Focus on Rishabh Pant’s Comeback and Shikhar Dhawan’s Leadership
All eyes will be on Rishabh Pant as he returns to the IPL arena after a hiatus since 2022, following a recovery from a car accident. Pant’s presence adds fervor to the match, with fans eager to witness his performance. On the other side, Shikhar Dhawan leads the charge for PBKS, aiming to steer his team to victory after a prolonged break from competitive cricket.
Arshdeep Singh Aims for PBKS’ Wicket-Taking Record
In the forthcoming clash, all attention will be on Arshdeep Singh, the talented left-arm pacer for PBKS. Singh stands on the cusp of history, poised to become the franchise’s fourth-highest wicket-taker if he secures two dismissals against DC. With 57 wickets to his credit, Singh eyes a significant milestone in PBKS’s bowling legacy, trailing closely behind Mohammed Shami’s record of 58 scalps.
David Warner Eyes Boundary Milestone in IPL
David Warner, the seasoned campaigner, is on the brink of etching his name in the annals of IPL history. With 646 fours to his credit, Warner aims to join an elite club by hitting his 650th boundary in the league. The Australian batsman’s consistency has been pivotal for DC, and achieving this feat will underscore his prowess as one of IPL’s premier run-scorers.
Shikhar Dhawan Poised to Rewrite Half-Century Record
As the IPL 2024 season kicks off, Shikhar Dhawan eyes a significant milestone in his illustrious career.
