David Warnerc Rahul Chahar b Liam Livingstone 0 1 0 0 0

0.1

Liam Livingstone to David Warner, OUT! CAUGHT! What a start this is for Punjab! First delivery and the dangerous David Warner is gone! Livingstone floats this one, outside off, it bounces a bit as well. Warner tries to drive it but gets a thick outside edge and Rahul Chahar at point takes the simplest of catches. An electric start to an electric game. Actually, it was Sarfaraz Khan who was all set to take the strike but Warner decided at the last moment that he will take the strike and pays a heavy price here. Punjab are not complaining here though and the smiles on their faces show how big a wicket this is!

4.5

Arshdeep Singh to Sarfaraz Khan, OUT! CAUGHT! The excitement is over as Sarfaraz holes out! He was struggling a bit against Arshdeep Singh! Touch fuller and around middle. Sarfaraz Khan looks to loft it straight down the ground but mistimes it and the ball goes towards long off. Rahul Chahar from mid off, tracks back and catches it. A short but fiery innings come to an end.

Mitchell Marshc Rishi Dhawan b Kagiso Rabada 63 48 4 3 131.25

18.2

Kagiso Rabada to Mitchell Marsh, OUT! TAKEN! Good catch from Rishi Dhawan and this is a big wicket for Punjab! This could make a difference of 10-15 runs to the final score. A very full delivery on middle. Marsh flicks it aerally towards deep mid-wicket. He does not get the desired distance and Rishi Dhawan comes running in from the deep. He dives forward and takes a very fine catch.

Lalit Yadavc Bhanuka Rajapaksa b Arshdeep Singh 24 21 1 1 114.29

10.6

Arshdeep Singh to Lalit Yadav, OUT! CAUGHT! A really soft dismissal! Short and outside off, was really slow. Yadav first thinks to leave it alone but at the very last moment throws his bat at it and spoons one straight to Bhanuka Rajapaksa at backward point who takes a simple catch. This might not be a bad thing for Delhi as they have some big hitters to follow.

Rishabh Pant (C) (W)st Jitesh Sharma b Liam Livingstone 7 3 0 1 233.33

11.6

Liam Livingstone to Rishabh Pant, OUT! STUMPING! Liam Livingstone gets the better of Pant this time after going for a six! Liam flights this again but drops it a touch short and makes it spin away. Pant puts his skates on to go downtown but misses and Jitesh Sharma, behind the stumps, whips the bails off in a flash. Pant tries to get back but the replay shows he was nowhere near his crease.

Rovman Powellc Shikhar Dhawan b Liam Livingstone 2 6 0 0 33.33

13.3

Liam Livingstone to Rovman Powell, OUT! TAKEN! Another one bites the dust and Delhi are falling apart here! Liam Livingstone again makes the ball to turn, on a length and around middle and turning away. Powell tries to loft it as he gets on the back foot but without much conviction and it balloons up in the night sky and to mid off. Shikhar Dhawan runs in from deep, covers a lot of ground and takes a sharp catch. Thigh-five as we have seen so many times this season from Shikhar.

19.3

Arshdeep Singh to Shardul Thakur, OUT! CAUGHT! Shardul Thakur holes out and Arshdeep Singh gets his third wicket! A low full toss on middle. It was there to hit but Shardul Thakur does not time his hit and the ball goes straight into the hands of Harpreet Brar at long on. Easy catch and can Punjab restrict Delhi under 160 here?

3.5

Anrich Nortje to Jonny Bairstow, OUT! CAUGHT! Anrich Nortje breaks the opening stand and gets rid of dangerous Jonny Bairstow! He bangs it short on middle. Jonny Bairstow goes for the pull shot but does not try to keep it along the ground. The ball goes in the air but straight to Axar Patel near the deep backward square leg fence. He takes the catch and Punjab lose their first.

Shikhar Dhawanc Rishabh Pant b Shardul Thakur 19 16 3 0 118.75

5.6

Shardul Thakur to Shikhar Dhawan, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Dhawan was struggling here to play his shot. Thakur serves short of a length and around middle, it was well directed and Shikhar Dhawan was cramped as he tries to ramp it away. The ball was too close to playing that shot and it takes a faint edge before meeting the mitts of Rishabh Pant. Delhi will be very happy with how the Powerplay has gone. Punjab are 54/3 at the end of the sixth over.

Bhanuka Rajapaksac Anrich Nortje b Shardul Thakur 4 5 1 0 80

5.4

Shardul Thakur to Bhanuka Rajapaksa, OUT! CAUGHT! Thakur strikes! This is on a length and on middle, was a slower one. Bhanuka Rajapaksa is too early as he looks to heave it and gets a leading edge. The ball goes to Anrich Nortje who takes a simple catch at backward point. 107 needed in 86 balls.

Liam Livingstonest Rishabh Pant b Kuldeep Yadav 3 5 0 0 60

7.6

Kuldeep Yadav to Liam Livingstone, OUT! STUMPING! There was a feeling this was coming as Kuldeep Yadav was mixing it fantastically here. Yadav flights this one, on a length and around off, this one spins a bit. Liam Livingstone comes down the track and looks to go downtown but connects with thin air only. Rishabh Pant has all the time to remove the bails as Liam Livingstone didn't even try to get back, he just started to walk away.

Mayank Agarwal (C)b Axar Patel 0 2 0 0 0

6.3

Axar Patel to Mayank Agarwal, OUT! TIMBER! What a beauty from Axar Patel! An arm ball from Patel, on a length and slanting around middle and leg. Mayank Agarwal tries to punch on the back foot but the ball skids through and goes past his bat to rattle the stumps. 100th wicket for Axar Patel in the Indian T20 League. Delhi right on top here.

Jitesh Sharma (W)c David Warner b Shardul Thakur 44 34 3 2 129.41

17.4

Shardul Thakur to Jitesh Sharma, OUT! TAKEN! Excellent stuff from David Warner! A knuckle ball, full and outside off. Sharma tries to clear long off but fails to get much height on it. David Warner runs forward, dives and plucks it out of the ground. Superb work from Warner and as Jitesh Sharma walks back, it should be the game for Delhi.

Harpreet Brarb Kuldeep Yadav 1 2 0 0 50

9.3

Kuldeep Yadav to Harpreet Brar, OUT! BOWLED! THROUGH THE GATE! Harpreet Brar didn't pick that all! A googly from Yadav, on a length, slower and around off. Harpreet Brar leans across to defend but leaves a big gap between the bat and pad. The ball takes a slight bit of bat and sneaks through to disturb the stumps. Punjab are 6 down and Delhi are all over them.

Rishi Dhawanb Axar Patel 4 13 0 0 30.77

12.4

Axar Patel to Rishi Dhawan, OUT! BOWLED! Axar Patel keeps it simple, wicket to wicket and gets rewarded! Patel bowls it full on off. Rishi Dhawan tries to make something there and goes for the sweep shot. He misses and the ball knocks over his off stump. This is looling very bad for Punjab now, they still need 78 from 44 balls and have just three wickets in hand.

Kagiso Rabadac Rovman Powell b Shardul Thakur 6 2 0 1 300

17.6

Shardul Thakur to Kagiso Rabada, OUT! TAKEN! A length ball, outside off. Rabada again swings his bat but it goes off the higher part of the bat and Rovman Powell takes a simple one at long off. This is a big wicket as Kagiso Rabada has the ability to clear the fence but it looks quite difficult from Punjab from hereon.
