DC vs PBKS Match Preview
On Wednesday, the 32nd match of IPL 2022 will feature Delhi Capitals against Punjab Kings. Mitchell Marsh, who made his Capitals debut the night before, tested positive for Covid-19, which worried the Delhi camp. DC had previously lost by 16 runs against RCB after failing to chase down a 190-run mark. Against RCB, the bowlers let up 74 runs in the last five overs. The team’s batting lineup is primarily reliant on the trio of David Warner, Prithvi Shaw, and Rishabh Pant, which is a major issue, and other hitters will have to step up.
Punjab Kings, on the other side, were defeated by Sunrisers Hyderabad in their most recent encounter. After losing the toss, PBKS could only muster 151 runs, which SRH chased down in 18.5 overs. In terms of points, the two north Indian clubs are next to one other in the standings. PBKS is in seventh place with 6 points across their name, while DC is in eighth place with 4 points.

DC vs PBKS Must Picks
In the last two games, David Warner has been in outstanding form. In his second match, he scored 61 runs off 45 deliveries against KKR before scoring 66 runs off 38 deliveries against RCB in the preceding encounter. In just three games, Warner has established himself as the backbone of DC’s hitting lineup.
Shikhar Dhawan has scored over 30 runs in four of the tournament’s six games. Dhawan scored 70 runs off 50 deliveries and combined 97 runs in 9.3 overs with Mayank Agarwal against Mumbai Indians in the fifth match. He’ll almost certainly play a significant part in this game.
Liam Livingstone is the tournament’s highest run scorer for Punjab Kings. He has produced three half-centuries in the previous four matches, demonstrating why he is considered one of the top batsmen in limited-overs cricket. Livingstone has taken two wickets with the bat.
Rishabh Pant has only been dismissed once in five outings for a single-digit score. He’s gotten the starts, but he hasn’t been able to capitalise on them. Pant has a strike rate of 146.93 and has scored 144 runs at an average of 36. Despite scoring over 30 runs per innings three times, he has failed to score a half-century.
After relocating from Kolkata to Delhi, Kuldeep Yadav has found himself. With 11 wickets in five matches at an average of 14.72, an economy of 8.23, and a strike rate of 10.7, he is now DC’s highest wicket-taker.
