Delhi Capitals rattled Kolkata Knight Riders to add yet another win to their tally at Narendra Modi Stadium on Thursday.

In the end, Russell made 45* from 27 to take the team to 154. Lalit Yadav was the pick of the bowlers, had 2 wickets while giving away just 13.
In return, Shaw batted as if he was playing at some other surface, had six fours in Mavi’s over. If that wasn’t enough, he kept flying and had 11 fours and 3 sixes to his 82 from 41.
On the other side, Dhawan was simply a spectator to Shaw’s performance and he had 46 from 47.
When the team needed only 9, Shaw miscued one to get out while Pant fell too after making 16.
In the end, the team finished off with ease and reached the target within 17 overs.
The pick of the bowlers for KKR was Cummins who grabbed all the three wickets.
With this win, DC stays at number two in the points table, has 5 wins from 7 matches now. RCB also has 5 wins from 6 matches but their net run rate is lower than DC.
