PBKS vs DC, IPL Match Highlights: Sameer Rizvi powers Delhi Capitals to six-wicket win against Punjab Kings
PBKS vs DC, IPL Match Highlights: Delhi Capitals (DC) ended their IPL 2025 campaign with a six-wicket win against Punjab Kings (PBKS) at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Saturday. The tie was a replay of the match between the two sides at the HPCA Stadium in Dharamsala, which was abandoned midway due to cross border tension between India and Pakistan.
However, unlike the previous meeting, Punjab, who have already qualified for the playoffs, got off to a slow start after being asked to bat first. While Delhi did a fair job to keep Punjab in check with wickets at regular intervals, they, however, failed to contain Shreyas Iyer and Marcus Stoinis rubbed further salt to their wounds. Iyer smashed yet another half-century and Stoinis returned unbeaten on 44 off just 16 balls, featuring three 4s and four 6s. Their combined effort apart from vital contribution from others helped Punjab pile a challenging 206/8 on the board. This was the seventh time Punjab breached the 200-run mark this season, which is the joint most by any franchise in the history of the competition. It is also noteworthy that all 200-plus totals for Punjab have come batting first.
KL Rahul and Faf du Plessis then gave Delhi a blistering start in the 207 chase, which the team wrapped up with three balls to spare. The pair added 55 for the opening wicket before Marco Jansen crashed the party and removed Rahul for 35(21). Karun Nair, who made a comeback to the Indian Test squad, joined the chase and opened his account with a boundary. But shortly after Delhi lost Du Plessis for 23(15) against Harpreet Brar.
Afghanistan's Sediqullah Atal got a reprieve but couldn't do much despite the lifeline. He was dismissed for 22(16) but Nair kept DC remain in hunt. He and Sameer Rizvi combined to add 62 runs for the fourth wicket before Brar gave Punjab the much-needed breakthrough. The spinner dismissed Nair for 44(27) to register his second scalp of the match.
But Rizvi and Tristan Stubbs ensured there were no further hiccups as the duo drove the team home with the former fittingly finishing the show with a stylish six. Rizvi returned unbeaten on 58 off 25 balls, an innings laced with three 4s and five 6s. Stubbs played the second fiddle and added 18* off 14.
Meanwhile, the Punjab innings began with Priyansh Arya getting out cheaply against Mustafizur Rahman, who eventually finished with three scalps. Josh Inglis and Prabhsimran Singh then ran the show before the Aussie got stumped for 32(12) against Vipraj Nigam. The spinner then got rid of Prabhsimran in his next over for 28(18).
Iyer and Nehal Wadhera then moved the innings forward and added 41 for the fourth wicket. Mukesh Kumar broke the stand, dismissing the latter for run-a-ball 16. Iyer led from the front as wickets kept tumbling at the other end. Shashank Singh was packed for 11(10), following which Kuldeep Yadav struck twice in same over, which included the prized wicket of Iyer for 53(34). However, a late punch by Stoinis disrupted Delhi's momentum entirely.
Meanwhile, Du Plessis once again led Delhi as Axar Patel continued to remain on the sideline after missing the must-win encounter against Mumbai Indians earlier this week.

STRATEGIC TIMEOUT! The equation: 61 runs needed from 36 balls, with 7 wickets still in the bank. Delhi Capitals, with Stubbs, Sharma and Nigam still to come, are looking like they are thundering towards a victory to end their season on a high! Punjab looked like they were clawing their way back, but these last few overs have just blown the game wide open. That 17-run over from Praveen Dubey in the 11th has completely shifted the momentum. Apart from one miserly 4-run over, the other three since the 10th have been plundered for 49! The Kings desperately need some magic, some inspiration, to prevent a defeat here. They need wickets, and not just one or two, but a cluster of them! Harpreet Brar is back into the attack. His figures so far: 2 overs, 18 runs, and a crucial wicket.

Karun Nair telegraphs his intentions for the paddle sweep early, and Harpreet Brar cleverly arrows one in, bang on the leg stump line. Nair misses, the woodwork doesn't! The leg stump is sent cartwheeling! Brar is ecstatic, understandably so, pumping his fist in celebration! The 62-run partnership is broken. Nair departs for a valuable 44 off 27, and Delhi Capitals are 155 for 4 after 15 overs. The equation is now a tantalizing 51 needed from the final 30 balls.

STRATEGIC TIMEOUT! The equation: 61 needed off 36 deliveries, with 7 wickets still in the bank! And let's not forget the firepower still to come – Stubbs, Sharma, and Nigam are all waiting in the wings! You have to say, folks, the Delhi Capitals are now charging full steam ahead towards victory in what could be their season finale! Punjab clawed their way back with some middle-over wickets, but the dam has burst in the last few overs! Dubey's 11th over went for 17, and that's where the momentum decisively shifted. A brief respite of 4 runs in one over, but the other three have leaked a staggering 49! The Kings desperately need a rabbit out of the hat here. They need wickets, and not just one or two, but a flurry! Here comes Harpreet Brar, who's had a mixed bag so far: 2 overs, 18 runs, and a wicket.
1 RunOver 14.2Delhi 148/3
Just a single. A quiet run.
1 RunOver 14.1Delhi 147/3
Brar gets away with that one! It was dragged down, angling into the pads, and Nair rocks back, pulling it hard. However it only went to the fielder at deep square leg on the bounce. Just a single to the total.
1 RunOver 14.1Delhi 147/3
Brar gets a thick edge, and it flies past the fielder for a lucky escape! He'll breathe a sigh of relief after that one!
MATCH INFO
Strategic timeout called! The equation is finely poised: 61 runs required from just 36 deliveries with a healthy 7 wickets still in the bank. And the cavalry is waiting! Stubbs, Ashutosh Sharma, and Vipraj Nigam – all dangerous batsmen – are yet to unleash their firepower. Delhi Capitals, it seems, are absolutely charging towards a triumphant finish in their final match of the season!
