Currently, the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) are locking horns with Delhi Capitals (DC) at the iconic Eden Gardens in Kolkata. After winning the toss, the DC skipper, Shreyas Iyer asked the hosts to bat first citing the batting-friendly conditions. However, the hosts started their innings in an unforgettable way as the debutant Joe Denly got dismissed on the first ball of the match itself.

During the toss, the KKR skipper, Dinesh Karthik revealed that they have made as many as 3 changes to their squad as Chris Lynn, Sunil Narine, and Harry Gurney made way for Denly, Lockie Ferguson, and Carlos Braithwaite. On the other hand, DC made just one change to their squad as Keemo Paul came back to the squad to replace Sandeep Lamichhane.

Ishant Sharma was bowling the first over of the match and on the very first ball, he sent the off stump of Denly for a cartwheel. Sharm delivered a full-length ball swinging sharply in as the ball jagged back in from just outside off stump, and the debutant played a push drive and ended up creating a huge gap between the bat and pad as he missed the ball altogether.

Denly had to go back on a golden duck on his IPL debut and Robin Uthappa had to walk in as a virtual opener.
