On May 17, IPL 2023 match number 64 will take place at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium, and it will mark the second time this season that Delhi Capitals (DC) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) will face off against one another.
The two sides last faced off in Delhi during Match No. 59 of the IPL 2023, where the visitors prevailed by a score of 31 runs. Prabhsimran Singh, who batted first for the Kings, stole the stage with an incredible century.
As his team reached a total of 167/7 in 20 overs, the right-handed hitter scored 103 runs off 65 balls while hitting ten fours and six sixes.
In reply, DC captain David Warner made a half-century (54) but other players made minimal contributions. The Capitals were restricted to 136/8 thanks to the spinner Harpreet Brar’s 4/30 performance. Check complete details on PBKS vs DC head-to-head records.
Punjab Kings
After defeating Delhi in their own stadium in the previous game, Punjab Kings will enter this one with confidence. Due to a subpar Net Run Rate in comparison to other teams, they are ranked eighth on the points table with 6 wins and 6 losses each.
Since they have an extremely low NRR, they must win their final two games handily in order to stay alive in the competition. They must also hope that other outcomes will go their way.
Delhi Capitals
Delhi Capitals enter the match off a defeat to Punjab Kings by 31 runs in their previous match at Arun Jaitley Stadium. They were the first team eliminated in IPL 2023 as a result of their loss in the previous game.
Three games after DC was eliminated, SRH also joined them as a result of their most recent loss to GT.
