We come to the end of this exciting clash. Delhi got over the line and earn vital two points for themselves, lifting them to sixth place in the table. Rajasthan moves down to seventh place with this loss. Moving on, on the 3rd of May, we have Kolkata hosting Chennai at Eden Gardens. The action begins at 2000 local (1430 GMT), so do join in for that. See you folks then!
Rishabh Pant has been handed over the Man of the Match award for his scintillating knock in the first innings. His 69 off 29 was vital in his side getting to a daunting total, but more than that, it was the momentum his knock provided which swung the tide in his team's favour.
D'Arcy Short struggled a lot for the most part, but his onslaught in his fellow countryman's (Glenn Maxwell) over, where he scored three consecutive maximums, put the visitors back on track somewhat. Krishnappa Gowtham and Rahul Tripathi took it deep and tried to get their side over the line, but it just wasn't meant to be. Earlier in the evening, before the rain intervened, Delhi powered themselves close to 200 on the back of fine knocks from Prithvi Shaw, Shreyas Iyer and Rishabh Pant. The revised target then came in and Delhi got the job done with the ball.
Phew! What a thrilling end to this rain-hit encounter. Went right down to the wire and Rajasthan almost got a victory out of the jaws of defeat. With the revised target, the away side needed 151 to win in 12 overs and Jos Buttler got them away to the perfect start. Scored a fifty in absolutely no time and put Rajasthan in a good position to clinch this. But, after his departure, the wickets kept falling and the asking rate crept up quite a lot.

Trent Boult To Krishnappa Gowtham
He can't! Trent Boult holds his nerves. Been a terrific over from the Kiwi. Keeps it outside off on a full length, Gowtham lofts it over covers. Just the single and that's it. DELHI WIN BY 4 RUNS!

Trent Boult To Krishnappa Gowtham
DROPPED and FOUR! Rajasthan can still win this. Need one big hit. Full and in the slot, Gowtham lofts it high over mid-wicket. Iyer out in the deep, gets under the ball, tries to take it but it goes through his hand. One bounce and over the rope. Six needed of the last ball! Can Gowtham put this away?
Jofra Archer is out to bat.

W
Trent Boult To Rahul Tripathi OUT!
OUT! Tripathi is run out. All but over now? Surely? Or is there still a twist in the tale? Full outside off, Tripathi swings and misses and both batsmen once again take off for the run. Pant throws it back to Boult who takes the bails off at his end with ease.

Trent Boult To Krishnappa Gowtham
Excellent delivery from Boult. Spears it full and wide outside off again, Gowtham swings and gets an inside edge behind. Tripathi runs and his partner responds. The run is completed.
11.2
2
Trent Boult To Krishnappa Gowtham
Boult does well. Fires it full and wide outside off, away from Gowtham's arc who prefers the leg side. It's lofted over covers and two runs are taken as the men in the deep mop it up.

1
Trent Boult To Rahul Tripathi
Good length ball on middle stump, Tripathi gets down on one knee and sweeps it through square leg. Wants the second, but will have to settle for just one.

Trent Boult To Rahul Tripathi
Wide! Full and well outside off, Tripathi leaves it alone. It's across the tramline, so a wide is signalled.
Trent Boult to bowl the final over. He has 14 runs to defend.

Liam Plunkett To Krishnappa Gowtham
SIX! Krishnappa Gowtham is keeping the fight alive! What a hit, my man. He picks up the length early, it's a little shorter in length, so he swivels and pulls it over mid-wicket and sends it sailing into the stands.

Liam Plunkett To Krishnappa Gowtham
FOUR! Lucky runs but it's all the same. Short of a length, Gowtham swings and gets a top edge over the vacant slip cordon for a boundary.

Liam Plunkett To Rahul Tripathi
Fullish outside off, Tripathi slaps it aerially towards long on and crosses over.

Liam Plunkett To Rahul Tripathi
Not out! Cutter on middle and leg, coming in, Tripathi gets low to sweep but is hit on the pads. Big appeal goes up but the umpire says no. Plunkett runs in and takes the catch thinking there might be an inside edge. Rahul is out of the crease, so Liam looks to run him out but misses. Iyer wants to review, maybe thinking he can get his man here. Replays show there was no edge and the ball would have been missing leg stump.
Delhi use the review. Maybe for the lbw? Or the inside edge? Not sure. Both will be checked either way.

Liam Plunkett To Rahul Tripathi

Glenn Maxwell To Rahul Tripathi
Cut towards short third man where Mishra makes a decent stop moving to his right. Single taken. 30 needed in 12.

Glenn Maxwell To Rahul Tripathi
Quicker and shorter on off, Tripathi gets low and drags the heave through mid-wicket. They run hard and come back for the second. Boult fires the throw at the bowler's end, when he should have gone the other way. Pant is furious.
Krishnappa Gowtham comes in next.

W
Glenn Maxwell To D'Arcy Short OUT!
OUT! After a struggle, Short departs, but he's at least given his side a chance here. Full on the stumps, he tries to go on the leg side and clear mid-wicket. Gets a leading edge which spoons up at short third man. Avesh Khan there takes a simple catch.

Glenn Maxwell To D'Arcy Short
SIX! Three in three! Well, well, well... Is this the over Rajasthan pull things back? Short ball outside off, Short camps back and smacks this over the wide long off fence for a maximum.

Glenn Maxwell To D'Arcy Short
SIX! 12 in the first 2. Short finally finding his groove? Full and right in his arc, Short skips down and smokes it over long on for a flat biggie.

Glenn Maxwell To D'Arcy Short
SIX! Perfect start to the over for Rajasthan. Short ball on middle, Short slogs it high and handsome over square leg for half a dozen.
Glenn Maxwell back on.
