NEW DELHI : Delhi Capitals skipper David Warner fired back at his critics in emphatic style on Thursday by delivering his most convincing knock of this year's Indian Premier League (IPL) to help snap his team's five-match losing streak.
Delhi Capitals registered their first win of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 as they defeated Kolkata Knight Riders by 4 wickets in Delhi on Thursday. These were the first two points for the David Warner-led side after a series of six consecutive losses in the competition. Warner led by example as he slammed another half-century while Ishant Sharma, Andrich Nortje and Kuldeep Yadav took two wickets to bundle out KKR for a score under 130. As a result of the loss, KKR are currently eighth in the table with four points while DC continue to occupy in the last spot with just two points.
Delhi Capitals picked up their first victory of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 against Kolkata Knight Riders at Arun Jaitley Stadium by 4 wickets on Thursday and luck certainly played a crucial role in their victory. Unexpectedly rain intervened and forced the game to kick off late than the usual time. The new conditions took KKR by surprise and DC capitalize on the opportunity that came knocking on their door. DC batters however struggled to chase down the low target as their batting unit once again surfaced as the major problem in their unsuccessful campaign.
Skipper David Warner found his perfect hitting arc after Ishant Sharma rolled back the years but even then Delhi Capitals stuttered badly in a modest chase before beating Kolkata Knight Riders by four wickets on Thursday to stay afloat in this edition of the IPL. With their backs to the wall after five defeats on the trot, the DC bowling line-up collectively came to the party as KKR managed only 127 on a spicy deck which aided both pacers and spinners alike. Warner, DC's best batter this season, was struggling with his strike-rate in earlier games but on Thursday, he smashed 57 off 41 with the target being reached with four balls to spare.
Rain delayed the start of Delhi Capitals' IPL 2023 match against Kolkata Knight Riders on Thursday in Delhi, however, there was enough action to follow once the game started. DC bowlers struck at regular intervals to skittle out KKR for a low total. The match had a special guest in Apple CEO Tim Cook. He is on a visit to India for the opening of Apple's special stores in Mumbai and Delhi. He has been visiting several places and also met with Indian badminton stars including Saina Nehwal and Kidambi Srikanth.
IPL 2023, DC vs KKR Live Updates: Delhi Capitals eye their first victory of the season as they face Kolkata Knight Riders at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Thursday. DC could drop Prithvi Shaw for the game as the batter has performed poorly this season.
Punjab Kings' dependency on skipper Shikhar Dhawan is a major concern and rest of the players will have to take responsibility if they have to emerge as title contenders in the ongoing IPL, said former India spinner Harbhajan Singh. Dhawan has scored bulk of the runs, amassing 233 in four innings with 99 not out being the highest as PBKS managed two wins and two losses under his captaincy so far.
After two back-to-back defeats in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 season, Kolkata Knight Riders are desperate for a win against the winless-Delhi Capitals side. Opening has been an issue for the Knight Riders in the last couple of games. With Jason Roy warming the bench, the managment might just think about giving the explosive England batter a chance at the top with the hopes of turning their fortunes around in the match against Delhi. Roy, who came into the team as a replacement for Shakib Al Hasan, is yet to feature in the 16th edition of the league.
