The 47th match of IPL 2024 is being played today between Delhi and Kolkata.
In match number 47 of the ongoing IPL 2024, the teams of Kolkata Knight Riders and Delhi Capitals are face to face. Let us tell you that this match between the two teams is being played at Eden Gardens, Kolkata. Delhi won the toss and decided to bat first, which proved completely wrong for them.
The top order of the Capitals disintegrated in front of the excellent bowling of KKR. Delhi lost three important wickets of its top order in the powerplay itself. On the other hand, when Harshit Rana dismissed Abhishek Porel on a cutter ball in the 7th over of Delhi’s innings, he wanted to do a flying kiss celebration after dismissing Porel, but then he did not do it.
Let us tell you that the reason behind this was that when he had done this gesture earlier, he was fined for violating the IPL code of conduct. But when Harshit was celebrating his wicket after dismissing Porel, the video of his new gesture quickly went viral on social media.

Delhi gave Kolkata an easy target of 154 runs to win.
So if we tell you about the first innings of the match, Delhi has been able to score only 153 runs against KKR at the loss of 9 wickets in 20 overs. Spin bowler Kuldeep Yadav was the top scorer for Delhi by scoring 35* runs, followed by Prithvi Shaw (13), Jack Fraser McGurk (12), Abhishek Porel (18), Shay Hope (6). Players like Rishabh Pant (27), Axar Patel (15) and Tristan Stubbs (4) proved to be flops.
On the other hand, excellent bowling was seen from KKR in the match. Spinner Varun Chakraborty got maximum 3 wickets, while Vaibhav Arora and Harshit Rana took 2-2 wickets. Apart from this, Mitchell Starc and Sunil Narayan got 1 wicket each.
Well, now it will be worth watching whether KKR can achieve the easy target of 154 runs given by Delhi or not?
