Khaleel is back to bowl his last. Two back to back wides from Khaleel. They do not help SRH. Not the kind of effort Kane wants from his team, win or lose. Pant with a couple of stunning shots for four and a six. DC have almost sealed it now. Delhi Capitals need 9 runs in 18 balls.

After 16 overs,Delhi Capitals 110/2 ( Shreyas Iyer 39 , Rishabh Pant (C) (W) 17)

Bhuvi back on. Iyer miscues the pull but Pandey fails to reach to the flying ball from mid-wicket despite the dive. Pant pulls one for six to ruin all the effort done by Rashid in last over. But Rashid continues to put everything in his effort in the field, saves three on the boundary with a stunning dive. 11 off the over. Delhi Capitals need 25 runs in 24 balls.

After 15 overs,Delhi Capitals 99/2 ( Shreyas Iyer 37 , Rishabh Pant (C) (W) 8)

Rashid back on to complete his spell after the final time out of the game. Good stuff from the master spinner. Just three off the over.

Rashid completes his spell with figures of 1 for 26.

After 14 overs,Delhi Capitals 96/2 ( Shreyas Iyer 36 , Rishabh Pant (C) (W) 7)

Sandeep back on. Almost a suicidal run out for Pant. He was looking to get back to the batting crease without looking where the ball was headed. Pandey misses the timber or else Pant was walking back. Top shots from Iyer for two consecutive boundaries. Time out called. Delhi Capitals need 39 runs in 36 balls.

After 13 overs,Delhi Capitals 85/2 ( Shreyas Iyer 25 , Rishabh Pant (C) (W) 7)

Khaleel continues. A leading edge off Pant’s bat goes to mid off on two bounce and Pant saw an opportunity to steal a single there. Warner was quick on the ball but Pant was quicker, dived to save himself even if the ball did not hit the stumps. Five off it. Delhi Capitals need 50 runs in 42 balls.

After 12 overs,Delhi Capitals 80/2 ( Shreyas Iyer 22 , Rishabh Pant (C) (W) 5)

Holder back on. Pant has walked in to bat. The first ball he faces Pant dances down the track and swings big, misses it completely. No one in leg side in the deep, so that temptation was always there. Pant though manages to hit one straight down the ground for a boundary to open his account. Delhi Capitals need 55 runs in 48 balls.

After 11 overs,Delhi Capitals 73/2 ( Shreyas Iyer 20 , Rishabh Pant (C) (W) 0)

Rashid continues. The partnership between Iyer and Dhawan for second wicket had crossed the fifty mark before the opener mistimed one to lose his wicket. Rashid with the wicket. Just four off it and a wicket. Delhi Capitals need 62 runs in 54 balls.

After 10 overs,Delhi Capitals 69/1 ( Shikhar Dhawan 41 , Shreyas Iyer 17)

Sandeep continues. Two extra-ordinary shots from Dhawan in the over for boundaries. He looks like a man on a mission after getting the T20 World Cup snub. Two high quality shots on both sides of the wicket. 10 overs gone, nine off the tenth over.

After 9 overs,Delhi Capitals 60/1 ( Shikhar Dhawan 33 , Shreyas Iyer 16)

Rashid Khan continues. A top class delivery from Rashid that missed Iyer’s outside edge by inches. Next ball, Iyer went big, smashed the leggie for a massive six on the leg side. Good contest this. Nine off the over.

After 8 overs,Delhi Capitals 51/1 ( Shikhar Dhawan 32 , Shreyas Iyer 8)

Finally we see Sandeep Sharma with the ball. Saha has come upto the stumps. That means he will be slower and straighter. One can question why such a brilliant swing bowler is brought on so late with this plan in place. But before that, let’s see how he fares here in this role. Did trick Dhawan once in this over with a lovely slower. Six off the over. Time out called.

After 7 overs,Delhi Capitals 45/1 ( Shikhar Dhawan 27 , Shreyas Iyer 7)

Holder back on. Quick single off the first ball as Iyer tapped the ball on the off side and called for it. Dhawan stepped out again but did not have the room to play his shot. Loose third ball and Dhawan made good use of it. SRH had done well to keep DC slow in this chase but now the run-rate is slowly rising.

After 6 overs,Delhi Capitals 39/1 ( Shikhar Dhawan 22 , Shreyas Iyer 6)

Rashid Khan, right-arm leg break, comes into the attack now, an over before the powerplay ends. Two off the first two balls before Dhawan goes big with the slog sweep. The target has come down under the 100 mark. SRH need a breakthrough here.

After 5 overs,Delhi Capitals 29/1 ( Shikhar Dhawan 14 , Shreyas Iyer 4)

Bhuvneshwar back on and he does well in this over. Iyer plays three dots on the trot before taking a single. Dhawan takes a risky single on the last ball to make it two from the over. Good comeback by Bhuvi after being hit for two boundaries in his first over.

After 4 overs,Delhi Capitals 27/1 ( Shikhar Dhawan 13 , Shreyas Iyer 3)

Change in bowling as Jason Holder comes in to bowl. Top shot from Dhawan in the over, stamping his authority in the chase. Two balls later, he stepped put to play another shot on the off side but hit it straight to the fielder. Seven off the over.

After 3 overs,Delhi Capitals 20/1 ( Shikhar Dhawan 9 , Shreyas Iyer 0)

Khaleel continues. Shaw took advantage of two loose balls, and collected boundaries but the left arm pacer made a good comeback to eventually remove the opener. DC one wicket down as Iyer joins Dhawan in the middle. Eight off the over and a wicket.

After 2 overs,Delhi Capitals 12/0 ( Prithvi Shaw 3 , Shikhar Dhawan 9)

Bhuvneshwar Kumar, right arm medium fast, to bowl from the other end. Two boundaries in the over for Dhawan in contrasting fashion. First a flick for four, other a mistimed shot for a boundary down the ground. Dhawan won’t mind as he got off to a shaky start but the boundaries will give him confidence going further into this chase. Eight off the over.

After 1 over,Delhi Capitals 4/0 ( Prithvi Shaw 3 , Shikhar Dhawan 1)

Shaw off the blocks quickly, collects single off the first ball. Second ball came in sharply from Khaleel. Had bounce as well, hit Dhawan on the gloves. Dhawan tries a on the rise drive but misses the connection. Mistimes the fourth ball over the bowler’s head for a single. Shaw finishes the over with a two on the leg side. Four off the first over.
