Kuldeep Yadav marked his return in style with a brilliant three-wicket haul as Delhi Capitals crushed Kolkata Knight Riders by 40 runs in their final IPL 2026 league match on Sunday.
In a game with no playoff implications, KL Rahul’s explosive half-century and Kuldeep’s match-turning spell helped Delhi finish their campaign on a high. DC posted 203/5 before bowling KKR out for 163 in 18.4 overs.
The result helped Delhi move above Kolkata to sixth place in the standings. KKR finished seventh after another disappointing season under Ajinkya Rahane. The contest had effectively become a dead rubber after Rajasthan Royals defeated Mumbai Indians earlier in the day to seal the final playoff spot.
Rahul led Delhi’s batting effort with a blazing 30-ball 60. The wicketkeeper-batter smashed five fours and four sixes to register his sixth fifty of the season. He attacked from the start, especially targeting Sunil Narine. Rahul danced down the track repeatedly to loft the veteran spinner for boundaries and sixes.
