What's next? Since it's a double header weekend, it means double the treat for you all. Action now shifts from Delhi to Ahmedabad, where the Gujarat Titans lock horns with their neighbours, the Rajasthan Royals, at the Narendra Modi Stadium. The game has already commenced with the Royals opting to bat first. You can switch to that match for all the updates. From here, we sign off, only to meet again. Cheers!
Dominant DC make two in two - The Capitals wrap this one up quite comfortably against Mumbai Indians. The win takes them to the top of the table with 4 points, ahead of Punjab Kings due to a superior net run rate. They stay at home for their next assignment against Gujarat Titans on Wednesday, 8th April at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT). As for the Mumbai Indians, it has been one win and one loss so far. They will head back to the drawing board and look to come back stronger when they face Rajasthan Royals in Guwahati, on Tuesday, 7th April at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT).
PLAYER OF THE MATCH - Sameer Rizvi, for his enterprising knock of 90 off 51 balls, receives the award. He is also handed over the Orange Cap. Says that he has worked hard on addressing his weaknesses, particularly against fast bowlers, and adds that the effort he put in over the past year is now paying off. He mentions that he tries to play according to the situation, taking his time early in both innings he has played. He further details that watching the ball closely till the end is something he feels has brought him a lot of success in playing with freedom. He also says that once you spend some time at the crease, things start to get easier. Wraps up by saying that performing well in the IPL can lead to more opportunities, and he hopes to carry on the good form.
The victorious captain of Delhi Capitals - Axar Patel says that it is important to be flexible in this format. Adds that they read the situation and make their moves accordingly, which has worked for them. Mentions that Ashutosh is definitely a fine batter, but you also need to know which players can deliver at which moment. Mentions that this is a good headache for him to have and shows their bench strength. Says that the key is to take one game at a time, and they want to keep improving and avoid mistakes that they made last season.
... Time for the post-match Presentation ...
The stand-in captain of Mumbai Indians - Suryakumar Yadav reflects on the loss. He says that it was a decent wicket, they thought it would be on the slower side but they were 15-20 runs short. Adds that he does not want to take anything away from the DC bowlers and says they batted really well in the second innings as well. Praises Rizvi for his outstanding knock, coming in at 7/2 and batting like that, he never let them get back in the game. Mentions that the pitch did not change much, they just couldn't execute their plans like the Delhi bowlers managed to do. Shares that they thought 180-185 would have been a good total, but he and Dhir got out at the wrong time. Ends by saying that they will take the learnings from this game and come back stronger in the next one.
162 wasn't enough in the end - Earlier, Mukesh Kumar did the initial damage with the ball, and the MI batters never quite found top gear. Rohit started promisingly but couldn't cut loose, falling to a short, wide delivery. SKY swept well, rotated strike smartly, and compiled a well-controlled, nicely paced fifty before a skiddy Ngidi delivery caught him lbw just when MI needed him most. Axar and Vipraj kept things tight in the middle phase, and Natarajan and Ngidi peppered the tail with bouncers, yorkers, and slower balls to choke the finish with smart variations. It was looking like MI would fall well short, but Santner and Bosch played crucial cameos down the order, pushing the total past 160.
The Sameer Rizvi show crashes the MI party - Sameer Rizvi shifted gears and went into overdrive, taking apart the bowling with effortless power. He stitched together a vital 78-run stand with David Miller, though Miller contributed just 11, underlining how dominant Rizvi was in that middle phase as he dismantled MI’s plans with a free-flowing 90 off just 51 balls. Amid all the carnage, Jasprit Bumrah still managed to be the most economical but went wicketless, and the lack of support and regular breakthroughs eventually proved to be MI's undoing.
A useful alliance to set the base - Delhi Capitals found themselves in early trouble, losing KL Rahul and Nitish Rana inside the Powerplay to slip to 7/2. Nissanka refused to let the pressure build, counter-attacking to drag DC back into the contest. The bowlers, particularly Santner, kept things tight with disciplined lines, but Nissanka dropped on 41, and Rizvi played the situation smartly with their 66-run partnership before the former was eventually dismissed. DC were 73/3 at halfway, with still a lot to do, matching MI's score at the same stage.
DC roar to a famous win - A dominating display by the hosts, Delhi Capitals, to get two wins in two games to set the marker early in a long season. This victory will feel even sweeter, having come against a strong Mumbai Indians side. Both wins have come while chasing, but more importantly, their bowling and batting have looked perfectly in sync in both.

Fuller and on off, Tristan Stubbs pushes it to covers for a single.
A huge standing ovation for Sameer Rizvi as he walks back to the dugout. Unfortunate for him that he couldn't get to triple figures, which would have been the cherry on the cake. Tristan Stubbs walks in at number 6.

Corbin Bosch To Sameer Rizvi OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT! A knock of the highest order finally comes to an end. Corbin Bosch goes fuller and on off. Sameer Rizvi clears his front leg and looks to loft it with a straight bat but his bat turns in his hands at the point of contact. He knows that he has mishit that one and throws his head back in disappointment. The ball goes high in the air towards long off, where Tilak Varma settles under it and takes a fine catch. Rizvi walks off to a huge applause, but will be disappointed not to be there till the end.

Corbin Bosch To Sameer Rizvi
Right in the blockhole, on middle. Sameer Rizvi opens up his body and jams it out wide of long on for a brace. He moves into the 90s now. 150 UP FOR DELHI CAPITALS!
STRATEGIC BREAK! The game has far drifted from the visitors now. For the second game in a row, Bumrah goes wicketless. He didn't concede many runs this time around and kept it really tight, finishing with 0/21 in his 4 overs. But Mumbai Indians haven't been able to pick regular wickets to stall the momentum DC have with them. With just 14 required from 24 balls, the hosts are in a comfortable position to get through the line. Rizvi needs 12 to get to his century as well. Corbin Bosch (2-0-32-0) is back on after the break.
