Best match in the Delhi Capitals vs Kolkata Knight Riders head-to-head
The match at the Arun Jaitley Stadium was an absolute thriller after the game went into the Super Over. Prithvi Shaw won the Player of the Match award, although he missed out on scoring his maiden hundred in the IPL.
Here is a look at how the match unfolded:
After being put in to bat first, the Knights set the Capitals a target of 186. Andre Russell was KKR’s star performer after he raced to 62 off 28 balls with four fours and as many as six sixes. Dinesh Karthik also chipped in with a handy knock of 50 off 36.
Karthik and Russell helped KKR make a comeback after the team was reduced to 61 for five in 9.1 overs. The duo put on 95 runs for the sixth wicket off 52 balls.
The Capitals were cruising at one stage, but KKR clawed their way back to take the match into the Super Over. Shaw scored 99 runs off 55 balls with 12 fours and three sixes. He got out in the penultimate over after which Delhi somehow failed to win in the stipulated 20 overs.
Prasidh Krishna bowled for KKR in the Super Over and conceded only 10 runs. He also picked up the wicket of Shreyas Iyer after being hit for a four.
With KKR being asked to chase 11, Andre Russell started with a four off Kagiso Rabada. But Rabada made a stupendous comeback by bowling a dot ball.
In the very next delivery, the speedster castled Russell and the dismissal almost sealed the fate of the match. Karthik and Robin Uthappa thew their bats around for the remaining three balls, but to no avail.
