Delhi Capitals and Punjab Kings will play the 32nd match of IPL 2022 on Wednesday. Delhi haven’t had the best of starts so far with just 2 wins in 5 games, slipping to a 16-run loss against Bangalore in their last match. They are also hit by several Covid cases and will be missing the services of Mitchell Marsh for this match. On the other hand, Punjab Kings have won 3 matches and lost as many in 6 matches so far and find themselves 7th in the points table. They missed the services of skipper Mayank in the last game and will be hoping that he would make a comeback in this game.

Here are 3 players you can avoid in your fantasy teams for the DC vs PBKS game:

1. Rovman Powell

He has struggled throughout the season, scoring 31 runs in 5 matches at an average of 6 and it is not going to get any easier in this match against the likes of Punjab bowlers. Hence, it is better to avoid him and look at the alternatives in the batting section.

2. Shahrukh Khan

Shahrukh Khan has had very limited opportunities with the bat and he has not been able to make the most of it. In this edition, he has scored 86 runs in 6 matches at an average of 17. With him batting lower down the order it once again makes him vulnerable from a fantasy point of view. So you may ignore him for this match.

3. Vaibhav Arora

He has been very good with the new ball but bowls out 3 of his overs most of the times. He will be up against a solid top order of Delhi. Hence, he might not get much wickets. This season, after the impressive debut against CSK where he got 2 wickets, he has not looked much threatening and has picked up only 1 wicket in the last 3 matches. Look at other options from the bowlers and avoid him.
