Punjab Kings (PBKS) will be locking horns against Delhi Capitals (DC) in the 58th game of IPL 2025. The PBKS vs DC match is scheduled to be played at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamsala on Thursday (May 8).
Both the teams are in contention for the playoffs and will be eager to register a victory in the upcoming game. With 7 wins from 11 games, PBKS are currently at the third spot in the points table. They have also earned a point from the washed out game against Kolkata Knight Riders.
A win over DC will all but secure a place for PBKS in the playoffs. The Shreyas Iyer-led side is coming into this game on the back of a thumping 37-run win over Lucknow Super Giants. PBKS completely outplayed LSG in that game and took another big step towards qualifying for the playoffs for the first time since 2014.
Your daily dose of cricket!
Batting first, PBKS scored 236/5 in 20 overs with Prabhsimran Singh scoring 91 runs. With the ball, PBKS had reduced LSG to 73/5 before the latter finished their innings on 199/7.
DC, on the other hand, are at the sixth fifth spot in points table with 13 points from 11 games. DC are fast approaching the do-or-die territory and will be desperate to win the upcoming game. After starting their season with four wins in a row, DC have managed to win only 2 of their 7 games.
They were lucky to escape with a point in their last game and will be eyeing a better show against PBKS. Facing Sunrisers Hyderabad in their last game, DC scored only 133/7 before rain saved them the blushes.
