RR vs DC IPL 2021 Highlights: Late Chris Morris Blitz, David Miller Fifty Power Rajasthan Royals To Close Win Over Delhi Capitals
RR vs DC IPL Highlights 2021, Rajasthan Royals vs Delhi Capitals: Chris Morris executed his final assault in the death overs to help Rajasthan Royals claim their first win of IPL 2021.
Rajasthan Royals (RR) registered their first victory in this edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL), beating Delhi Capitals (DC) in the last over of the match by three wickets. Chris Morris justified his high price-tag in the late stages of the match when he hit Kagiso Rabada and Tom Curran for multiple sixes to take RR over the line. Earlier, RR started poorly, losing three wickets inside four overs, including skipper Sanju Samson and Jos Buttler in their pursuit of a 148-run target. David Miller put the RR train back on track with a gutsy fifty to bring the run-rate just in reach for Morris to execute his final assault. This was RR's first victory in this season, after losing out a close one to Punjab Kings (PBKS) in the opener. (SCORECARD)

That's all from the Live Blog here, tune in for another exciting IPL fixture tomorrow. Till then, goodbye and take care.
RR are struggling to keep up with the required run-rate. Interesting time for R Ashwin to come into the attack. RR 41/4 in 9 overs. Strategic timeout now.
RR lose their second, Jos Buttler, in the same over. Chris Woakes bowls a beauty to get the inner edge of Buttler. Pant takes a blinder behind the stumps. RR 13/2 after three overs.
DC finish at 147/8 at the end of their allotted 20 overs. Tom Curran's hard-hitting has helped save DC the blushes as RR will fancy themselves to chase the target. But let's not forget, the last two days have seen shockers with teams chasing relatively small targets. Game set-up for an exciting finish.
Jaydev Unadkat survives a weird fall at the run-up to finish his quota of four overs with three wickets and giving away only 15 runs. Incredible stuff!
