The 58th match of the season between Punjab Kings and Delhi Capitals will be played at one of the most picturesque stadiums in India, the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamsala. This clash holds immense significance for both teams as they desperately need a win to stay in contention for playoff qualification.
Punjab Kings, currently placed third on the points table, have a golden opportunity to climb to the top with a win over Delhi. They’ve played 11 matches so far, securing 7 victories, suffering 3 losses, and having one game washed out against KKR.
On the other hand, Delhi Capitals’ previous game against Sunrisers Hyderabad was abandoned due to rain. Before the interruption, DC struggled with the bat and posted only 133/7. The match was slipping away, but the rain interruption earned them a crucial point.
