Pune Warriors and Delhi Daredevils are at opposite ends of the IPL 2011 table. Pune are the only side yet to lose a game, while Delhi are the only ones yet to register a win. Virender Sehwag's men will be desperate for their first points on Sunday, but it won't be easy against what is arguably the most complete Twenty20 outfit in the tournament.
Jesse Ryder and Graeme Smith form a free-spirited opening combination for Pune, while Yuvraj Singh and Robin Uthappa are probably the most dangerous Indian middle-order batsmen in this format. But Pune's real strength lies in the lesser-knows who complete the side. Mithun Manhas and Mohnish Mishra are not big names, but have played nerveless hands under pressure. Alfonso Thomas, Wayne Parnell and Shrikant Wagh have been dangerous with the new ball, stunning their opponents with early wickets. Can Delhi's reputed top order tame them?
