Punjab Kings Team Preview
BATTING Camp
- Punjab Kings have the best batting depth in their squad. Starting from the skipper himself Shikhar Dhawan, Prabhsimran Singh has provided good starts. Middle-order is handled by experienced Liam Livingstone, Matthew Short, and Jitesh Kumar.
- Sam Curran and Sikander Raza are quite impressive in the role of finishers.
BOWLING Camp
- Bowling is the major weak point in the team, they totally rely on Arshdeep Singh and if his magic doesn’t work then the whole bowling line-up fails completely.
- Spin attack is also not up to the mark having Harpreet Brar leading the attack.
PBKS Possible Starting 11
Prabhsimran Singh, Shikhar Dhawan (c), Matthew Short, Liam Livingstone, Jitesh Sharma (wk), Sam Curran, Shahrukh Khan, Harpreet Brar, Rishi Dhawan, Rahul Chahar, Arshdeep Singh
Delhi Capitals Team Preview
BATTING Camp
- Delhi recently chased a mammoth score against RCB which completely highlighted their batting strength.
- Philip Salt, D Warner, M Marsh, this trio is batting really well for the team plus we saw consecutive runs from the bat of Rilee Rossouw which is a major positive for the side.
- They don’t have a reliable Indian batter except Axar Patel, to attack the spin and strengthen the middle batting order.
BOWLING Camp
- Bowling is the major weak point in the team, they totally rely on Kuldeep and Axar to take wickets at crucial stages.
- Pace attack is also not up to the mark having Ishant Sharma leading the attack. We recently saw a good performance from Khaleel Ahmed in the last game against CSK.
DC Possible Starting 11
David Warner (c), Philip Salt (wk), Mitchell Marsh, Rilee Rossouw, Manish Pandey, Aman Hakim Khan, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Mukesh Kumar, Ishant Sharma, Khaleel Ahmed
DC vs PBKS Betting Tips
Top Batter
- Rilee Rossouw can be the top run-scorer for DC in the upcoming game, he was the only successful batter on the tricky wicket at Chepauk and scored 35 runs in the last game against CSK.
- PBKS’s S Dhawan can score a half-century in this game, he already has 3 half-centuries so far and loves to play on the Delhi track.
Top Bowler
- We predict Arshdeep to be the top wicket-taker for PBKS, he has impressed everyone with his bowling and has 17 wickets so far.
- Axar can capitalise the pitch situation and take important wickets in his spell against PBKS. He bowled very well in the last game and took 3 wickets.
