Gambhir guides KKR to easy win over Delhi Daredevils
New Delhi, Apr 20 (IBNS) Kolkata Knight Riders' captain Gautam Gambhir scored 60 runs during his team's run-chase against Delhi Daredevils to help his side beat the home team by 6 wickets here at the Feroz Shah Kotla Stadium on Monday.
Yusuf Pathan, who scored 40 off 26 balls, was the other star among the KKR batsmen. He hit 6 fours and 1 six during his knock.
Gambhir smashed 8 fours during his knock of 60.
It was Gautam Gambhir's 26th half-century in the Indian Premier League.
