Uthappa took Shami for successive boundaries in the next over, and Knight Riders were always in front for the rest of the chase.

Dinesh Karthik made a fast 36, but Delhi Daredevils still needed a last push if they were to make a competitive total. JP Duminy and Jadhav provided that, even taking Sunil Narine for 29 in his last 2 overs, but it barely tested Gautam Gambhir and Robin Uthappa.

Delhi Daredevils were tied down for 16 overs when they batted, and were 105 for 5 when JP Duminy and Jadhav came together. The openers weren't able to get going and Kevin Pietersen could not handle the spinners before running himself out.
