|
0.1 OUT! BOWLED! What about that! What about that! Just the start that Rajasthan wanted. Full ball around off, a hint of away movement as well. Shaw comes on the front foot and looks to drive. Gets an inside edge and the ball goes onto hit the stumps. Just what the doctor ordered for the Men in Pink. 0/1

| Shikhar Dhawan | 57 | 33 | 6 | 2 | 172.72 |
|
11.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Shikhar Dhawan is gone. A big wicket. Fullish and outside off, Dhawan switches to a right hander's stance and looked to work that over third man. A reverse sweep of sorts. He though ends up getting it off the top edge. It goes to Tyagi at short third man who takes a comfortable catch. 95/3

| Ajinkya Rahane | 2 | 9 | 0 | 0 | 22.22 |
|
2.3 OUT! CAUGHT! No timing, no elevation for Rahane here. He perishes. What a start for Rajasthan here. On a length around off, Rahane looked to go big on the leg side. Does not time it right. Ends up lobbing a simple catch to Robin Uthappa at mid on. 10/2

| Shreyas Iyer C | 53 | 43 | 3 | 2 | 123.25 |
|
16 OUT! CAUGHT! Captain Iyer departs and Rajasthan have struck gold at the right time. Good catch by Archer. He can do nothing wrong tonight. Credit to Tyagi as well. He has bowled a fantastic over and deserves this wicket. Full ball around off, Iyer swings but it is a very tired looking shot from the Delhi skipper. He ends up hitting in the air towards mid off. Archer comes running in and takes a very good catch. 132/4

| Marcus Stoinis | 18 | 19 | 1 | 0 | 94.73 |
|
19 OUT! CAUGHT! What an impact Jofra Archer is having in this game. 3 wickets for him. He finishes with 4-0-19-3. Full and around off, Stoinis looks to heave that over the leg side. He however gets it only as far as mid-wicket who takes a simple catch. Tewatia it is. 153/5

| Alex Carey Wk | 14 | 13 | 0 | 1 | 107.69 |
|
19.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Two simple catches in the deep for Rajasthan - Stoinis earlier, Carey now. Pace off does the trick. Slow full ball outside off, Carey looks to lift it over long off. However, he gets it off the toe end of the bat and gives catching practice to long off. Jofra Archer takes it with ease. 157/6

| Axar Patel | 7 | 4 | 1 | 0 | 175 |
|
20 OUT! Pace off does the trick again for Rajasthan. Unadkat gets his second wicket. Full length ball around off, Patel shuffles across and looks to slog sweep. Ends up getting a top edge towards short third man where it is taken. DELHI FINISH AT 161/7. 161/7

10.2 OUT! CAUGHT! Stokes holes out and Tushar Deshpande takes his first wicket in the league on his debut! What a man to get! It is the English World Cup winning hero, Ben Stokes. A moment he will never forget in his life. Massive moment in the context of the game as well. Ben Stokes was looking so good and was motoring this chase with minimum fuss but with this wicket Delhi are back in the game. Smart bowling from the debutant. He takes the pace off the ball. Stokes comes down the track and half-heartedly plays the lofted shot as the ball arrives slower than he anticipated. He ends up hitting it to the left of long on. Substitute, Lalit Yadav there moves on that side and makes no mistake. Is this the turning point in this game? 76 needed in 58. 86/3

| Jos Buttler Wk | 22 | 9 | 3 | 1 | 244.44 |
|
3 OUT! TIMBER! What a response from Nortje. Knocks Buttler over. Full on off and middle, Buttler swings across the line. Completely misses the ball and it crashes into the stumps behind. Nortje is pumped after going for 16 in his first over. 37/1
|

| Steve Smith C | 1 | 4 | 0 | 0 | 25 |
|
4 OUT! CAUGHT! A clever bowling change from Shreyas Iyer yields the result. Smith's stay at the crease is short lived. A flat off break, lands on off and spins in, Smith looked to flick that but gets an uppish leading edge back to the bowler. It is just above Ashwin. He leaps and takes it with ease. 122 runs needed in 96 balls for Rajasthan. 40/2

| Sanju Samson | 25 | 18 | 0 | 2 | 138.88 |
|
11.4 OUT! BOWLED! Big wicket, Sanju Samson. Can Axar Patel turn this game around for Delhi? Can he be the gamechanger? Flatter ball on middle and off, the arm ball. Samson backs away and looks to cut but misses. The ball crashes into the woodwork behind. 97/4
|

| Robin Uthappa | 32 | 27 | 3 | 1 | 118.51 |
|
17.3 OUT! BOWLED! Uthappa goes. A big, big wicket for Delhi in the circumstances. Very full, almost a yorker, on middle. Uthappa moves to the leg side, comes down and looked to go big over covers. However, he cannot get the length of the ball right. Misses and it hits the stumps behind. 135/6

| Riyan Parag | 1 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 50 |
|
13.2 OUT! RUN OUT! Sloppy work from Rajasthan, real sloppy. It is a wicket, 5-down for the Men in Pink. Flatter ball on middle and off, Uthappa knocks it to the right of Patel. Yes and Parag steps out but then comes the no. Too late though, Patel gets there, collects the ball and flings in a throw at the non-striker's end. Hits the stumps and catches Parag well short. 110/5

18.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Some high quality death bowling this from Delhi. They have gone to their experienced bowlers - Rabada and Nortje - both have delivered. Full and in the blockhole outside off, Archer digs it out, uppishly but straight into the hands of Rahane at point. 138/7

| Shreyas Gopal | 6 | 4 | 1 | 0 | 150 |

20 OUT! CAUGHT! A brilliant win for Delhi. Tushar Deshpande has been excellent in the end. Full and well outside off, Gopal hits it uppishly towards backward point. The substitute fielder takes the catch. DELHI WIN BY 13 RUNS. 148/8
