Sanju Samson is the key batsman in Delhi Daredevils's young middle order, while Kings XI Punjab will once again count on its skipper Glenn Maxwell.

Sanju Sampson showed in Delhi Daredevils's last game why he is one of the most exciting talents in the Indian Premier League (IPL), he scored the 2017 season's first century and helped Delhi to a comprehensive win.

With Quinton de Kock and JP Duminy missing, he is Delhi's most solid batsman in a rather young middle order. He will have to play the maximum overs if Delhi is to post or chase any big total.

Kings XI Punjab will be looking to get him early and dent Delhi's confidence.

For Punjab, its the skipper Glenn Maxwell, who needs to click with the bat and take responsibility of the team. With Davild Miller struggling to find form, Maxwell's role becomes all the more crucial. These two players will certainly hold the key in this derby of the North!
