Here’s how PBKS might match up against DC:
Jonny Bairstow:
The Englishman was dominant in Punjab’s previous game and appears to have found his footing in the IPL 2022. He has 202 runs in nine games, including two half-centuries.
Shikhar Dhawan:
Shikhar Dhawan, who is currently sixth in the Orange Cap race, has 402 runs off 12 games in IPL 2022 and will be looking to add to that total.
Bhanuka Rajapaksa:
The Sri Lankan was dismissed for a lowly one run off three balls against RCB. In the upcoming game, he will try to regain his form.
Liam Livingstone:
During Punjab’s previous game, the English all-rounder batted brilliantly and scored a half-century.
Mayank Agarwal:
The PBKS captain’s poor batting form continued, as he was dismissed for 19 runs off 16 balls in the previous match. In the first half of the season, the batter opened for Punjab, but he is now playing a different role to give the team more balance and get the most out of Bairstow and Rajapaksa.
Jitesh Sharma:
The wicketkeeper has batted well for PBKS and is an important cog in the team’s setup.
Harpreet Brar:
Harpreet Brar took a wicket in four overs against the Royal Challengers Bangalore. In addition, he could only contribute seven runs to his team’s total.
Rishi Dhawan:
This season, the all-rounder has been a bright spot in the Punjab team. He took two wickets in four overs against RCB, conceding only 36 runs.
Rahul Chahar:
The spinner was in fine form against RCB, taking two wickets. In total, he has 14 wickets for Punjab in 12 games.
Kagiso Rabada:
With 21 wickets in 11 games, the South African pacer is currently his team’s leading wicket-taker.
Arshdeep Singh:
Arshdeep Singh has been extremely dependable and cost-effective for Punjab this season. He is expected to remain in the starting lineup.
