Punjab Kings vs Delhi Capitals Predictions
Third-placed Punjab Kings have lost just one of their last six matches and are one point off joint top spot. The Capitals have shown their quality this season but have gone off the boil and should be easy to beat.
- Punjab Kings’ Prabhsimran Singh hit seven sixes in his 48-ball innings of 91 against Lucknow Super Giants.
- Punjab Kings’ Shreyas Iyer has scored 72 & 45 in his last 2 innings.
- Delhi Capitals’ Faf du Plessis has scored 50, 22 & 62 in his last 5 innings.
- Delhi Capitals’ Tristan Stubbs has scored 31, 34 & 41* in his last 5 innings.
Head-to-Head
Delhi Capitals have won three and lost two of their last five matches against Punjab Kings.
Punjab Kings Form
Punjab Kings made it four wins from their last five completed matches when they beat Lucknow Super Giants by 37 runs.
The Kings top-order all made useful contributions as they reached 236/5 off their 20 overs. Prabhsimran Singh was the star of the innings, scoring a magnificent 91 off 48 balls.
The Punjab attack had the Super Giants in huge trouble at 73/5 after 10 overs. They ended on 199/7 off their 20 overs, with Arshdeep Singh (3/16, econ 4.00) and Azmatullah Omarzai (2/33) running through their top six.
Punjab Kings Team News
The Punjab Kings will be looking to Marcus Stoinis for a big contribution with the bat now that batting star Glenn Maxwell has pulled out of this season’s remaining fixtures due to a finger injury.
Delhi Capitals Form
Delhi Capitals suffered their third defeat in their last four completed matches when they lost to the Knight Riders by 14 runs.
The Knight Riders posted a challenging score of 204/9 off their 20 overs, with Mitchell Starc picking up 3/43. Delhi Capitals were in trouble at 60/3 but recovered thanks to Faf du Plessis (62) and Axar Patel (43). They ended 14 runs short on 190/9 off their 20 overs.
Their last match against Sunrisers Hyderabad saw the Capitals struggling on 133/7 (Tristan Stubbs 41*) at the end of their 20 overs when rain ended the match.
Delhi Capitals Team News
The struggling Capitals middle-order has caused the Delhi side to slip to fifth place on the IPL table despite winning six of their first eight matches this season. They will in particular be hoping for a return to form for KL Rahul.
Verdict
I am backing Punjab Kings to win. I am also backing Prabhsimran Singh to top score for Punjab Kings.
Faf du Plessis is a good bet to top score for the Delhi Capitals.
Faf du Plessis is a good bet to top score for the Delhi Capitals.
