IPL 2018, DD vs KKR: 5 talking points

#4 Amit Mishra's disciplined spell

Mishra's spell consisted of a maiden

Most of the DD bowlers did a fine job but the best amongst them was the 35-year old Amit Mishra. Mishra began by conceding just 5 runs in his first over.

In his second over, Mishra dismissed KKR skipper Dinesh Karthik thanks to a simple catch by Trent Boult. His third over was pretty expensive as 11 runs came from it. However, he rebounded brilliantly by bowling a wicket maiden in his final over where he dismissed Shivam Mavi. Mishra ended his spell with 2/23.

Mishra's spell is enough to prove that he will certainly be in DD's scheme of things as they try to keep their playoff hopes alive.
