Dushmantha Chameera latched onto an absolute screamer of a grab to get rid of Anukul Roy for a golden duck during the ongoing Indian Premier League game between Delhi Capitals and Kolkata Knight Riders at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Tuesday, April 29. Anukul, playing his first game of IPL 2025 while slotting in for Vaibhav Arora, was dismissed on the fourth delivery of the final over of the first innings.
A misexecuted yorker on the pads was whipped aerially by Anukul, who honestly made a sweet connection. The ball was destined to go for a maximum near the deep backwards square leg area. Chameera ran to his left and flung himself sideways to hang onto an absolute worldie of an opportunity. Chameera’s effort was applauded by all of his DC teammates, most of whom ran across to mob the Sri Lankan.

Earlier in the evening, DC won the toss and opted to field first. KKR got off to a flyer inside the powerplay, amassing 79 for the loss of one wicket. The visitors’ top three batters aggregated 79 off 42 deliveries. Angkrish Raghuvanshi top-scored with 44 (32).
KKR ended up on 204/9. Anukul’s wicket was one out of the three wickets that fell in the final over of the innings. Skipper Axar Patel ended up as the most economical bowler from his side. The spin-bowling all-rounder conceded only 27 runs in his four-over quota.
