In a must-win game, Delhi Capitals win with a huge margin and kept the playoff’s chances in check. Delhi Capitals have won the toss and elected to bowl first. Rajasthan Royals haven’t got the perfect start as Jos Buttler fell early. Chetan Sakariya scalped his wicket. Surprisingly, Ravichandran Ashwin was promoted up the order and he responded with a beautiful fifty, his first. Padikkal is impressive too. Rajasthan hasn’t got the finishing they expected. Finally, RR has managed 160 in 20 overs.
Chasing a moderate score, Srikar Bharat got out for a duck. However, the partnership between Mitchell Marsh and David Warner turned out to be match-winning. The duo scored 144 in just 17 overs. Mitchell Marsh in particular took the attack to the opposition. He scored 89. David Warner along with Rishabh Pant finished things off. Delhi Capitals with this win jumped to fifth place and their playoffs chances are alive.
