Player Of The Match
  • 19.6

    Arshdeep Singh to Lokesh Rahul. Reverse Swing-In full toss, off stump moves in front sweeping, mis-timed to deep square leg for 1 run. That brings us to the end of the Delhi Capitals' innings, and what a commanding performance it has been! They've piled up a massive total, led by a majestic 152 from Lokesh Rahul and a blistering 91 off just 44 balls from Nitish Rana. The Punjab Kings, however, were far from their best in the field sloppy moments and dropped catches proved costly, allowing Delhi to capitalise and build momentum. Now the spotlight shifts to Punjab's batting strength: can their powerful lineup rise to the occasion and chase down this towering target? Join us for the run chase shortly.
