KKR, on the other hand, pulverized the Delhi Capitals in their last encounter with sharp performances in bowling and batting. The twice former winners at the tournament began by outclassing DC batters courtesy of some great bowling by Varun Chakravarthy who scalped three wickets that helped the team restrict their opponents to 153 runs. The chase was inclined in KKR’s interest from the very beginning as opener Phil Salt smashed 68 runs off 33 balls to propel his team to victory and climb at no.2 in the points table.
