KKR vs DC Live Score: Great finish from Axar and Shardul

 

Pat Cummins comes into the attack

 

Ball 1  Four!! Hit straight down the ground by Shardul Thakur for four runs 

 

Ball 2  Two runs off the yorker that was dug out by Thakur here 

 

Ball 3  Single down the ground  

 

Ball 4  Length ball, slashed hard to deep covers and two runs taken, Axar will retain the strike  

 

Ball 5  Comes around the wicket does Cummins and bowls it into the wicket which is played to deep mid-wicket for a single 

 

Ball 6  Six!! WHAT a finish from Shardul Thakur as he hits this length ball from Cummins to a six down to deep mid-wicket and Delhi will finish at 215/5. 

 

Reaching 215 didn't seem like a possibility after five tight overs from the 14-18 but getting 40 off the last two made sure that they did get there eventually. 

 

Axar remained unbeaten on 22 off 14 and Shardul on 29 off 11 balls 

 

Delhi Capitals 215/5 after 20 overs

 

5:20 PM

KKR vs DC Live Score: 23 off the Umesh over

 

Umesh Yadav comes into the attack

 

Ball 1  Six!! Wow!! What was that as Shardul Thakur picks that one and hits this for a six like he was playing in his gully and not in a stadium against Umesh yadav 

 

Ball 2  Dot ball. Well bowled wide yorker 

 

Ball 3  Six!! Smoked this!! Wow.. once again misses the yorker just by an inch and he has hit that over the mid-off boundary for a six 

 

Ball 4  Single down to long-on and Axar will be on strike now  

 

Ball 5  Six!! This is poor bowling from Umesh. You can’t bowl length to batters in the slog overs and he has paid for it as Axar hits the length ball straight down the ground for a six and now the 200 looks very much possible with 19 from this over so far. 

 

Ball 6  Four!! Instead of bowling slower bouncers or yorkers, Umesh once again goes Length outside off and Axar slashes him for a four down to covers . 23 runs come off this over 

 

Delhi Capitals 199/5 after 19 overs

 

5:13 PM

KKR vs DC Live Score: Sarfaraz is being treated badly here by management

 

Pat Cummins comes into the attack

 

Ball 1  In the air… and falls just short of the man at the cover and Shardul survives. But this has been very poor from Delhi Capitals management as they have held back Sarfaraz Khan for god knows what while the likes of Lalit Yadav, Axar Patel and even Shardul Thakur have come head of him which is pathetic given the talent that Sarfaraz possesses. Not at all well done 

 

Ball 2  Dot ball as it is played straight to the bowler Cummins who fields well 

 

Ball 3  Four!! Bouncer and pulled this one bisecting the deep fine leg and deep square leg and it goes for four between them. WELL DONE Axar

 

Ball 4  Single down the leg as Billings fields it 

 

Ball 5  Single once again. This time the slower ball hit down the ground to long-on by Shardul Thakur. Once again it is pathetic seeing Srafraz make those faces sitting in the dug out at a time here he should have been i the middle and playing his cute little innovative shots 

 

Ball 6   Single to finish the over 

 

Delhi Capitals 176/5 after 18 overs

5:05 PM

KKR vs DC Live Score: Umesh gets Warner

 

Umesh Yadav comes into the attack

 

Ball 1  Single off the first ball would mean that Warner would be back on strike 

 

Ball 2  Well… that was not given wide by the umpire… you know why? Because it was a no-ball and it is free-hit time 

 

Ball 2  Brilliant yorker on the stumps from Yadav to go for just one run on the free hit 

 

Ball 3  Dropped!! Axar Patel has been dropped here by Sam Billings. it was a Straiughforward catch and Umesh Yadav has been denied a wicket here 

 

Ball 4  Wicket!! Well Umesh would have Warner, if not Axar as Warner has hit this straight to Ajinkya Rahane at deep square leg 

 

Delhi Capitals 166/5 after 16.4 overs

 

5:00 PM

KKR vs DC Live Score: Fine spell from Sunil comes to an end

 

Sunil Narine comes into the attack

 

Ball 1  Wicket!! Rinku Singh takes a great catch here as Powell slogged this one very high in the air and Rinku, the substitute fielder, running in from deep fine leg, caught the ball at the deep square leg and that would be the end of Rovman Powell, who fails again. And a Time Out has been called here as Delhi lose their fourth and Narine has his second 

 

Ball 2  Dot ball as Axcar gets to a forward defence position 

 

Ball 3  Dot again. Excellent bowing from Narine all Axar could do is play straight back to the bowler 

 

Ball 4  Single to deep square leg and Axar is off the mark

 

Ball 5  Dot. This one comes back in Warner could not play it well 

 

Ball 6  Dot. Makes room, but once again, he is unable to fine the room and a fine spell from Sunil Narine comes to an end. 4 overs 2-22. What a spell indeed  

 

Delhi Capitals 162/4 after 16 overs

Ball 1  Wicket!! Rinku Singh takes a great catch here as Powell slogged this one very high in the air and Rinku, the substitute fielder, running in from deep fine leg, caught the ball at the deep square leg and that would be the end of Rovman Powell, who fails again.

KKR vs DC Live Score: Narine Gets Lalit, Delhi lose its third

 

Andre Russell comes into the attack

 

Ball 1  Single to long-off

 

Ball 2  And yet another single as the would open the account of Lalit Yadav 

 

Ball 3  Single again and Warner would get off strike

 

Ball 4  Dot ball as Lalit Yadav is unable to read Narne either off the hand or off the pitch 

 

Ball 5  Wicket!! When you can’t read a bowler off the pitch or hand, you go for the sweep and Lalit went for it as well and missed a straighter one which hit him on the pads and the umpire had no hesitation in raising the fingers and that would be out and wicket number three falls for Delhi 

 

Delhi Capitals 151/3 after 13.5 overs

 

4:43 PM

KKR vs DC Live Score: Fifty for Warner, Pant out cheaply

 

Andre Russell comes into the attack

 

Ball 1  Single to deep fine leg

 

Ball 2  Six!! And that would fifty for David Warner as he hit the length ball straight down the ground and Venaketsh Iyer on the boundary ropes tried his best to get as close to the ball as possible and try and catch it, but it just went over him. That would be the first Fifty of this season for Warner

 

Ball 3  Falls short of the fielder as that was in the air and the fielder almost lost the ball in the air and Dre Russ is not one bit happy as the cameras show Venkatesh Grimacing with pain on the long-on boundary where he was injured off the last ball

 

Ball 4  Two rusn taken. That’s good running from Pant and Warner as the former plays this to deep mid-wicket and by the time the fielder reached the ball, the two of them took tow runs

 

Ball 5  Wicket!! Finally, the wicket as Pant tries to pull or play a forehand drive, but the ball was too high and all he managed to do was hit it in the air and Umesh Yadav caught it 

 

Delhi Capitals 148/2 after 12.5 overs

 

4:35 PM

KKR vs DC Live Score: Pant hits Cummins for a six

 

Pat Cummins comes into the attack

Ball 1  Single to deep fine leg

Ball 4 Single to deep fine leg 

Ball 5 And now yet another single, this time around played to long-oin

Ball 6 WIDE

Ball 6 Reloading this and Pant has hit this out of here for a six and the extra ball has come back to haunt Cummins

4:29 PM

KKR vs DC Live Score: Chakaravarthy bowels two no-balls in a row

 

Varun Chakaravarthy has bowled two no-balls in a row and he has now leaked 24 runs in the over, the most expensive over in the innings so far as he was taken to the cleaners by David Warner 

 

4:19 PM

LIVE KKR vs DC: Chakaravarthy gets the breakthrough, Shaw goes after fifty

4:13 PM

KKR vs DC Live Updates: Fifty from Prithvi Shaw

 

So Shreyas Iyer here has summoned all his bowling resources as he has now called upon Venkatesh Iyer in only the eighth over to try and get him a wicket. This is really impulsive from Shreyas given that he could have gone back to his strike bowlers and tried getting worse from them because Prithvi Shaw has cracked this for four. 

 

And he goes again, now two fours in a row and he would take a single to bring up his second fifty in a row and this has taken only 27 balls 

 

4:08 PM

KKR vs DC Live Score: Russell to the rescue!!

 

Andre Russell has rescued the Kolkata Knight Riders many a time with the bat in hand, but he has been tasked by his skipper Shreyas Iyer to bail him out and get him a wicket as the Capitals have gone past 70 in only the seventh over with all 10 wickets intact. 

 

4:04 PM

KKR vs DC Live: Capitals on the march, score 68 in the Powerplay

This has been an amazing Powerplay for the Capitals, as they have marched to 689 without losing any wicket and even as Shreyas brought in his spinners, there has been no reprieve from the Delhi duo of Warner and Prithvi as they keep the boundaries ticking and if these two go on., Delhi might be looking for a total well beyond 200 runs. 

 

Prithvi 36 off 20 balls

Warner 27 off 16 balls

DC 68/0 in 06 Overs
