Kolkata struggling again at 103/5 after 15 overs.

What is the purpose of signing Cummins for $2.2m if you can’t bowl him when your side is getting tonked 30-0 after 2 overs?

Unbelievable that he hasn't been used. Opponent going at 15 an over four overs in, chasing a paltry T20 score.

Delhi are winning at a canter here: 71/0 off 7.

 

[Ab Fan]

Awful stuff from KKR.

 

[Hasan123]

KKR are an absolute joke. They have the squad to compete for the trophy but they are all over the place. Morgan has to be questioned and Mcculum is clearly not fit for a coaching role. Both should be replaced if KKR doesn’t get to the play offs.

DC looking strong even without some important players not playing.

Prithvi Shaw literally sealed the match with six fours in the first over, that too in a chase of such a small total. The match was done and dusted there itself.

Kolkata not doing well this season.

 

[Hasan123]

KKR should definitely look at making some changes in the next game. This combination is clearly not working.

 

[Hasan123]

Another wicket for disastrous investment.

 

[Rana]

Another wicket for disastrous investment.

Well he really did help them win the game today
