This defeat is on Pant, first screwing up in last over while baating then giving avesh khan 19th over. He should take the entire blame.

 

Very poor captaincy.
Tom Curran is playing his 1st match, if i'm not wrong.
Expecting him to him restrict 12 runs is stupid, specially with Rabada having an over left.

If captaincy for IPL matches had any bearing Virat couldn't have gone on as captain even for 3months in international formats.

Kohli is like Einstein when compared to Pant as a captain. Kohli takes okay decisions on the pitch, it's his team selections and batting order decisions that are pathetic. Pant fails everywhere, that too spectacularly.

Moreover, looking at his inconsistent and careless approach to batting, his position isn't fixed, grooming him for captaincy is stupid

To be fair tom curran did bowl well . Thats what i tought. but the 19th over was a bad choice. he already bowled full-toss in previous overs too.

 

Regardless of how well he bowled, you don't give the last over to a bowler of his speed, especially against a power hitter like Dhoni. Common sense. Made absolutely no sense to give him the final over

Criticism for Pant is too much. Everyone is hailing Rabada as if he was doing brilliantly in all league games. He is the worst bowler for DC this season and is only playing because of reputation and what he did last year. Curran bowled 3 very good overs while Rabada was leaking 11 per over. So, Pant gave the ball to the guy who was bowling well which in hindsight didn't work. Doesn't mean it was a dumbass decision. Who knew Dhoni who can't connect in any games so far will middle everything. 

 

I feel for Kohli. Maybe he might win ipl as a player. I would love to see Hessons face right now who was making fun of others during auction strategy and couldn't make a good team himself. He made world's best white ball player a 5-6 batsman rather than playing him at 3. 

 

KKR vs DC. We have the advantage as our bowling is better and batting can make scores. Just need Ashwin to bowl some off spinners rather than carrom balls. Only if Stoinis was available to play in place of Curran.
