It was possible thanks to the four-wicket haul by leg-spinner Amit Mishra along with an unbeaten 59 from Quinton de Kock. It ended in a Delhi Daredevils 8-wicket victory over Kings XI Punjab.
This has been reported in mid-day.com dated 15 April 2016.
Delhi won the toss and elected to field first. They managed to restrict Kings XI Punjab to a paltry 111 for 9 in 20 overs. It was all due to Amit Mishra, who became the second highest wicket-taker in IPL history after returning with figures of 3-0-11-4. He now has 116 IPL wickets under his belt.
