IPL 2024: PBKS vs DC, Match 2- Top three player battles to watch out for
The first doubleheader weekend is set to witness a mega clash at the Mullanpur stadium.
2. Shikhar Dhawan vs Kuldeep Yadav
Out of favour Indian batter Shikhar Dhawan has just one chance to reignite fading hopes of final Indian recall. The 38-year-old has been one of India’s best performers in ICC tournaments and the T20 World Cup could be a perfect chance for a swansong. Kuldeep Yadav though might have different ideas as the left-arm wrist spinner has been having a golden run with the ball.
Shikhar Dhawan has traditionally swung against the spinners early in his innings. Kuldeep Yadav can bowl the flatter at a good speed to either get Dhawan out of LBW or bowled through the gate. Last year the Punjab Kings veteran opener scored 373 runs for his side. Kuldeep Yadav had a below-par season picking just 10 wickets from 14 games during IPL 2023.
