Punjab Kings defeated Delhi Capitals with a stunning 31 runs victory. Prabhsimran Singh emerged as the player of the match showcasing his incredible talent by scoring a century of 103 runs in a mere 65 balls. With this outstanding victory the Punjab Kings have 12 points and are still in the running for a playoff position. Alongside them LSG with 13 points and Rajasthan Royals with 12 points both have a chance to qualify. The final four teams that will proceed to the IPL playoffs will be decided in large part by the results of each team's final two matches.
Prabhsimran's 103 was enough for PBKS to win. If Prabhsimran had not scored 103 off 65 balls, the team's total would have been 130. The second highest run after his 103 was Sam Curran (20). It goes without saying that his collection alone was able to bring victory for Punjab Kings.
On the other hand, Salt (21) scored the second highest runs for Delhi Capitals after David Warner (54). However, there was a lot of pressure on Delhi Capitals' batting and they lost 6 wickets for the team's 88 runs. In this case, PBKS's chances of making it to the knockout stage remained intact.
After a long period of time David Warner's bat added some runs, but Delhi Capitals could not win that match. However to be appreciated
Prabhsimran who is the only one who deserves praise for the entire team's victory. Delhi Capitals David Warner and Philip Salt's good Partnership. The victory was a matter of time at the time but suddenly the fall of two batsmen of the top Oder had an impact on the whole team. At the end, the team was defeated by Punjab Kings by 31 runs. Punjab Kings has been able to capture the 6th place in the points table
by winning this match.
That's true, after a long David Warner have touched 200 strike rate. The whole credit goes to Prabhsimran for his scoring of 103 runs which made Punjab Kings won the match and keep the chance of qualifying for the playoff. Delhi Capitals have got good batting order, but they weren't performing good. Even in its previous match Delhi Capitals lost the match unable to reach the target of 167 against CSK. However I feel this to be an unlucky season for Delhi Capitals as the team lost its matches very closely.
