After limiting LSG to 167/7 in their 20 overs, Kuldeep was declared the Player of the Match.
Marcus Stoinis (8), Nicholas Pooran, and LSG skipper KL Rahul (39) were all removed by Kuldeep for a first-ball duck.

Pooran’s defence was pierced by a straighter delivery from Kuldeep on off, and the off-stump was tossed.
Kuldeep discussed his ball that cleanly bowled the dangerous Pooran on IPLT20.com.
“Achcha ball tha, it pitched on nice length and spun; it was a real googly. I had arranged the field in accordance with my intention to bowl that delivery, and fortunately, the ball pitched precisely, giving me the wicket. Since you rejoice when you get a wicket off a good delivery, Kuldeep said, “the celebration was appropriate because it was a good ball.”

DC captain Rishabh Pant showed signs of recovery with a 24-ball 41.
Speaking about Pant, Kuldeep stated, “I am very thrilled for him. I have seen his improvement over the last year, and I really appreciate the way he bats. He was obviously anxious during the first game, but he has performed really well after then. Guys such as Pant are guys you would always want on the squad, no matter the format or circumstances.”
The Delhi Capitals are ranked ninth in the standings after winning two of their last six games.
