PBKS vs DC Key Players
Rishabh Pant
Rishabh Pant returns. After a life-threatening incident he is finally back out in the playing field. His bat swing in practice appeared to be pretty solid and the crowd will eagerly be waiting for his return after a massive gap.
Shikhar Dhawan
Like Rishabh Pant, Shikhar Dhawan comes back after a significant gap. He last played professional cricket in the previous season and has been inactive since. A lot went on personally in the interim and Shikhar Dhawan, far from a national comeback will be eager to come out and enjoy the time he has left on the cricket field.

PBKS vs DC, Battles to Watch
Kagiso Rabada vs David Warner: David Warner has always had his struggles against certain fast bowlers. While Jofra Archer and Stuart Broad are two of them, Kagiso Rabada is another bowler who often finds David Warner under some discomfort. A good spell up front from Rabada could be the decider with Warner likely to single Rabada out as a bowler to watch.
PBKS vs DC Match Tips
PBKS generally start well in the IPL. DC though has some nice players in their ranks and with Pant returning they could be favorites coming in.
