (36 off 21 balls), though struck three boundaries in the last over, bowled by Mukesh, to give some respectability to the total.

Earlier, DC made one change in their playing XI, bringing in Sri Lankan quick Dushmantha Chameera in place of Mohit Sharma. LSG went into the game with an unchanged side.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
