The league is getting tighter with every passing match and Punjab Kings and Delhi Capitals are all set to lock horns in what could be a season-defining clash.
This encounter will be held at the HPCA Stadium in Dharamsala on May 8, with action kicking off at 7:30 PM IST.
Punjab are sitting comfortably with seven wins from eleven games, placing them inside the top three. A win here might just take them to the top, giving them a shot at a Qualifier 1 spot.
Delhi, however, don’t have the same breathing room. They’re currently fifth, with six wins, and after a few recent stumbles, they desperately need two more points to stay in the playoff race.

PBKS vs DC: Predictions
Punjab Kings come in with the upper hand. They’ve taken two wins in their last three games, with one match being called off due to rain. They also smashed a massive 236 in their last outing at this venue, showing just how dangerous their batting can be here.
Delhi’s recent outings haven’t been as promising. Their bowling hasn’t been convincing, and their batting has wobbled under pressure.
If Punjab bat first, they could once again aim for a score of 180 or more, especially with their top order in form. If they get that, their bowlers should have enough support to defend it.
