KKR Thrash Delhi Capitals by Eight Wickets as Allen Hits Unbeaten Ton

Kolkata Knight Riders thrashed Delhi Capitals by eight wickets in IPL 2026, with Finn Allen scoring an unbeaten 100 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Friday. The New Zealander steered KKR to a target of 143 in 14.2 overs, handing the three-time champion its fourth victory on the trot.

Delhi Capitals struggled with the bat, posting a total of 142 for eight on a slow surface, with KKR's spinners holding sway. Anukul Roy struck twice, while Sunil Narine and Kartik Tyagi also took two wickets each.

Pathum Nissanka stood out for the host with a knock of 50, including an inside-out drive off Anukul to reach his half-century. However, DC's ineptitude with the bat ultimately led to its downfall.

The win keeps KKR's playoff hopes alive, while DC's future this season hangs by a thread after its seventh defeat in 11 matches. The teams will look to regroup and prepare for their next matches, with KKR aiming to build on its momentum and DC seeking to turn its season around.
