IPL 2026, Punjab Kings (PBKS) vs Delhi Capitals (DC) Playing 11, Full Squad, Players List: Punjab Kings, reeling from back to back 3 defeats, will look to get their form back on track at the picturesque HPCA Stadium at Dharamshala, their spiritual home stadium. To get back to winning ways, they’ll not find a better team to face than Delhi Capitals who are on a losing streak. The last time these two met was that high scoring match last month when Punjab chased down 264 runs against Delhi at the Arun Jaitley Stadium.
Coming to the team, Punjab is unlikely to tinker with the combination that have brought them to the dance in all their wins of the season. If they do want to change, the Shreyas Iyer-led outfit might look to give Azmatullah Omarzai a shot in place of Marcus Stoinis with the Australian looking a touch out of form.

For Delhi though, they have little to lose so they might just give Abishek Porel a go in place of the misfiring Sameer Rizvi. Porel was their best batter in that collapse against RCB and it raised a lot of eye brows when he wasn’t retained in the playing XI after that match. They might also opt to go for pacer Auqib Nabi in place of a out of form Kuldeep Yadav.
