From there on, the hosts could only manage 29 runs more with Mandeep Singh&#39;s unbeaten 21-ball cameo of 29 helping them to go past the 160-run mark.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Mandeep hit a four and a six in the last two balls off Kagiso Rabada (2\/32) who was excellent otherwise.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Sarfaraz Khan (39; 29b, 4x6) gave Miller good company as the pair stitched together 62 runs for the fourth wicket. Besides Rabada, Chris Morris (3\/30) was simply fantastic, bowling a probing line along with Sandeep Lamichhane (2\/27) who kept it tight at the start.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Punjab lost K.L. Rahul (15) early. After hitting two fours and a six, the World Cup hopeful flattered to deceive by getting trapped in front off Morris, a decision the right-hander chose to review unsuccessfully.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Sam Curran -- replacing Chris Gayle -- did not face a ball until the third over but once he did, the England all-rounder hit Avesh Khan for three fours in four balls.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The 20-year old southpaw looked to continue the fireworks by smacking Lamichhane for a six down the ground in the fourth over but the Nepal leggie had the last laugh, getting him out leg before with a faster delivery.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Mayank Agarwal (6) was run out just after the Powerplay with the team in a spot of bother at 58\/2.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Sarfaraz and Miller then joined hands to steady the ship.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Sarfaraz, who has been impressive this season, played some elegant orthodox strokes and then topped it with a dinky scoop over the wicketkeeper off Avesh Khan before edging Lamichhane to Pant behind the stumps in the 14th over.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Once the partnerhip was broken, Punjab never really got going with Miller also getting foxed by a Morris off-cutter that the South African top-edged in the air only for Pant to complete the catch.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Rabada then got rid of Hardus Viljoen (1) while Morris sent skipper Ravichandran Ashwin (3) back in the hut.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Murugan Ashwin was also removed by Rabada while Mohammed Shami was run out.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Brief scores: Kings XI Punjab 166\/9 in 20 overs (David Miller 43, Sarfaraz Khan 39; Chris Morris 3\/30) vs Delhi Capitals<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n",
