The defeat to Mumbai Indians on Thursday was not the homecoming Delhi Capitals would have wanted.
On Saturday, it gets another chance to bring its campaign back on track against a confident Kings XI Punjab.
The previous meeting between the two sides was the stuff of nightmares for Capitals, who imploded spectacularly, losing seven wickets for 15 runs in the space of 20 balls to go from sure victory to embarrassing defeat.
