Punjab Kings have beaten Delhi Capitals by 4 wickets. Brilliant bowling from Arshdeep Singh and Hershel Patel. And a match turning 67 from Sam Curran and flying finishing from Liam Livingstone crashed DC to hand PBKS a thumping win.

Delhi Capitals gave priority to their foreign recruitments. David Warner and Mitchell Marsh opened the innings, while Shai Hope was their number 3 batter. They put their local players at down the order. But in DC's innings against PBKS, local players were the ones who gave them competitive total. Abishek Porel's blitzkrieg 32 off only 10 balls and Axar Patel's 21 off 13 were the highlights of the innings.

Robin Uthappa, the former Indian wk batter took a dig at DC management on not giving opportunities to their local talented cricketers and also lauded Abishek Porel. 

"The problem with DC is that they never try the Indian lads out. He(Porel) would be super impressive in the top order. He will probably be like Sai Sudarshan. You will never know if you never try him." - Uthappa via Jio Cinema.

Delhi Capitals' next assignment is Rajasthan Royals on Thursday (28th March) in Jaipur. DC is currently standing on 9th out of 10 teams.
