IPL 2022 Points Table, Orange Cap and Purple Cap: Rabada and Kuldeep remain in top five - Updated after Match 64 

The 64th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 took place between the Delhi Capitals (DC) and the Punjab Kings (PBKS) on Monday, May 16. The Rishabh Pant-led side secured a crucial 17-run win at the DY Patil Stadium in Mumbai.

PBKS chose to bowl first after winning the toss. They had to endure an early onslaught by makeshift opener Sarfaraz Khan (32 of 16) after dismissing David Warner for a golden duck. Mitchell Marsh (63 of 48) once again anchored the innings on a sluggish, dry surface. Solid death bowling by Arshdeep Singh brought DC to a first-innings total of 159-7.

Despite a solid start provided by Jonny Bairstow, PBKS crumbled in the run chase and were even reduced to 82-7 at one stage. A 44-run knock by Jitesh Sharma gave the chasing side some hope. However, it was all in vain as DC coasted to a 17-run win.
