IPL MATCH PREDICTION: Delhi Capitals vs Punjab Kings, match 32
At the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai, the Delhi Capitals will face the Punjab Kings in their next match. The Rishabh Pant-led side is coming off a loss to the Royal Challengers Bangalore in their previous game and is now in eighth place in the points standings with two victories in five games. In the Delhi camp, Mitchell Marsh tested positive for Covid-19, and the entire squad has been placed in isolation. If Anrich Nortje is fit, he could return to the XI after the other bowlers conceded a lot in the last match.
Punjab Kings, on the other hand, haven't had the best of luck, and their most recent match saw them lose badly to the Sunrisers Hyderabad. With three wins in six games, they are now in seventh place in the points table, and Mayank Agarwal is likely to return to the XI for the upcoming game after missing the previous match. Jonny Bairstow has yet to light up the stage this season, and Punjab will be hoping he does so soon.
