Punjab Kings (PBKS) will be taking on Delhi Capitals (DC) in the second match of the Indian Premier League 2024 on March 23. It will be the first day game of the season. In the 17th edition of the league, CSK took on RCB in the inaugural match. The match is set to take place at the newly built Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in Mullanpur.
It will be special for DC, as Rishabh Pant will be back in action for the first time since December 2022. It is interesting to see how he performs, given the fact that he sustained some serious injuries. Pant is also named the captain of DC, which is an interesting move. PBKS, on the other hand, is led by Shikhar Dhawan, who has not been in action at the highest level for a long time. He last played a match for India in 2022.
Both teams have some of the best players in the world. DC has the likes of David Warner, Mitchell Marsh, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Pant, Anrich Nortje, Ishant Sharma, and so on. PBKS has the likes of Liam Livingstone, Dhawan, Sam Curran, Jitesh Sharma, Nathan Ellis, Harshal Patel, Jonny Bairstow, Sikandar Raza, Arshdeep Singh, Kagiso Rabada, and so on.

Player Picks
Shikhar Dhawan PBKS | BAT
Shikhar Dhawan has not been in action for a long time. IPL is the only tournament where he is a regular for his team. Hence, the experienced player would be looking forward to the league and score some runs.
David Warner DC | BAT
David Warner recently announced retirement from Tests and ODIs. The star batter also claimed the series against West Indies to be his last at home in T20Is. With not much pressure, he could be dangerous in the league.
Mitchell Marsh DC | ALL
Mitchell Marsh was recently announced the captain of Australia for the T20 World Cup 2024. He will be on a mission to lead his team in the major tournament. To be in good form before the tournament, IPL plays a key role for him.
Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team
Abishek Porel
DC | BAT
Abhishek Porel is a talented player. He is arguably one of the finest wicket keepers in India at the moment. However, his batting skills are not up to the mark. As DC has Tristan Stubbs and Shai Hope in their lineup, Porel might not be in the XI.
Jonny Bairstow
PBKS | WK
Jonny Bairstow is a world class performer. However, PBKS is likely to go with the overseas combination of Liam Livingstone, Sikandar Raza, Sam Curran, and Kagiso Rabada. Hence, Bairstow might not make it to the side.
