DC vs KKR: Highlights: In IPL 2025, a very important match was played between Delhi Capitals and Kolkata Knight Riders at Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Tuesday. In this match, KKR, who came to bat first after losing the toss, scored 204 runs for the loss of 9 wickets in the stipulated 20 overs. In response, the host Delhi team was reduced to 190 runs and had to face defeat by 14 runs. This is Delhi's second consecutive and fourth defeat in the tournament. After this defeat, DC captain Akshar Patel looked very disappointed. He especially blamed his bowlers for this defeat.

'We did not bowl according to the wicket in the powerplay'

After the match, Akshar Patel said that I think we did not bowl according to the wicket in the powerplay. We gave 15-20 runs too much. However, the positive thing was how we stopped them after the powerplay. He said that if we talk about batting, even though some batsmen failed, 2-3 of us contributed and took it very close. We lost some wickets easily. When Vipraaj was batting, there was hope, if Ashutosh was there, they could repeat the first game.

Akshar also gave an update on his injury

At the same time, giving an update on his injury, Akshar said that my skin got peeled off while diving to stop the ball on the practice wicket, but the good thing is that there is a break of 3-4 days before the next match and hopefully I will be fine.

Rahane praised Sunil Narine

At the same time, KKR captain Ajinkya Rahane praised Sunil Narine and said that Sunil's two overs after 13 overs were important. When he took wickets, the match turned in our favor. 204 runs on this wicket was good, but to be honest, I felt that we were 15 runs behind. In between, Russell's one over and Anukul and Varun's spell were good. Take confidence from this match and move forward.
