Punjab Kings Won by 6 Wickets

DC vs PBKS

Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi | Saturday, April 25, 2026

If you were tracking the IPL live score today or checking the today IPL score, this match turned into one of the most unbelievable chases in IPL history — a game where even 264 runs were not enough.

Delhi Capitals posted a massive 264/2 in 20 overs, a total that looked completely out of reach. The innings was nothing short of dominant — explosive powerplay, complete control in the middle overs, and brutal finishing at the death. It was the kind of score that wins matches 99 out of 100 times.

But Punjab Kings had other plans.

From the very first over, PBKS came out with fearless intent. There was no sign of pressure, no hesitation — just pure attacking cricket. The openers ensured a flying start, taking advantage of field restrictions and keeping the required run rate under control.

What stood out in the chase was consistency.

PBKS didn’t rely on one big over — they kept scoring at a high rate throughout. The middle overs, which usually decide such chases, were handled brilliantly. Instead of slowing down, PBKS rotated strike smartly and picked the right moments to attack.

As the innings progressed, Delhi Capitals started losing control. Their bowlers couldn’t maintain discipline, and most importantly, they failed to break partnerships. Every time a wicket fell, another batter stepped in and continued the momentum.

The turning point came when PBKS maintained their scoring rate even after losing wickets — a sign of a confident and well-planned chase.

In the death overs, Punjab Kings showed complete composure. With wickets in hand and momentum on their side, they chased down the target at 265/4 in 18.5 overs, completing one of the greatest run chases ever seen in IPL.
