A two-wicket over from Anukul Roy has powered the Delhi Capitals’ batting collapse in the IPL 2026 game played on May 08 at Delhi.

He dismissed inform batter Pathum Nissanka and Tristan Stubbs in the single over, giving an edge for Kolkata Knight Riders in Friday’s clash.

After being invited to bat first, KL Rahul and Pathum Nissanka opened the innings while Anukul Roy opened the bowling attack.

The opener duo made a solid start, scoring 49 runs for the first wicket. However, Kartik Tyagi brought a crucial breakthrough, dismissing in-form KL Rahul for 23 runs.

Nitish Rana who came to bat at No.3 joined Pathum Nissanka as Delhi Capitals scored 55 runs in the powerplay.

Cameron Green who deliveried the 8th over, bagged the wicket of Nitish Rana for 3 runs. He was dismissed on a slower short delivery where the ball goes off the gloves to the short fine where Sunil Narine picked an easy catch.

Sameer Rizvi who came to bat at No.4, lost his wicket to Sunil Narine, after slog sweeping the bal in the air towards deep mid-wicket and Rovman Powell took the catch.

However, Delhi Capitals had a relief as Pathum Nissanka posted his fifty on 28 deliveries. To add the woes, Anukul Roy bagged the wicket of Pathum Nissanka for 50. He was dismissed on a stumping after missing the wide outside off delivery and Raghuvanshi made a quick stumping.

In the same over, Anukul Roy bagged the wicket of Tristan Stubbs as Delhi Captials lost five wickets for 89 runs.
