Mumbai, April 20 : Delhi Capitals (DC) bundled out Punjab Kings (PBKS) for 115, the lowest score in the 2022 IPL, here at the Brabourne Stadium on Wednesday. DC bowlers split the loot, ensuring PBKS batters get no room to settle down. Axar Patel (2/10), Lalit Yadav (2/11), Khaleel Ahmed (2/21), Kuldeep Yadav (2/24) and Mustafizur Rahman (1/28) started wreaking havoc on PBKS towards the end of the Powerplay. PBKS skipper Mayank Agarwal, who missed the last match, and Shikhar Dhawan gave a decent start. Agarwal clobbered Shardul Thakur for three boundaries in the third over, before Lalit cleaned up the mess. A brilliant catch from wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant ended Dhawan’s (9) stay in the middle. On a Mustafizur’s ball, an inside edge rattled the stumps of Agarwal (24). DC then fetched the crucial wicket of Liam Livingstone. The Englishman missed the straight loft off the bowling of Axar and gloveman Pant stumped him cheaply for two. From hereon, PBKS could never recover. The last recognised PBKS batters – Jonny Bairstow (9), Jitesh Sharma (32), Shahrukh Khan (12) – fell shortly, leaving their side on 92/8 after 14.3 overs. PBKS’ only maximum came off the bat of Rahul Chahar (12).
