NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Kolkata Knight Riders coach Brendon McCullum criticised the top-order's slow batting in Thursday's defeat against Delhi Capitals in the Indian Premier League (IPL) and said changes were likely in the team to revive their campaign. Delhi opener Prithvi Shaw smashed 82 off 41 balls to set the tone for his team's seven-wicket victory with 21 balls remaining. "It's very, very disappointing," McCullum said after two-time champions Kolkata slumped to their fifth defeat in seven matches. "What we saw from Prithvi Shaw was the perfect template of how we want to play. "It's very difficult if you don't play shots to score runs, and unfortunately we didn't play enough shots.
