Kaushal suman

The Central Delhi Kings produced a commanding all-round display to book their place in the playoffs of Season 2 of the Delhi Premier League (DPL), defeating Purani Dilli 6 by 104 runs (DLS method) in a rain-curtailed clash at the Arun Jaitley Stadium here on Monday.

Batting first, the Kings set the tone with a powerful batting performance, piling up 197/5 in just 18 overs. Despite losing wicketkeeper Kaushal Suman early for 5 (7), opener Yash Dhull—continuing his fine run of form—anchored the innings with a fluent half-century. He combined with Yugal Saini (28 off 20) for a steady 57-run partnership before they were sent back.
