Kuldeep reverses again .. Rana defends Kolkata .. Three wickets down in last over

The Kolkata Knight Riders collapsed to the onslaught of Delhi bowlers. With the exception of captain Shreyas Iyer and Nitish Rana, KKR were all out for 146 in 20 overs for the loss of 9 wickets. Kuldeep, who took four wickets in the last match against KKR in this IPL, is fortunate to have taken four wickets in this match as well. Delhi captain Rishabh Pant, who won the toss and elected to bowl, opted to bowl. Kolkata openers Aaron Finch and Venkatesh Iyer failed miserably in the match. When Finch was out for 3, Venkatesh Iyer made just 6 off 12 balls and made his way to the pavilion. Shreyas Iyer, who came into the crease in the first down, made 42 off 37 balls with four fours and was caught by the keeper in the Kuldeep bowling. Sunil Narine and Andre Russell were both ducked and left the fans in deep despair. Nitish Rana consistently excelled as the hitters along with the top order also made their way to the pavilion immediately. Nitish Rana scored 34 off 34 balls with 3 fours and 4 sixes. Rinku Singh scored 23 off 16 balls with three fours in the final over. Mustafizur Nitish Rana, who bowled in the last over, along with Rinku Singh, took just two runs for the Southee wicket.

The last five overs
Nitish Rana and Rinku Singh together hit the scoreboard with boundaries in the last five overs. Kolkata scored an honorable first score with a run rate of not less than ten from the 16th over. 12 runs in the 16th over. 17 in the 17th over, 10 in the 18th over, 16 in the 19th over and only two runs with three wickets in the 20th and 20th overs. Delhi lost three wickets in the last five overs and scored 57 runs.

Kuldeep flipped
Kuldeep Yadav once again shined on Kolkata. Kuldeep Yadav, who once did magic with the ball against Kolkata in IPL 2022, also beat KKR with a superb bowling in today’s match. Sunil Narine, Andre Russell and Indrajith led the pavilion with captain Shreyas Iyer. Sending Sunil Narine and Andre Russell as a duckout is a good thing for Delhi. Kuldeep Yadav, who bowled three overs, gave up just 14 runs and took 4 wickets.
