In match 2 of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 Punjab Kings will host Delhi Capitals in the first-ever game at their new home ground – Maharaj Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in Mullanpur, Chanidgarh on Saturday (March 23).
Shikhar Dhawan-led PBKS will look to bounce back after finishing eighth last season, while DC, who welcome back skipper Rishab Pant from a year-long injury absence, will also look to get off to a good start this season, having finished in ninth last season.
