Till now, IPL 2022 is going average for both the sides. Punjab Kings is at No.7 at the points table with 3 wins in 6 matches whereas Delhi Capitals are at No.8 with 2 wins in 5 games. Both teams suffered a lost in their previous games.
Punjab Kings lost against Sunrisers Hyderabad by 7 wickets and Delhi Capitals lost against Royal Challengers Bangalore. For Delhi Capitals, David Warner and Prithvi Shaw are looking in fine form. Except them no-one, specially middle-order hasn’t fired. Rovman Powell, Lalit Yadav and Mandeep Singh have all failed with the bat.
In last game, Mustafizur Rahman went for runs, so it is expected DC will bring back speed gun Anrich Nortje in his place. With the ball, Khaleel Ahmed and Kuldeep Yadav are in good form and are among wickets.
For Punjab Kings, Liam Livingstone is proving to be their key player in tournament. Except Livingstone, players has lacked consistency. Jonny Bairstow is someone whom Punjab Kings will be expecting to get in form. With the ball Odean Smith has leaked runs and with the bat as well, he hasn’t looked in touch except first game where he smashed 25* off 8 balls.

It will be interesting to see whether Punjab Kings will play Benny Howell in place of Smith or they still go with him. Consistency is something which PBKS players and team need to show.
