Delhi get their second win of the season. One which they desperately needed and this could very well get their campaign back on track. Plenty of positives for them to take. On Saturday, we have Chennai hosting Mumbai in their new home in Pune. It will begin at 2000 local (1430 GMT). Do join us for that. Cheers!

Shreyas Iyer is announced as the Man of the Match for his stunning 93 off 40 deliveries. He smashed 10 sixes and 3 fours and remained unbeaten 7 short of a century. Had there been a couple of more balls to play, he would have surely got there with the way he was playing.

After putting in a good show with the bat, the home side continued in the same vein with the ball. Trent Boult, Glenn Maxwell and Avesh Khan provided the early breakthroughs and Kolkata were 4 down within the Powerplay itself. It was more or less game over at that point. Yes, Andre Russell and Shubman Gill did try to resurrect the chase and kept some hope alive, but the risk was always big as there was no recognized batsman left after them. The moment the latter got run out, it all went downhill from there and Russell's blistering knock wasn't enough. A clinical performance from Delhi, their third biggest win in the League (in terms of runs), one which they would be proud of.

A much-needed win for Delhi. They finally looked like the team they were meant to going by how they went at the auction. Shreyas Iyer starts his leadership reign on a high. His team completely outclassed the opposition in all departments. The toss was the only thing that went Kolkata's way. After putting Delhi into bat, the hosts got off to a blazing start as Munro and Shaw (who got a fifty) were firing away. It continued on with skipper Iyer playing the knock of his life. His 73-run stand with Maxwell turned the tide in the hosts' favour as they got past the 200-mark for the first time this season.

19.6

Trent Boult To Mitchell Johnson

FOUR! Ends the innings with a couple of boundaries, but to no avail in the grand scheme of things. DELHI WIN BY 55 RUNS! A big one for them. Johnson flicks it over the mid-wicket area and finds the fence. Smiles return in the Delhi dugout.

19.5

Trent Boult To Mitchell Johnson

FOUR! Too full, Johnson creams the drive through the covers and sends it across the boundary line. Good timing on that.

19.4

Trent Boult To Kuldeep Yadav

Works it through mid-wicket and takes the single available to him.

19.3

Trent Boult To Kuldeep Yadav

Yorker just outside off, Kuldeep backs away, throws his bat at it but can't connect again.

19.2

Trent Boult To Kuldeep Yadav

Short ball just outside off, Yadav is a bit sloppy in playing at the ball so misses it.

19.2

Trent Boult To Kuldeep Yadav

Wide! Way down the leg side, easy call for the umpire to make.

19.1

Trent Boult To Mitchell Johnson

Fired very, very full on the stumps. Johnson looks to drill this away but gets an inside edge down to fine leg for a single.

Trent Boult to bowl the final over.

18.6

Glenn Maxwell To Kuldeep Yadav

Some comic relief out in the middle provided by Amit Mishra. Yadav gets an inside edge past the leg stump. Mishra from short fine leg chases after it, dives to stop it and half-does it. The ball is stuck under his body, so he gets it out and tosses it to his mate who has come to assist him. Lovely stuff. Two runs taken.

18.5

Glenn Maxwell To Kuldeep Yadav

The batsman has been hit on the pads as he tried to sweep that one.

18.4

Glenn Maxwell To Kuldeep Yadav

FOUR! On the pads, Yadav works it fine down the leg side with a sweep. Beats short fine leg and gets a boundary.

18.3

Glenn Maxwell To Mitchell Johnson

Drifting in on middle and leg, slogged over mid-wicket. One run taken.

Kuldeep Yadav is the last man in for Kolkata.

18.2

Glenn Maxwell To Piyush Chawla OUT!

OUT! That's a superb catch from Munro in the deep. On the stumps, Chawla slogs this over square leg. It's travelling flat and towards Colin Munro, who judges the ball well before leaping and taking it above his head.

18.1

Glenn Maxwell To Mitchell Johnson

Works it through mid-wicket and takes one run.

Glenn Maxwell to bowl once more.

Avesh Khan To Mitchell Johnson

Low full toss on off, Johnson gets an edge through the vacant slip cordon, down towards third man for a single.

Mitchell Johnson is the new batsman.

17.5

Avesh Khan To Andre Russell OUT!

OUT! Russell's blistering knock comes to an end. Avesh Khan is right on the money. Excellent yorker on middle stump, can't get any more perfect than that. Russell makes room, shows all three stumps as he tries to hit. Misses and his furniture is rocked in all directions. All but over now for Kolkata, if it already wasn't.

17.4

Avesh Khan To Andre Russell

The batsman goes for the pull but misses it completely.

17.3

Avesh Khan To Andre Russell

Short ball, Andre backs away to pull. Not where he intended it to, as he hits it down to long on.

17.2

Avesh Khan To Andre Russell

Low full toss from around the wicket, Russell slogs it aerially through mid-wicket. It goes to the man in the deep but the big man doesn't take the run again.

17.1

Avesh Khan To Piyush Chawla

The batsman guides it to third man. They pick up a single. 76 needed to win off 17.

Avesh Khan back on.

Liam Plunkett To Andre Russell

Bouncer on middle and leg, Russell wildly swings in an attempt to connect but misses.

16.5

Liam Plunkett To Andre Russell

No wide given! Hmm... Interesting. Down the leg side, Russell makes room by moving down leg, then decides to move out of it. Looks at the umpire but doesn't get anything from him.
