Delhi Capitals (DC) rallied behind Shikhar Dhawan's (45 runs off 42 balls) gutsy batting display and a sensible finish from the likes of Lalit Yadav (22 runs off 25 balls) and Shimron Hetmyer (14 runs off 9 balls) to register a last-over six-wicket win against Mumbai Indians (MI) at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. This victory gave DC their third win in four games in IPL 2021 and propelled them to second place behind Royal Challengers Bangalore in the IPL Points Table. Chasing 138 runs for victory, DC continued to gather the singles and doubles on offer as Steve Smith (33 runs off 29 balls) and Dhawan's 50-run partnership steadied their innings after the early fall of Prithvi Shaw for only seven runs off five balls. This win also broke DC's five-game losing streak against MI, with their last defeat coming in the final of IPL 2020. Amit Mishra was the hero for DC with the ball, taking four wickets for 24 runs in his four overs. (SCORECARD)
