DC vs KKR
Ajinkya Rahane was forced to let Sunil Narine take charge in place of him due to an illness on Ajinkya Rahane’s part and it paid dividends as Narine tore through Delhi’s top order with ease, leading KKR to an IPL match win at Arun Jaitley Stadium by 14 runs.
Narine picked up key wickets of Faf du Plessis, Axar Patel and Tristan Stubbs while Varun Chakravarthy’s double strike ensured DC’s defeat as they fell short at 190/9 after Vipraj Nigam’s fightback effort had secured them victory with scores of 38 and 19 respectively from 22 deliveries of Vipraj Nigam.
Low scoring action at Arun Jaitley Stadium was indicative of Delhi’s slow pitches, yet both teams will look to move further up the table in this matchup.
KKR are looking to end their two-match losing streak and close in on top four, while DC can narrow their deficit. Losses at this venue in three straight games would further jeopardise qualifying for playoffs – they sit fifth while DC are seventh on points table.
