Kolkata Knight Riders will square off with Delhi Capitals in the 19th match of IPL 2022 on Sunday. In the previous match against Mumbai Indians, at one time, Knight Riders would have given up the match. However, Australian Test skipper Pat Cummins had different plans and played an improbable inning of 56* runs from just 15 balls to help his side conquer the Mumbai Indians by 5 wickets with 24 balls still left. Rahane’s form is a bit of a worrying thing for the management. Will they take a harsh decision on him? We need to wait and watch.
Delhi Capitals, on the other hand, weren’t able to time the ball properly and failed to hit big sixes in the last match against Super Giants. This was their 2nd consecutive loss in this tournament & are currently at the seventh position in the points table with just two points on board. Anrich Nortje who played his first match of the season didn’t look effective with the ball. Prithvi Shaw looking as usual in sublime form and he will be the key man for them.
