Rahul Tripathi’s six off the penultimate ball helped Kolkata Knight Riders sneak into the final of IPL 2021 in dramatic fashion after a see-saw chase against Delhi Capitals. Delhi might have not have had enough runs on the board, but their bowlers ensured they went down fighting. Despite KKR getting off to a flier, DC stormed back into the contest in the last three overs. Wickets fell in a cluster and Delhi started smelling blood, but Tripathi held his nerve to hack R Ashwin straight down the ground, nudging his franchise into the summit clash of IPL 2021.
WHAT. A. FINISH! 👌 👌 @KKRiders hold their nerve and seal a thrilling win over the spirited @DelhiCapitals in the #VIVOIPL #Qualifier2 & secure a place in the #Final. 👏 👏 #KKRvDC
