Following the win against Delhi Capitals (DC) in the previous fixture, Punjab Kings (PBKS) lock horns with the former in a return fixture in their forthcoming match. The two sides square off at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamsala on Wednesday, May 17.
While Delhi are officially eliminated from the race for playoffs, Punjab are still in the mix and will look for favourable results in their final two league fixtures. However, as much as Delhi will be playing for pride, they will also seek redemption and aim to knock Punjab out of the race for a top-four spot.
