RR batting was good today. But they still need to figure out their batting order, as they lost their way and surely 20/25 runs short.

MI on the other hand had a good day. Top order did bat well today. Bowling was also excellent.

Match 25 [ DC v/s KKR] - Statistics and Analysis:

DC won the toss and elected to field.

KKR scored 154/6 in 20 overs. KKR started slow and lost few wickets quickly.

In reply, DC started with a bang. First over itself DC scored 25 runs. A good first wicket partnership of 132 runs in 14 overs, secured the match. DC reached the target in 16.3 overs [156/3]

DC won the match by 7 wickets [21 balls to spare]

Player of the match - Prithvi Shaw [DC]

For DC this match is a very good comeback. DC lost their last match by 1 run. DC outclassed KKR in all the departments today

KKR middle order batting woes continued. Openers also did not play aggressively. This is becoming a trend for KKR. Morgan again went for a duck today. KKR has to figure out their plans, if they want to qualify for the playoffs. It will get difficult as they keep losing matches
