IPL 2018, DD vs CSK: 4 Reasons why Chennai lost against Delhi

Ad

#3 Patel-Shankar partnership

The Delhi Daredevils were sitting pretty at a score of 77/1 after the first 10 overs. With 9 wickets in hand, Delhi looked set to score in excess of 180 but they lost their way in the middle overs as wickets fell at regular intervals.

Delhi went from 77/1 to 97/5. It was at that time that Delhi got two unlikely heroes in the form of Harshal Patel and Vijay Shankar. The duo added 65 runs off just 32 balls. Patel, in particular, was very impressive as he smacked 36 runs off 16 balls. He plundered 3 sixes in the last over of the innings to take Delhi to an above par score.
