The match started on a tough note, with showers in Delhi delaying the toss
David Warner, the DC captain, won the toss and opted to bowl
The Delhi Capitals were all over the Knight Riders, picking up regular wickets and having them at 96-9 at one stage with a possibility of a sub-100 score
Even Jason Roy, who carried his bat through the collapse, succumbed to the pressure in the end
In the end, it was Andre Russell, who added 31 with Varun Chakravarthy for the final wicket, and smashed 3 sixes in the final over to get KKR to 127
David Warner was back at his fluent best, carting the bowlers all over the park, despite wickets falling at the other end
However, KKR kept taking regular wickets, and finally got Warner causing a panic in the DC camp
Despite some hiccups and a spin choke, Delhi Capitals teetered to their first win of the season, ending a three-week (and six-match) long wait
