After today’s match between Delhi Capitals and Kings XI Punjab, Mayank Agarwal has lost his place to Shikhar Dhawan. However, Kings XI Punjab captain still manages to remain at the top.
In a devastating show by Delhi Capitals batters, Shikhar Dhawan emerged as a savior today. He scored an unbeaten 105 out of the team total of 164/5. The second-highest scorers were Shreyas Iyer and Rishabh Pant with 14 runs each. It clearly speaks about the impact Dhawan’s innings had. In reply, even Kings XI Punjab had to struggle initially.
