So, chasing 155 on this wicket will not be the easiest task for Rajasthan. Delhi have a really good bowling lineup and expect them to fight tooth and nail. The chase should be an exciting one so stay tuned for that!
Chetan Sakariya is there for a chat. He says that it was almost 38 to 39 degrees and it was really hot. Adds that it was hotter than any other stadium. Goes onto say that he tried to bowl slower balls and he is working on it. Tells that they got wickets at regular intervals. Says that there is pressure on Delhi and the target is chaseable. Tells that he and Mustafizur Rahman keep on talking and he learns a lot from him.
Rajasthan were really good with the ball at the start. They did not leak many runs and used the slower ones to good effect. Tyagi and Sakariya took 1 wicket each at the top to put them in a good position. There was a partnership in the middle phase but Rahman broke that and Tewatia took the wicket of Iyer to push Delhi back. In the death overs, Hetmyer was looking dangerous but Rahman struck again and to get the big wicket. He was the pick of the bowlers as he took 2 wickets for only 22 runs. Sakariya also took 2 wickets but it was a good performance by all their bowlers.
Delhi did not have the best of starts as they lost Dhawan and Shaw quite early. Pant and Iyer then played well in the middle phase to rebuild but they both lost their wickets while looking to up the ante and score boundaries. Hetmyer hit a few big flows in the death overs but did not bat till the end and lost his wicket in the 17th over. In the end, they ended up with a par score on the board.
A good show by Rajasthan with the ball has restricted Delhi to a par score. This isn't the biggest total but Delhi have a great bowling lineup and the pitch is not the easiest to bat on. Rajasthan were really good with the ball and did not let the Delhi batters to set free.
