Delhi Capitals Innings

KKR dominated the game from start to end. Narine’s aggressive batting, Raghuvanshi’s elegant innings, and quick contributions from Russell and Rinku Singh propelled KKR to their highest-ever total.

It was a tough task for Delhi Capitals from the start, as they struggled during the powerplay, losing four early wickets. Rishabh Pant and Stubbs provided some resistance with their fluent stroke-making, forging a crucial 93-run partnership. Both batters scored a half-century.

However, once that partnership was broken, DC’s batting line-up crumbled under pressure. DC scored a total of 166/10 within 17.2 overs.

Starc claimed his first two wickets of IPL 2024, Arora impressed with a three-wicket haul, and Chakravarthy also secured three wickets.

DC’s failure to make effective use of the Decision Review System (DRS) added to their woes, with one key dismissal being that of Narine.
