Mohali, May 7 (IBNS) Kings XI Punjab bowlers performed exceptionally well in the death to help their side beat Delhi Daredevils by nine runs in an Indian Premier League match here on Saturday.

Posting 181 for five on the scorecard, it was Kings bowlers who restricted the opponents restricted at 172 for five in their 20 overs.

Quinton de Kock(52) and Sanju Samson (49) made a strong start to the run chase for Delhi as they posted 70 runs in less than 8 overs.  Kock hit four boundaries and two sixes in his 30-ball knock.

After Knock was dismissed, it was Sampson, who took charge for Delhi, and attempted to keep the momentum going for the visitors.

Sampson and Karun Nair (23) added 51 runs in their partnership.

But after they were dismissed it was Kings bowlers who took charge of the show.

Australian Marcus Stoinis bowled wonderfully and picked up three wickets by giving away 40 runs in his four overs.

Earlier, Stoinis and Indian Test wicket-keeper Wriddhiman Saha 52 runs each, Kings posted  181 runs on the scorecard.
