IPL 2026: Spinners Apply The Choke As Impressive KKR Restrict DC To 142/8
Kolkata Knight Riders: A commanding spin bowling display helped three-time champions Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) restrict Delhi Capitals to a below-par 142/8 in their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 clash at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi on Friday.
On a pitch which had some dry cracks, KKR’s vaunted spin attack dismantled DC’s batting line-up after they had a bright time in the Power-play, with Pathum Nissanka making a 29-ball fifty. While Anukul Roy stood out by taking 2-31, Sunil Narine (1-17) and Varun Chakaravarthy (0-28) were also miserly in their spells to apply the spin choke on DC.
Such was the effect of the slowdown that from overs 11-16, DC scored just 20 runs for the loss of two wickets and as per CricViz, this is the lowest number of runs scored in this particular phase of the innings in any game in IPL 2026. It took Ashutosh Sharma's late 28-ball 39 to take DC past 140, but the batting issues continued to haunt the hosts, with Kartik Tyagi being excellent in the back end to pick 2-25.
