IPL 2024 Match 2 PBKS vs DC: Preview
Both – Punjab Kings and Delhi Capitals did not have the best 2023 season of the IPL. While the Kings finished eighth, the Capitals finished ninth.
PBKS will be looking for a turn-around season under captain Shikhar Dhawan, who missed a lot of the 2023 season due to injury. The team will also be playing in a new home stadium. On the other hand, DC will see their captain Rishabh Pant return to cricket after a 15-month absence following a gruesome car crash in December 2023.
Both teams have also tried to fix their squads in the mini-auction for this season, but still have gaping holes in their squads.

IPL 2024 PBKS vs DC Pitch Report
We have only seen domestic cricket in this stadium due to it being built in 2021. From what was seen here during the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, the pitch here seems to be more bowler-friendly.
While fast and spin bowlers enjoy regular wickets here, it is the spinners who benefit more, especially in the second innings because the pitch gets slower as the match goes on.
