DC vs PBKS Probable Best Performers
Probable best batter
Liam Livingstone:
The explosive English batter is looking in fine form after his return from a much-maligned injury in IPL 2023. Delhi will have to get rid of the Englishman if they wish to topple the visitors in their upcoming match as Livingstone is capable of turning the outlook of the match in just a few deliveries.
Probable best bowler
Mitchell Marsh:
Delhi Capitals would not have expected prolific numbers from Mitchell Marsh in the wickets column, but they will take it nonetheless. The Aussie all-rounder has scalped nine wickets in his last three matches and has been performing like a man possessed in the latter half of the tournament.
