During the 22nd match of the 11th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) between Delhi Daredevils (DD) and Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) at Delhi, Kings XI Punjab’s Mayank Agarwal’s agility and swiftness ran out Delhi Daredevils’ Daniel Christian as the home team further sank down in the chase.
After Gautam Gambhir put Kings XI Punjab in to bat, the visitors lost wickets at regular intervals, which didn’t help their case at all. Without Chris Gayle, their task had become all the more daunting. In their allotted quota of 20 overs, Punjab scored an underwhelming 143-8.
A below-par total did not dampen the spirits of Kings XI Punjab as they fought hard in the second innings. Their bowlers were successful in dismissing the Daredevils’ top order cheaply.
What gave them a major jolt in the middle overs was Agarwal’s effort which had found Christian short of the crease. It happened on the last ball of the 12th over when Shreyas Iyer hit a Ravichandran Ashwin down to long on. It on this ball that Agarwal ran in quickly and threw the ball even quickly back to Ashwin as he ran out Christian, who ended up scoring 6 (11).
