Delhi Capitals vs Punjab Kings
These two teams have been the most underperforming sides of the Indian T20 Premier League. Considering all the seasons in mind, they both have a win percentage of around 45%, with zero season-winning trophies to their name in the past 12 years. Owing to their poor performance and inconsistency, dc vs pbks matches are always unpredictable.
If we look at dc vs kxip head to head matches, Punjab Kings have a higher share of victories, but the gap between them isn’t significant.

Punjab Kings might be seeing Mayank Agarwal as their new skipper in IPL 2022. He did take up that role once in the last season. Agarwal had scored a total of 441 runs in 12 matches at an average of 4.09 in IPL 2021.
They also retained their pacer Arshdeep Singh who has 30 wickets to his name in 23 IPL games that he has played in 3 seasons.
Both Delhi and Punjab have been on the underperforming side, which makes the clash between the two more exciting. They have an almost equal winning percentage in their head-to-head games.
In 2020, their opening match of the season was a thriller. The game went to a Super Over, with Delhi Capitals winning that in the end.
With both sides retaining some of their big players, these two teams promise more nail-biting clashes in the coming season.
IPL 2022 will also see two new franchises in the season, Ahmedabad and Lucknow. This will make the whole auction and the league way more interesting. So get ready for all the action and download the
