DC's three-game unbeaten run has come to an end tonight with a thrashing of 40 runs by MI! It's thier home ground and Delhi need to bat and bowl better in their backyard as they go forward. Meanwhile, MI have moved to the second spot in the table with tonight's win and have also moved closer to the playoffs spot.
That's it for tonight! We will see you tomorrow at 6.30 pm for the KKR vs RCB clash. Goodnight.
Hardik Pandya, MoM: I keep telling myself the same thing. I have never hit the ball as well I am doing right now. I have worked a lot in the nets and now it's all working out for me. I like to stick to the basics. Even in the death if you keep your calm and hope for bowlers to miss, you can hit hard. I am using my brain well, reading the wicket well in this season. I have five more games to go and then the play-offs, and I hope to keep going like this through the season.
Hardik Pandya is the man of the match
Rohit Sharma, MI captain: For the first two overs will played with thought this is 140 wicket. Eventually we got 10-15 more. Luckily for us we had wickets in hand and our power-hittiers could go out there and perform. I have played here enough to know and hence we had made up our mind (to bat first, after toss). It's something that he's (Rahul Chahar) been working on. He was part of the team last year, but never got to play. At some stage we wanted to get him in. He's shown the right kind of attitude, and he's very smart in terms of what he wants to execute. Those breakthroughs were good. He's very confident bowling to left-handers too. Jayant was a simple swap, because they had 3-4 left-handers in the top six. Cutting as well, once the ball is nice and hard, we would use a power hitter to come and exploit their spinners. The idea to send him at 3 was a good one. But the game plan changes according to the venue and the opposition. The top 3 remains, but 4, 5 and 6 remains flexible and we have made that clear with the batting group.
Shreyas Iyer: It's really important for us to win home games. Unfortunately we lost the toss and were outplayed in all three departments. We practise on slow pitches it's totally different at Kotla. We have to get used to these conditions. If after winning toss, we would have chased but we gave 20 runs more on this wicket. The wicket was really slow, and 150 would have been a manageable score. Those three overs (that cost 50 runs) were the gamechanger.

IPL 12 Match 34 DC vs MI at Feroz Shah Kotla Stadium in New Delhi: MI beat DC by 40 runs!

IPL 2019, SRH vs CSK, Today's Match Preview: Riding on the back three consecutive victories confident Delhi Capitals face third-place Mumbai Indians at Feroz Shah Kotla on Thursday.
Delhi Capitals are on a roll right now, they have won three of their last three matches and are second in the table with 10 points from eight matches. They would be looking to carry forward that momentum against Mumbai at their home ground.
It's a different Delhi from what we have seen in the past years. The young generation has made this a vibrant team. Their middle order rescued them against SRH in the last match and then the bowlers played a stellar role to defend 155. Prithvi Shaw has blown hot and cold and would look to get back to form against MI. In the bowling department, Kagiso Rabada will be MI's biggest threat. He ransacked SRH's batting line-up with four wickets.
MI, on the other hand, haven't had a consistent run. After the loss against RR, they bounced back to beat RCB. Their pace bowlers are the key, especially Malinga and Bumrah who have been brilliant at the death. The batsmen need to do much better. There is a lot of dependence on Hardik Pandya rescue acts. They would be looking for consistency while DC would look to continue the momentum. Expect a cracker.
