Kolkata Knight Riders beat Daredevils by 17 runs

Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) beat Delhi Daredevils by 17 runs in an Indian Premier League (IPL) match at the Ferozeshah Kotla here Thursday.

Chasing a target of 149, Daredevils made 131 for nine in 20 overs.

Kolkata Knight Riders made 148 for seven in 20 overs against Delhi Daredevils in the Indian Premier League (IPL) at the Ferozeshah Kotla here Thursday.


Man of the match Manoj Tiwary was the top scorer for KKR to remain unbeaten on 61.

Meanwhile, the Pathan family made their presence felt at the Ferozeshah Kotla, but Mehmood Khan was disappointed after his elder son Yusuf Pathan couldn't get the massive hits for Kolkata Knight Riders today.

For Khan, it was a case of split loyalties as his elder son turned out for the Knight Riders while his younger son Irfan played for Daredevils.

"It was great to see both my sons playing against each other. It is a completely different feeling for me. I don't know whom to support in this match," said Khan.

Though he was unfortunate not to see Yusuf's big hits, he was impressed with Irfan's performance. Yusuf was caught by his brother at long-on off Umesh Yadav.

"I love to see Yusuf's big hits, but today I was disappointed. But I am happy with Irfan. He bowled well and took a couple of good catches. He is slowly finding his rhythm and I am hopeful that a national call is not far," he said.
