With the win, Punjab Kings stay unbeaten in IPL 2026.

Earlier, KL Rahul hit a mind-boggling 152 not out as Delhi Capitals posted a mammoth total of 264 for 2 after opting to bat first. Rahul scored his 152 not out off 67 balls, with the help of 16 fours and nine sixes. This turned out to be the highest score by an Indian batter in IPL history. Overall, Rahul's knock ranks third, behind Chris Gayle's 175 not out and Brendon McCullum's 158.

Nitish Rana also contributed to DC's total with 91 off 44 balls. His innings was laced with 11 fours and four sixes. He and Rahul stitched a 220-run partnership off 95 balls for the second wicket.

While Delhi seemed to be on top at the end of the first innings, a resolute Punjab Kings surprised them with a terrific counter-attack. Prabhsimran and Priyansh forged a 126-run stand in just 6.5 overs to lay the platform. Iyer capitalised on the superb start and took PBKS home.
