Delhi Capitals won comprehensively against the Punjab Kings and made their playoffs chances brighter. The equation is simple for them. Win the remaining match and enter the playoffs in style. But for Punjab Kings, with this loss, it is going to be a mathematical fest.
Punjab Kings have won the toss and elected to bowl first. Delhi Capitals have promoted Sarfaraz Khan to the top which yielded good results. It provided them fiery start. Mitchell Marsh on the other end played the anchor role. However, other than this there is not much contribution from the others and as a result, Delhi Capitals could only post 159 runs.
Chasing a moderate total, PBKS has got a good start. However, the middle-order collapsed badly. None of Rajapaksa, Livingstone, and Mayank Agarwal have managed to get double figures. Jitesh Sharma fought with 44 to his name. However, Delhi bowlers were effective. Especially Shardul Thakur who took 4 wickets.
