THE LOWDOWN
PUNJAB KINGS
- With the worst net-run-rate of all the sides still in with a realistic chance of making the play-offs, Punjab Kings have it all to do in their final two games of the league stage, starting here against rock-bottom Delhi.
- Not being able to put together a significant winning run across the competition so far has been the key failing of Punjab and should they lose this one, it would be the fourth consecutive time that they have lost following victory in their previous match.
DELHI CAPITALS
- Delhi Capitals have already been eliminated from the 2023 IPL with two fixtures still to play having lost eight of their 12 matches played so far, a huge disappointment when taking into account the hopes they will have had at the start if the tournament.
- They can still avoid the dreaded wooden spoon with a positive finish to the campaign, although they are coming off the back of consecutive losses, most recently against their opponents here.
THE PREDICTION
These two franchises locked horns just four days ago in Delhi, with Punjab Kings comfortably coming out on top, winning by 31 runs. The Capitals have not been good enough over the entirety of the 2023 IPL, the batting proving desperately disappointing and the bowling lacking threat. It’s that stage of the competition where overseas players especially may have their eye on future endeavours at Delhi, which could further affect their performances in an adverse manner. Punjab Kings though, still have plenty to play for and are expected to complete a brace of victories over Delhi.
