KKR's explosive batting in the middle overs coupled with fifty's from Nitish Rana and Sunil Rana helped Eoin Morgan's side to a big score of 194 after sent into bat first by Shreyas Iyer.Earlier, Kagiso Rabada and Anrich Nortje of Delhi Capitals combined to remove Shubman Gill, Rahul Tripathi and Dinesh Karthik early in the innings. Dinesh Karthik's horrendous run of form in the tournament continued as the former skipper failed with the bat again.
Earlier, DC won the toss and opted to bowl, the in form team decided to replace Prithvi Shaw with Shikar Dhawan. A win here for Delhi Capitals will make them the first team to qualify for the playoffs, while KKR winning will keep them alive in the hunt for a place in the final four. KKR are coming off an embarrassing defeat against Royal Challengers Bangalore, which saw them put a fragile performance with the bat, scoring just 84 for the loss of 8 wickets batting first. The Capitals on the other hand, are coming off a defeat themselves, against Kings XI Punjab
