IPL 2025: Match 66, PBKS vs DC Match Prediction – Who will win today’s match between PBKS vs DC?

Punjab Kings (PBKS) and Delhi Capitals (DC) are all set to lock horns once again at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Saturday, May 24, in Match No. 66 of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025.

Last time these two sides met, the game got abandoned due to security reasons amid the India-Pakistan conflict earlier this month. Punjab had raced to 122/1 in 10.1 overs in the clash in Dharamshala. However, they will now have to start from scratch against a deflated Capitals side which got eliminated after a comprehensive defeat to Mumbai Indians in a do-or-die encounter a couple of night back.

PBKS have already qualified for the Playoffs, having secured 17 points from 12 matches. They are currently stationed at No. 3 on the points table, but a win on Saturday will help them climb to the top of the table. Meanwhile, DC have secured 13 points from as many games and would want to finish their campaign on a high.

Sawai Mansingh Stadium Pitch Report:

The Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur has hosted five games in IPL 2025. The average first-innings total has been around 200. Three games have been won by teams batting first, while chasing teams have emerged victorious on a couple of occasions. The new ball could swing around for the first few overs and the opening batters will have to be wary. Once the shine goes away, runs could be scored for fun.

PBKS vs DC Probable Best Performers

Probable Best Batter – Shreyas Iyer

Shreyas Iyer has been in magnificent form in IPL 2025. He has been equally destructive against spinners and pacers. In 12 matches, he has amassed 435 runs at an average of 48.33 and a strike rate of 174.70. The PBKS captain dropped himself down to No. 5 in the last game against the Rajasthan Royals. It will be interesting to see where he bats on Saturday.

Probable best bowler – Arshdeep Singh

Arshdeep Singh had a forgettable outing against the Royals in the last game, conceding 60 runs in his four overs without picking up a wicket. The PBKS seamer tends to go for runs in some matches, but bounces back strongly every time. This season, he has bagged 16 wickets from 12 games at an average of 21.94. He will have a crucial role to play against the Capitals.
