Kotla par last match mein 419 runs bane the, jahan GT ne last ball par 1 run defend kiya, aur David Miller ka single refuse karna bada talking point raha. ESPN bolta hai ki yeh game similar deck par hoga, aur us match ke baad fortnight guzarne se surface par enough sheen bachi hui hai, jo ek aur high-scoring game produce kar sakti hai.

Head-to-Head

DC ne PBKS ke vs last 3 head-to-head matches mein se 2 jeete hain, including 2025-05-24 aur 2023-05-17 ki wins.
