Kagiso Rabada emerged as the star of the Super Over at the Feroz Shah Kotla as Delhi Capitals beat Kolkata Knight Riders in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2019 on Saturday.
Delhi were in danger of losing the match after missing out on winning the game in the alloted 20 overs. After Prithvi Shaw got out in the penultimate over for 99 runs, they could add just 11 runs more and ended up tying the game.
Delhi batted first in the super over and Prasidh Krishna bowled brilliantly to concede only 10 runs. When Andre Russell hit Kagiso Rabada for a boundary off the first ball it seemed Delhi has thrown away the game. However, Rabada hit back bowling a scorching yorker to Andre Russell and uprooted his middle-stump off the thrid ball. He then allowed Dinesh Karthik and Robin Uthappa just three single of the final three balls to win the match for Delhi.
