DC vs KKR Highlights IPL 2022: Umesh Yadav celebrates after dismissing Prithvi Shaw (IPL)

IPL 2022 Highlights, DC vs KKR: Kuldeep Yadav once again emerged as the standout player against his former franchise as Delhi Capitals defeated Kolkata Knight Riders by four wickets in the Indian Premier League clash on Thursday evening. The spinner scalped four wickets in the three overs he bowled. Riding on his clinical performance, Delhi restricted Kolkata Knight Riders to 146/9 in 20 overs after inviting them to bat first. In response, Delhi Capitals started the run chase on a shaky note, losing Prithvi Shaw and Mitchell Marsh inside the first two overs. Shaw was dismissed by Umesh Yadav on 0, while Harshit Rana dismissed Marsh on 13 (7). Warner then built a solid 65-run stand with Lalit Yadav, before Umesh broke the partnership, dismissing Warner on 42. Capitals then lost Lalit and Rishabh Pant in quick succession. Axar Patel then tried to restore normalcy before he was run-out on 24 (17). Rovman Powell then steered the Delhi unit home, finishing the match with a maximum. The tall Windies player returned unbeaten on 33 off 16 balls. Earlier in the evening, Nitish Rana scored 57 off 34 deliveries to help KKR post a respectable total on the board. Shreyas Iyer too chipped in with a crucial 42 off 37 runs in the middle. Andre Russell was dismissed on golden duck. Catch the Highlights of DC vs KKR:
