Kolkata Knight Riders: Delhi Capitals rode on KL Rahul’s fluent 30-ball 60 and late fireworks from David Miller, who smashed a 19-ball 28, to post 203/5, their highest total at Eden Gardens, in their 20 overs against Kolkata Knight Riders on Sunday.
It was an innings from DC where everyone chipped in with cameos to take the side past 200-mark, with Rahul smashing clean boundaries at a strike-rate of 200 being the standout knock. DC will now look to defend the total and sign off from the competition on a high. For KKR, Saurabh Dubey was the standout bowler with 2-28 in his four overs.
Inserted into batting first, Rahul and Abishek Porel gave DC a brisk start. Porel cracked successive boundaries off Anukul Roy in the opening over and added more fours off Kartik Tyagi, while Rahul lifted Cameron Green for a six and four in the third over. But Porel fell for 22 in the fourth over after edging Dubey behind to the keeper.
