It was a magical night for Kolkata in their last match when Pat Cummins smashed the joint fastest fifty of IPL and secured win for Kolkata.
Kolkata Knight Riders (KOL) Team Updates:
Pat Cummins smashed 56 off 15 (the joint-fastest fifty, off 14 balls) in a scintillating, match-turning cameo that left Mumbai Indians stunned
It was Cumminss final over in the first innings - worth 23 runs - which enabled MI to push towards a big score of 161/5 but Cummins arrived in the 14th over and absolutely dwarfed it with an effort that included four fours and six big sixes.
With 3 wins out of the 4 so far played, Kolkata is standing at the 1st position in points table.
Venkatesh Iyer and Ajinkya Rahane will probably open the inning.
Shreyas Iyer will bat at the one-down position. He is the backbone of the batting team.
Sam Billings and Nitish Rana will handle the middle-order batting.
Shreyas Iyer will lead the KOL as a Captain. He is also a good Batsman
Sam Billings will do the Wicket Keeping for KOL.
Sunil Narine and Varun Chakravarthy will take care of the spin bowling of his team.
Umesh Yadav , Pat Cummins and Rasikh Salam will lead the pace attack of his team.
Delhi Capitals (DC) Team Updates:
Batting has been a concern for Delhi Capitals with Players like R Powell not finishing the death overs on a high.
With just 1 win in the last 3 games, DC is not having a good time so far.
They will need to bring in their A Level game play and try to climb up the points table.
David Warner and Prithvi Shaw will probably open the inning.
Prithvi Shaw gave good start to the team as he scored his first fifty of the season.
Prithvi Shaw was the highest fantasy points gainer in the previous match.
Rishabh Pant will lead the Delhi Capitals as a Captain. He is also a good Wicket-Keeper
Rishabh Pant will do the Wicket Keeping for Delhi Capitals.
Rishabh Pant will bat at the one-down position.
Rovman Powell and Sarfaraz Khan will handle the middle-order batting.
Kuldeep Yadav and Lalit Yadav will take care of the spin bowling of his team.
Mustafizur Rahman and Shardul Thakur will lead the pace attack of his team.
Head to Head: 29
KOL: 16 Won DC: 12 Won
