Jaiswal and Rohit set the tone with a commanding opening stand, their attacking intent making light work of the chase. Jaiswal was the aggressor from the outset, unfurling three boundaries in the first over. The elegant left-hander raced to his half-century in just 39 balls, propelling India past 100 within 13 overs. Rohit, in contrast, took his time before accelerating. He managed his first 10 runs from 17 deliveries, but quickly found his rhythm, dispatching Zia Ur Rahman for a four in the sixth over, followed by a four and a six in the eighth. He then took a liking to Rashid Khan, sweeping him for four to bring up his 47-ball fifty, and later collected back-to-back boundaries and a maximum off the Afghan spinner. Just as Rohit seemed poised …

Delhi Capitals, on the other hand, suffered their third consecutive loss. Finn Allen of Kolkata Knight Riders. (Sanchit Khanna/HT) The Feroz Shah Kotla wicket has sprung many surprises throughout the season: one day it was a belter where over 520 runs were scored, another day it was a sluggish surface that gripped, or it resembled the first session of a Test match with significant movement. On Friday, DC set KKR a mere 148-run target and it could be argued that they once again failed to come to terms with the pitch. Spin. Slow. Stump to stump — the Kolkata spinners had received the memo early. It wasn’t a minefield but the Delhi batters struggled to apply themselves. This is exactly what Allen did en route to his century as he led Kolkata Knight Riders to an eight-wicket win. Allen’s innings, a …

Samson admitted to feeling the pressure that came with a franchise pushing hard to secure him. With the added weight of expectations around replacing Dhoni and continued backing from the management, he was desperate to repay the faith.
