Tue Apr 29 15:20:00 UTC 2025: ## Delhi Capitals Face Tough Chase After KKR Post 204/9 in IPL 2025 Clash

**New Delhi, India** – Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) set Delhi Capitals (DC) a challenging 205-run target in their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 encounter on Tuesday. Despite a strong start, KKR’s innings faltered in the latter stages, eventually finishing on 204/9 after 20 overs. Angkrish Raghuvanshi top-scored for KKR with 44 runs, while Rinku Singh contributed 36. For DC, Mitchell Starc claimed three wickets, while captain Axar Patel and Vipraj Nigam took two each.

DC’s chase got off to a disastrous start, losing Abhishek Porel early. KL Rahul’s casual run-out further hampered their efforts. While Karun Nair and Faf du Plessis steadied the ship for a while, the required run rate remained a significant challenge.

The match saw several exciting moments, including a stunning catch by Dushmantha Chameera and a powerful six by Andre Russell. However, consistent wickets by DC kept KKR under pressure throughout the second half of their innings.

The Delhi Capitals will need a significant turnaround in their batting performance if they are to overcome the substantial target and secure victory. The match is currently underway, and the result remains to be seen.
