IPL 2015 - Kings XI Punjab vs Delhi Daredevils: Venue, date and predicted line-ups

Yuvraj Singh and Mitchell Johnson are all set to renew their rivalry

Both teams begin tonight’s contest in need of a win, but the Delhi Daredevils need it more at a time when the word ‘victory’ has been missing from their cupboard for quite a while now. Match number 10 of the PEPSI IPL 2015 will also see India’s Yuvraj Singh locking horns with Australia’s Mitchell Johnson. Yuvi would desperately want to get one over Johnson as he was the one who troubled him the most when he donned the ODI jersey for India in India the last time in 2013.

The match will be played at Pune, which is now the second home for Kings XI Punjab. Having lost to Rajasthan in the previous game they played here, they would now want to pile on more misery on Delhi.
