Twitter reactions: Sunil Narine, Angkrish Raghuvanshi shine as clinical KKR registers a dominant win over DC in IPL 2024
The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 witnessed yet another thrilling clash as the Delhi Capitals (DC) locked horns with the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in what turned out to be a spectacular showdown. Amidst the roar of the crowd and the tension in the air, KKR emerged victorious in a comprehensive fashion, overpowering DC by a staggering margin of 106 runs.
KKR’s batting masterclass
Sunil Narine’s explosive knock
From the very onset, it was evident that KKR meant business. Led by the remarkable performances of Sunil Narine and Angkrish Raghuvanshi, they set the stage on fire with their explosive batting display. Narine, primarily known for his prowess with the ball, surprised everyone with his ferocious batting onslaught. His scintillating knock of 85 runs off just 39 deliveries left the DC bowlers gasping for breath and the fans in awe of his talent.
Angkrish Raghuvanshi’s stylish arrival in IPL 2024
But Narine was not alone in his heroics. Angkrish Raghuvanshi, a rising star in the IPL arena, showcased his immense potential with a stylish fifty that announced his arrival in the tournament. His quickfire innings added to the onslaught, putting DC under immense pressure.
The finishing touch by Andre Russell and Rinku Singh
The onslaught didn’t end there. Andre Russell and Rinku Singh joined forces to further demoralize the DC bowling attack. Russell’s blistering 41 off 19 balls and Singh’s explosive 28 off just 8 deliveries propelled KKR to a record-breaking total of 272/7 in their allotted 20 overs.

DC’s chase and the struggle against KKR’s bowling
Rishabh Pant and Tristan Stubbs efforts in vain
In response, DC’s top order struggled to get going against the formidable KKR bowling attack. Despite valiant efforts from David Warner and Prithvi Shaw, wickets fell at regular intervals, denting DC’s chase early on. Although Rishabh Pant and Tristan Stubbs provided some resistance with impressive half-centuries, the target proved insurmountable for DC as they were eventually bowled out for 166.
KKR’s bowling duo of Varun Chakaravarthy and Vaibhav Arora wreaked havoc on the DC batting lineup, claiming three wickets each and sealing KKR’s dominant victory.

It was SRK’s decision to bring Gauti back because he knows there’s nobody bigger & better than GG if KKR wants to win trophies again.
