It was young Sameer Rizvi who stole the spotlight with an unbeaten 50 off just 24 balls, finishing the match with a towering six off Marcus Stoinis.
Chasing 207, Delhi were off to a flyer thanks to KL Rahul (35 off 21) and Faf du Plessis (23 off 15), who added 55 runs in the powerplay.
Despite both openers falling in quick succession, Karun Nair (44 off 27) and Sediqullah Atal (22) steadied the innings. Nair fell just short of a half-century, but it was his partnership with Rizvi that laid the platform.
Tristan Stubbs (18) chipped in, but Rizvi held his nerve and powered DC home with a composed and explosive finish.
Earlier, PBKS posted 206/8 after being asked to bat. After the early dismissal of Priyansh Arya, Prabhsimran Singh (28) and Josh Inglis (32 off 12) gave them momentum.
Captain Shreyas Iyer anchored the innings with a 34-ball 53, before Marcus Stoinis provided the late fireworks with an unbeaten 44 off just 16 deliveries.
DC’s Mustafizur Rahman led the bowling attack with 3/33, while Kuldeep Yadav and Vipraj Nigam chipped in with two wickets each.
Despite the win, DC finish the season at fifth place with 15 points, missing out on the playoffs. PBKS, now stuck at 17 points, risk being overtaken in the top-two race, making their final league clash against Mumbai 온라인카지노s a virtual knockout.
