was seen unleashing his frustration in the dressing room after getting dismissed via a run-out during Match 32 of the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League between Delhi Capitals and Rajasthan Royals at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Wednesday, April 16. A terrible mix-up in the middle between striker, Abishek Porel, and Karun brought about the end of the latter. 

The batter, who was coming off a spectacular 89-run knock, was run-out at the non-striker's end due to an unfortunate miscommunication with Porel. The combination of Wanindu Hasaranga and Sandeep Sharma did the rest and Karun had to walk back for a three-ball duck. He was spotted throwing his gloves to the floor and letting out a scream in sheer agitation.

 ended up posting 188/5 at the end of 20 overs. Abishek Porel top-scored for the hosts with 49 (37) to his name. Axar Patel's 34-run cameo off just 14 deliveries elevated his side to a much more respectable score than what was projected at the halfway stage. Tristan Stubbs ended the innings in style. The South African dynamic batter got to 34* off only 18 balls.

As for , Jofra Archer ended up securing a two-fer. The pace-bowling spearhead conceded 32 runs in his four overs. Tushar Deshpande's three overs ended up yielding 38 runs. The right-arm medium pacer proved to be the most expensive bowler for the visitors. The Sri Lankan duo of Maheesh Theekshana and Wanindu Hasaranga gave away 40 and 38 runs in their respective four overs. Sandeep Sharma, who at one point had conceded only 14 runs in his first three, ended up with figures of 0/33 in his entire quota.
