Narine hit South African fast bowler Kagiso Rabada for a boundary and two sixes to ensure that DC had no chance of making a comeback in the match. KKR eventually chased down the meagre target of 128 runs in the nineteenth over, with Nitish Rana hitting the winning runs. As a result of the win, the Eoin Morgan led side increased their points tally to 10 points and solidified their place in the top four.
