Delhi Capitals will take on the Punjab Kings in their next encounter at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai. The Rishabh Pant-led side is coming off a loss in their previous game against the Royal Challengers Bangalore and is currently at the eighth position in the points table with two wins in five games. Mitchell Marsh has tested positive for Covid-19 in the Delhi camp and all the players in the squad have gone into isolation. Anrich Nortje might be back in the XI if he is fit as the other bowlers conceded a lot in the previous fixture.
On the other hand, Punjab Kings haven’t had the best of times as well and they suffered a big loss at the hands of the Sunrisers Hyderabad in their previous game. They are currently at the seventh position in the points table with three wins in six games and Mayank Agarwal is expected to be back in the XI for the upcoming game after missing out in the last fixture. Jonny Bairstow is yet to set the stage on fire this season and Punjab will expect him to come good soon.

Pitch Report
The last two games at this venue have produced contrasting results and it is one of the difficult grounds to defend targets as well. It will be better for the captain that wins the toss to bowl first. It won’t be easy to post big totals on the ground as well going by the games so far.
