Pushed to open the batting in the absence of Faf du Plessis, KL Rahul brought back memories of his free-flowing self in T20s by slamming a superb 77 and set up Delhi Capitals' solid 95-run win over five-time champions Chennai Super Kings in match 17 of IPL 2095 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on Saturday.
On a pitch which wasn't a batting paradise per se, Rahul led the way for DC through his 77 off 51 balls, laced with six fours and three sixes, as his brilliant adaptability skills came to the fore yet again.
Whenever the bowlers made a mistake, like pitching it too full, Rahul was quick to hit them for boundaries, especially three of them coming against CSK's strike bowler and tournament's leading wicket taker Noor Ahmad, who didn't complete his full quota of overs.
Rahul found good support from crucial knocks by Abishek Porel, Axar Patel, Sameer Rizvi and Tristan Stubbs, though none of them stayed for long to make a score after electing to bat first. In reply, CSK suffered an upper-order batting collapse as DC were bang on with their plans.
