Bottom-placed DC led by David Warner will aim to bounce back and end the season on a high, while playoff hopefuls PBKS led by Shikhar Dhawan will look to end a two-match losing streak as they eye a top four finish.
DC, who opened their campaign with five successive defeats, had responded with four wins in five matches to get into playoff contention. But all those hopes ended following their defeat to Chennai Super Kings in the most recent fixture.
PBKS, on the other hand, opened their season with back-to-back wins over Kolkata Knight Riders and Rajasthan Royals, but suffered two successive losses before going on mixed run of three wins and four defeats in the last 7 matches with their most recent result being a defeat to KKR.
The two sides will clash for the first time this season at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi, where several players including DC pacer Ishant Sharma and PBKS batter Bhanuka Rajapaksa, have a chance to reach milestones or break records.
