IPL8 – Kolkata Knight Riders a hard nut to crack for Delhi Daredevils even at home


#IPL8 #gautamgambhir #KKRvsDD #yusufpathan #umeshyadav Put into bat by Gautam Gambhir, the Delhi Daredevils discovered that the KKR is a hard nut to crack even at home. The Delhi Daredevils were hurt by lack of partnerships and, thanks to a late flourish from Angelo Mathews (21-ball 28), the home side limped to a score of just 146/8 which was certainly not what they had in mind. Yuvraj Singh contributed only 21 runs after being stumped.
This has been reported in timesofindia.indiatimes.com dated 20 April 2015.
The Kolkata bowlers led by pacers Morne Morkel and Umesh Yadav bowled a tight line and the South African pacer (2/30) drew first blood after getting Mayank Agarwal (1) caught at long leg with Umesh Yadav taking a sprawling catch.
The assault of KKR was mainly by the Captain Gautam Gambhir – his 49-ball 60 led Kolkata Knight Riders to a convincing six-wicket victory against Delhi Daredevils in their IPL encounter at the Feroz Shah Kotla. His able team mate Yusuf Pathan also contributed by remaining unbeaten on 40. This knock came off 26 balls and was studded with a huge six and six fours.
Umesh Yadav was the Man of the Match with his 3 for 18 in the allotted 4 overs.
