PBKS vs DC, IPL 2025: Punjab Kings vs Delhi Capitals match preview, Dream 11 predictions, head-to-head

PBKS vs DC, IPL 2025: Punjab Kings (PBKS ) would be eyeing a top-two finish when they take on already-eliminated Delhi Capitals (DC) in their penultimate match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Saturday.

The Punjab Kings are on third spot while Delhi Capitals are on fifth place in the points table. So far in the campaign, Punjab has won eight of its twelve games. Delhi, on the other hand, has won six of its thirteen games so far this season.

The last time these two teams played, the match was called off for security reasons because of the dispute between India and Pakistan earlier this month. In 10.1 overs, Punjab had raced to 122/1 in the match in Dharamshala. But now, they will have to start over against a deflated Capitals team that was eliminated following a crushing loss to the Mumbai Indians in a do-or-die game at the Wankhede Stadium on Wednesday.
