Delhi Capitals (DC) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) locked horns in the 16th match of IPL 2024 at Dr Y.S.Rajashekar Reddy ACA-VDCA International Cricket Stadium, Visakhapatnam. After winning the toss, KKR decided to bat first.
Power-hitter Sunil Narine demolished the bowling attack of Delhi Capitals and smashed 85 off 39 balls. Power hitters Andre Russell (41), Rinku Singh (26) and youngster Angkrish Raghuvanshi (54) showed off their skills against DC bowlers to help KKR post a massive total, but captain Shreyas Iyer struggled for Kolkata. Kolkata finished with 272-7 in 20 overs, but it took a pinpoint yorker from Ishant Sharma to stop Russellmania from going bonkers in the last over. KKR have amassed the second-highest total in IPL history thanks to Russell and Rinku.
