DC vs PBKS Dream11 Prediction: Match 59 of IPL 2023 Playing 11, Pitch Report and Fantasy Cricket Tips for Delhi Capitals vs Punjab Kings Dream11 Team
Published on: May 13, 2023 9:22 am IST|Updated on: May 13, 2023 9:23 am IST
Delhi Capitals go head to head against Punjab Kings in the 59th match of IPL 2023 at Arun Jaitley Stadium Delhi on 13th May, Saturday at 7:30 PM IST.
After thumping Royal Challengers Bangalore, Delhi Capitals came up against belligerent Chennai Super Kings. Delhi did splendidly well to restrict that powerful batting line-up to 167. Delhi went into the break thinking that this game was in their bag, but the batters made a meal of that run chase.
David Warner got out in the first over and Phil Salt was having all sorts of trouble facing Deepak Chahar and he departed early as well. The game was in the hands of Manish Pandey and Rilee Rossouw but they failed to get going and once they perished, Delhi went through the motion and fell short by 27 runs.
This is a must-win game for Punjab Kings now, they have lost two in a row and cannot afford to lose any more games. Punjab Kings are in the eighth position on the points table and they can very well go to the bottom of the table if they don’t get it right. Punjab Kings were up against Kolkata Knight Riders. Their batters could only post 179 on a good batting wicket and the bowlers couldn’t make early inroads and resulting in 5 wickets defeat at the hands of Knight Riders.

Arun Jaitley Stadium Pitch Report
The pitch in Arun Jaitley Stadium is a belter for the batters. The Pacers don’t have much to do on this surface. However, the spinners will come into play at some stage of the game and the ball gets slower and lower a bit as well. With the fast outfield, the batters will enjoy their powerplay. Teams winning the toss will bowl first. The average first innings score on this track is 160.
The surface at Delhi is a belter for the batters, there’ll be something in it for the faster bowlers in the first few overs but if they get through, they can make a merry. The pitch will stay true throughout and the batters have to ensure they get as many as they can. The game against Royal Challengers Bangalore showed that Bangalore were on its way to posting a huge total. Six wickets were picked by pacers and a solitary wicket for a spinner.
