Pre-Match Analysis:

Punjab Kings knocked down Delhi Capitals by 31 runs in their last outing to remain alive in the Playoffs contention. Prabhsimran Singh’s maiden IPL ton set the stage on fire as they posted a competitive 167 runs on the board and later bowler’s skillful work won the game for them comfortably in the end. They share the same 12 points with the other 3 teams and remain 8th in the standings. The net run rate will definitely come into play when the points get tied and they should keep an eye on it.

Delhi Capitals became the 1st side to get knocked out of the tournament officially. They didn’t look like a team overall with players underperforming throughout the competition. Rishabh Pant’s absence hit them hard. David Warner’s captaincy needs to be questioned as his decisions weren’t always on the brighter side. Phil Salt who got picked up in the middle of the competition made some key contributions, scoring a couple of half-centuries. All-rounder Axar Patel has been their standout performer who rescued the side on multiple occasions. They must win their remaining 2 matches to avoid finishing last in the standings.
