Punjab Kings go head-to-head against Delhi Capitals in the 64th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2023) at Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium Dharamsala on 17th May, Wednesday at 7:30 PM IST.
Both these teams met just recently, the game that Delhi Capitals should’ve won was made a mess in the end and handed Punjab the victory. Batting first, Delhi did well to restrict the Punjab batters, however, Prabhsimran Singh was batting on a different surface as he notched up a century on a track where the rest of the batters failed to get going. Punjab Kings got to 160 plus target and thought they were 10 or 15 runs short.
Delhi Capitals started off the run chase in a blistering fashion, David Warner was back at his best as he notched up a fifty. However, when Harpreet Brar and Rahul Chahar came back to bowl at a later stage, they extracted turn and bounce which resulted in the capitulation of Delhi Capitals batters. From being 80 odd 2, they finished 136 and that meant they lost the game by 31 runs. With that loss, Delhi Capitals crashed out of this year’s IPL.
