Delhi Daredevils won the toss and decided to bat first. The match was reduced to 11 overs due to heavy rainfall at Delhi. Kings XI Punjab were given a target of 119 by Delhi Daredevils.Shaun Marsh and James Hopes opened the batting for Kings XI but the start was not good. They were out with 2 and 4 scores respectively. Mahela Jayawardene was the top scorer for the team, he scored 36 runs in 17 balls and thus helped the team to win the match.
One over by Sehwag, which cost 22 runs, was the turning point. The pulled six by Jayawardene off Rajat Bhatia sealed it. The margin for error in shortened games is so limited that one false move can cost you the match.
