An unbeaten 55-run stand between JP Duminy and Kedhar Jadhav helped Delhi Daredevils score 155 for five in 20 overs against Kolkata Knight Riders in an Indian Premier League (IPL) match at the Ferozeshah Kotla here Wednesday.

Duminy (40 not out) and Jadhav (26 not out) added 55 runs off 25 balls for the sixth wicket and bailed out Delhi from a precarious 105 for five as the top order was once again found wanting.

Dinesh Karthik contributed 36 off 22 balls but Quinton de Kock (10), Murali Vijay (20) and Kevin Pietersen (6) once again failed to get going.

Sunil Narine could not have the same impact as his previous performances and conceded 38 runs in his four overs, picking up the sole wicket of Laxmi Ratan Shukla.

Bangladeshi all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan was the pick of the bowlers with figures of one for 13 in four overs.
