Toss: Won by Delhi Capitals, who chose to field first.
Captain of DC: Shreyas Iyer
Captain of KXIP: Ravichandran Ashwin
The score of KXIP: 166/9 (20.0 overs)
The score of DC: 152 all out (19.2 overs)
Man of the match: Sam Curran
As it is rightly said Experience also matters, Delhi has young and talented players but they all lack in experience. Dhawan and Shreyas had a very good partnership, they even together scored a half-century for the team, after they were out Pant and Ingram came they also together scored fifty for the team.
With this everyone was thinking that today DC will win. However after Pant’s wicket suddenly the scene was something different. One by one the remaining players came into the field and went out within very less time. In the last 17 balls, DC only did 8 runs losing 7 wickets and that was the end, they lost a match which they could have easily won. After winning this match KXIP have moved to the second position in the rank table of IPL, they have won 3 out of 4 matches which they palyed.
