While Kohli and Salt stole the spotlight, it was Josh Hazlewood’s subtle brilliance that turned the tide. His clever variation on a slow pitch removed the well-set Jaiswal with a deceptive wide delivery. The LBW dismissal disrupted RR’s momentum and flattened their finish. Hazlewood’s impact, though quiet, was instrumental in keeping RCB’s chase hassle-free—a classic example of effectiveness without fanfare.
The fourth over proved decisive when Sandeep Sharma dropped a sitter off Phil Salt. Salt, on 37 at the time, went on to hammer 65 off 33. Had the catch been taken, it might have shifted momentum in RR’s favour. Instead, it allowed Salt to launch a batting onslaught that sealed the match for RCB.

The turning point of the DC vs MI clash came in the 16th over when KL Rahul, looking to steer Delhi Capitals to a thrilling win, fell to Karn Sharma for 15. At 160/5, with just 46 runs needed off 27 balls and five wickets in hand, Delhi were in control. But Rahul’s mistimed shot triggered a dramatic collapse, with DC losing their last five wickets for just 33 runs. Despite Karun Nair’s heroic 89, Delhi folded for 193, handing Mumbai Indians a narrow 12-run win in a high-scoring thriller at the Arun Jaitley Stadium.
In a nail-biting clash between Delhi Capitals and Mumbai Indians, Karun Nair emerged as the unsung hero despite ending on the losing side. Making a comeback to the IPL after three years, Nair showcased elegance and resilience with a stunning 89 off 40 balls, his first fifty in seven seasons. He singlehandedly revived Delhi’s chase after an early setback, keeping hopes alive amid regular wickets. Though DC ultimately fell short by 12 runs, Nair’s vintage knock stood out as a moment of personal redemption and silent brilliance in a match dominated by flashier performances from Mumbai’s top order.
