Runs keep coming for Kolkata Knight Riders. 15 runs came off Khaleel Ahmed’s last over despite a wicket coming in it.

DC vs KKR Live: Expensive over

KKR 88/1 (6)

DC vs KKR Live: Salt is gone!

Anrich Nortje strikes in his very first over. He gets the wicket of Phil Salt. The KKR opener could not get it from the middle of his bat and so the ball could not travel the distance and Tristan Stubbs took the catch at mid-off. Salt is gone for 18 off 12 balls.

IPL 2024 Live: Sunil Narine on a roll!

KKR 17/0 (2)

DC vs KKR Live: Economical first over from Khaleel Ahmed

Khaleel Ahmed has started with a 7-run over. It could have been an even better over but Khaleel was not that perfect with his line and bowled a couple of wides.

KKR 7/0 (1)

DC vs KKR Live Score: The action begins!

Phil Salt is lucky there. It was a short ball from Khaleel Ahmed that took the outside edge of Salt’s bat and flew over the wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant for a four. Umpire has given it as byes. It seems that he didn’t spot the edge there. Nonetheless, KKR are 4/0 in 0.1 overs.
