• Sam Curran has been below average with both bat and ball in the last few games. You can either drop him, especially when Punjab bats first or make him captain in 1-2 teams.

• Khaleel Ahmed will be one of the best differential picks in this game. He will bowl in the power play and then in the death overs which makes him a good pick for this game.  

• Rahul Chahar will be a good pick as well. He picked up 2 wickets in the last game. 

• Pick Mukesh Kumar if plays.  

• Sikandar Raza will be an excellent differential pick as well.

Spots left: 2

Highest ownerships from the outside base team: Kuldeep, Ishant, Jitesh.

Jitesh vs Rossouw

• Punjab’s top 4 is looking in good form and there are chances that Jitesh gets to bat when there are only 2-3 overs left. This affects his fantasy value.

• Rilee Rossouw will bat at 4 for Delhi and he has looked in good touch. Rossouw is a good player of spin bowling and will be a key batter against Harpreet Brar and Rahul Chahar.  

Ishant vs Khaleel

• Ishant Sharma has been in good form and is bowling well with the new ball.  

• Khaleel will bowl 2 overs in the power play and then 1-2 in the death overs. You can drop Ishant if Delhi bowls 2nd. 

• Other Picks: Kuldeep Yadav, Mukesh Kumar, Sikandar Raza

PBKS vs DC Dream11 Prediction: Who will win the battle between Punjab Kings and Delhi Capitals?

Delhi Capitals have struggled very badly, especially with the bat. They will look to play for pride and may give a tough time to the Punjab Kings. Punjab, meanwhile, will look to continue their form from the last game and register another win against the Capitals. Punjab certainly has the resources for doing that and they will be the favourites to win the match.
