Match Preview by Shashank Kishore DC have lots of catching up to do to give PBKS a fight
2:30pm We're nearly halfway into IPL 2026 and don't you miss Test cricket already? Jokes aside, it's been an excellent season for Punjab Kings and they'll on another North Indian team in Delhi Capitals, who haven't had the success that PBKS have had. Their top order has been hit and miss, their impact player selection has been inconsistent. They've had issues with the fifth and sixth bowler at times, they can't afford that if they are to challenge PBKS.
