DC beat RCB by 16 runs!

RCB needed a massive over but they could only manage only nine off it! DC qualify for the playoffs as they register their eight win. Second team after CSK to reach playoffs.

OUT! Washington Sundar c Shreyas Iyer b Rabada 1(2)

19.2: Sundar had not option and went for a straight shot but the chip had no power behind it as Iyer took the catch at long-on

WICKET! PANT TAKES A STUNNER!

Gurkeerat Singh c Pant b Ishant 27(19) 

Slog shot attempted by Gurkeerat but the top edge off bottom of bat went at lighting pace to Pant who managed to take the catch

OUT! DUBE DEPARTS!

Shivam Dube c Dhawan b Mishra 24(16)

Thigh-five from Dhawan as he takes the catch in covers. Dube went for a slog and failed to read the googly. Leading edge and catch for Dhawan.

OUT! Klaasen c Pant b Mishra 3(3)

Klaasen made a mess of the scoop shot! The scoop went on to hit his helmet and to the left of the keeper as Pant did well to cover the distance and take a diving catch.

OUT! ABD DEPARTS!

 de Villiers c Axar b Rutherford 17(19)

A typical ABD pull to deep mid-wicket off Rutherford but Axar did very well to time his jump to perfection just ahead of the fence to take the catch. Lost his composure a bit after landing but managed to avoid touching the rope.

WICKET! KOHLI GONE! 

Kohli c Rutherford b Axar 23(17)

Kohli can't believe this! He pulled the short ball from Axar straight into the hands of Rutherford at mid-wicket. A thigh-five from Rutherford to celebrate the wicket.

WICKET! RABADA STRIKES! 

Parthiv Patel c Axar b Rabada 39(20) 

The opening partnership is finally broken but PP has done his job. It was on off and Patel wanted to make use of the width but played the shot straight into the hands of point fielder. Axar did well to take the low catch.

OUT! Saini has the last laugh. Ingram's short burst comes to an end. It is the slower ball from Saini, he perhaps Ingram shaping up for the scoop, drags the length back and Ingram isn't able to adjust well, simple catch for Sundar at short fine. 

Ingram c Washington Sundar b Navdeep Saini 11(7)

OUT! Shreyas Iyer has thrown it away. He had done all the hardwork and looking for a big one he has found his opposite number at deep midwicket. Was just short of Good length and Iyer doesn't get it perfectly from the sweet spot. Easy catch for Kohli

Shreyas Iyer c Kohli b Washington Sundar 52(37)

OUT! Chahal turns one into Pant, who was looking to work the ball away through mid wicket but misses it. He is stuck in his crease and is rapped just under the knee roll. Three reds. It is an unsuccessful review from Pant, DC lose their third.

Pant lbw b Chahal 7(7)

FIFTY! Oh this is simply superb batting. Identical to previous one, perhaps doesn't get the same distance this time around but still the same result. Makes great use of his feet to play that stroke. He brings up his half-century with that wonderful shot.

OUT! Chahal has his man. The quiet overs did built the pressure and Dhawan perishes. Dhawan went for the sweep, but gets a top-edge to short fine leg.

Dhawan c Washington Sundar b Chahal 50(37) 

FIFTY! Dhawan brings up his half-century off 36 balls. It has been fantastic innings of aggressive batting. Was attempting the sweep behind square on the leg side, gets an inside edge onto his pad that rolls on the offside for a single

OUT! Edged and taken? Yes it has been safely held by Parthiv Patel. There is little doubt if the catch was grabbed cleanly or not and umpires referred it upstairs, but pretty straightforwad decision in the end. Cross seamed delivery from Yadav and Shaw trying to cut the ball gets a healthy edge. Goes at awkward height for Patel, he isn't sure to go reverse cup or point the fingers downwards. He has his body behind and with some assitance from the chest and throat he able to cling on. He is some discomfort but RCB have a breakthrough.
