Delhi Daredevils v Kolkata Knight Riders – Match 18
Pandey-Yusuf overhaul the Delhi Daredevils spirit
The Delhi Daredevils were up against the Kolkata Knight Riders at their home venue in the match 18 of the season. Crucial contributions from the top order helped the Daredevils put on 168/7 in their 20 overs. The run chase could have been an easy but the Knight Riders lost their top three batsmen with only 21 runs on the board inside the first three overs. It was Manish Pandey and Yusuf Pathan who then stitched a 110-run stand to rally along the run chase.
Pathan hit a brisk 59 off 39 balls with 6 fours and 2 sixes to his name. Pathan perished in the 15th over and a couple of more wickets followed soon. 9 runs was needed off the last over and Pandey was at the crease batting after reaching his fifty. Pandey showed nerves of steel against the experienced Amit Mishra who bowled the final over. Pandey finished things off in style by hitting a six over long on to help KKR win by 4 wickets.
