kubectl get pods | ag <search term here> | cut -d' ' -f 1 | xargs -I {} kubectl delete pods/{}                 

Handy func:

func kubectl:delete-pods() {
  local search
  search="$1"
  kubectl get pods | ag "$search" | cut -d' ' -f 1 | xargs -I {} kubectl delete pods/{}                 
}

Lots of pods? Try:

# 2 workers, interactive, same order
kubectl get pods | ag "$search" | cut -d' ' -f 1 | parallel -j 2 -k --interactive kubectl delete pod 
# 2 workers, same order
kubectl get pods | ag "$search" | cut -d' ' -f 1 | parallel -j 2 -k kubectl delete pod  ```
