Collingwood and Jadav also went out cheaply and it looked Delhi Daredevils would face some serious problems in today’s match. they were 67/4 in 8.3 overs and it looked they possibly not pose a total of 150 or more. But Gambhir and Karthik played a superb knock and got a valuable partnership. They both took the team score to 76 runs. Karthik then played a scintillating innings of 69 off just 38 balls. It was his super knock which propelled the Delhi Daredevils innings and they could finally score 188/6 in 20 overs.
