I wouldn't be at all surprised if Kolkata breaks Hyderabad's record today. Kolkata's top order batsmen have done great batting. At the end of 15 overs, Kolkata collected only 195 runs with the loss of 3 wickets. The way Kolkata's batsmen are batting, it probably won't be difficult for them to collect 70-80 runs in the last 5 overs.
Every bowler in the Delhi squad is giving plenty of runs. Ishant Sharma gave 35 runs in 2 overs. Axar Patel gave 18 in 1 over. Besides, Rashik Salam gave 47 runs in 3 overs.
SUnil Narine and Angkrish batted very aggressively. Narine scored 85 runs off just 39 balls and Angkrish scored 54 runs off 27 balls. And now Russell is unbeaten with 26 off just 10 balls. Kolkata will collect 280+ today if Russel stays at the crease.
While KKR scored 272 runs in the first innings, Delhi Capitals need to score 273 runs in just 120 balls to win in the second innings, which is definitely a much tougher equation. About 16 runs should be made per over. If the batsmen score ten runs in an over, then their pressure will increase in the next over, there is no opportunity to play dot ball in such matches. With the huge collection that KKR has made, we can assume that the result will go in KKR's favor in this match.
