Five slow stats

118 – The number of balls batsmen didn't score off in the game between Delhi Daredevils and Kings XI Punjab at the Feroz Shah Kotla. It’s the most in a match during the 2010 IPL, beating the 117 in the game between Bangalore and Chennai at the Chinnaswamy Stadium.

2 – The number of sixes hit at the Kotla was the lowest for any IPL match this season. Both those sixes were hit by Punjab, making Delhi’s innings the only the second six-less one this year, after Kolkata’s against Chennai at Eden Gardens.

20 – The number of dot balls bowled by Ramesh Powar, the most in a spell this season. He’s tied with Dirk Nannes who bowled 20 dots against Punjab.

2.91 – Dinesh Karthik’s scoring-rate per over during his 35-ball 17 is the lowest in this season among batsmen who have faced at least 20 balls in an innings.

40 – The number of runs Delhi scored in 11 overs from the 5th to the 15th. It’s the lowest aggregate during this interval this season.
