Delhi Capitals (DC) captain Rishabh Pant’s quick work of hands resulted in his opposition captain Shreyas Iyer of Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), losing his wicket as he was stumped off Kuldeep Yadav’s delivery in their IPL 2022 match at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai.
The two sides clashed in the 19th match of the Indian Premier League season 15 and Kolkata captain Shreyas Iyer won the toss against his former franchise, the Delhi Capitals, and chose to bat first. The KKR team went in unchanged, but Delhi made one change, bringing in Khaleel Ahmed for Anrich Nortje.

Iyer looked good to take KKR to the finishing line and even completed his half-century. However, after making 54 in 33 balls with 5 fours and 2 sixes, he tried to up the ante against Kuldeep Yadav and jumped out of the crease to hit a six.
But he missed the delivery and Rishabh Pant showed quick work of hands to destroy the stumps and send Iyer back, leaving DC 117/4 in 12.5 overs.
