Delhi Capitals will go head to head against Punjab Kings in the 32nd match of the ongoing Indian Premier League at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Pune on Wednesday. Punjab has won three out of their six matches whereas Delhi has managed two wins from five games.

Thus, both teams will be determined to improve their record in the ongoing season. We take a look at Picks for the match between Delhi Capitals and Punjab Kings. We will look at head-to-head records, stats, and players to look out for in the upcoming match.

Current form for Delhi Capitals: L W L L W

Delhi Capitals haven’t yet come up with consistent performances as they have failed to win the crucial stages of the game. Delhi had their noses in front against Royal Challengers but could not cross the line despite having the opposition at 92-5. Warner was the lone warrior in the batting order and they need to come up with a collective effort.

Punjab Kings have also managed two wins in their last five games. PBKS will need to pull up their socks with the bat as they could only manage 151 runs in the previous match against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Apart from Liam Livingstone, none of the PBKS batters could get going.
