While the eyes are pinned on these two teams on the opening day, Delhi Capitals and Punjab Kings will soon hog the limelight on day 2 of the tournament.
Rishabh Pant makes a much-awaited return from a serious car crash and will be leading the Capitals in place of David Warner. For the Punjab Kings, they have a new vice-captain in Jitesh Sharma, while Shikhar Dhawan is roaring to go in his captain’s hat in an attempt to overturn Punjab’s fortunes.
