While Angkrish Raghuvanshi and Rinku Singh helped KKR cross 200, Faf du Plessis's half-century for DC went in vain.

On the other hand, Ashutosh Sharma replaced Mukesh Kumar as DC's Impact Player in the second innings.

Ashutosh, who has emerged as a fine finisher, came in when DC were reduced to 146/6 with the dismissal of du Plessis.

Although Ashutosh inspired hope in the DC camp with a maximum, he was eventually dismissed by Varun Chakravarthy (7 off 6 balls).
