After Rahul lost his wicket to Trent Boult, KK Nair took the charge and slammed a fifty off 33 balls. Nair lost his wicket to Daniel Christian just after his fifty when the team total stood at 138 runs at the loss of four wickets. David Miller and Marcus Stoinis took KXIP to the finishing line as the team chased the total of 167 runs in 18.5 overs thereby winning the match by six wickets.

While DD will play its next match against the returning Rajasthan Royals (RR) on April 11, KXIP will play its next match against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) on April 13.
