Commentary
Delhi Capitals kept their playoff hopes alive as they clinched a 17-run win over Punjab Kings at the DY Patil Stadium on Monday.
The win saw Capitals climb to the fourth spot with 14 points, while Punjab remained seventh on the points table.
After being sent into bat, Capitals put up a decent total, riding on Mitch Marsh's half-century. While Marsh top-scored for DC with a solid 63 off 48, Sarfaraz Khan (32 off 16) and Lalit Yadav (24 off 21) contributed with useful knocks to guide Delhi to 159/7.
Needing 160 to win, Jonny Bairstow handed PBKS a strong start with a quickfire 28 off 15, before Anrich Nortje removed the opener to reduce PBKS to 38/1 in 3.5 overs. On a night when Punjab batsman struggled to get going and lost quick wickets, Jitesh Sharma came to Punjab's rescue. But with Punjab seven-wickets down already, there was too much left to do.
Sharma put up Capitals on edge with solid 44 off 34, before Warner took a stunning catch and Shardul picked up his third of the evening to tilt the scales in DC's favour.
For Capitals, Thakur led the attack with a four-wicket haul, while Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav pocketed two each.
This is the first time this season that the Capitals have won two games on the trot.
Shardul Thakur to Rahul Chahar. Full toss, down leg side on the back foot glancing, mis-timed to short fine leg for 1 run, fielded by Ahmed. That brings this game to a close.

Shardul Thakur is adjudged as the Player of the Match for his tremendous performance with the ball. Cheers.

With the tournament reaching its business end and the play-off race heating up, both Capitals and Kings will be desperate to collect two crucial points.
Both sides have been struggling for consistency this season.
The two sides, who are yet to lift their maiden IPL title, will look to outdo each other in a bid to keep their chances alive.
The last time the two sides met this season, Capitals handed Punjab a thrashing nine-wicket win.
Both Rishabh Pant-led Capitals and Mayank Agarwal-led Punjab Kings are yet to string back-to-back wins this season but neither side can afford another defeat in their remaining leagues games.
Probable Playing XI:
Punjab Kings: Mayank Agarwal (captain), Jonny Bairstow, Shikhar Dhawan, Bhanuka Raajpaksa, Liam Livingstone, Jitesh Sharma (wk), Harpreet Brar, Rishi Dhawan, Kagiso Rabada, Rahul Chahar, Ashdeep Singh
Delhi Capitals: Rishabh Pant (Captain/wicket-keeper), Srikar Bharat/Mandeep Singh, David Warner, Mitchell Marsh, Lalit Yadav, Rovman Powell, Axar Patel, Shardul Thakur, Kuldeep Singh, Khaleel Ahmed, Anrich Nortje
