That could have been a nail biter match. DELHI CAPITALS neat the 5 times champion CSK by 25 runs. While batting first Delhi capitals lost their 1st wicket on the very 5th bowl of the innings , but this does not affect DC that much as ABHISKEK porel continuous to hit big shots from the other hand , and KL rahul also supported him and make an partnership of 50+runs for the second wicket and making an overall 54 runs score in the powerplay.
CSK took few wickets ,but triston stubbs’s decent finishing took delhi to a respectable total of 183.
In the answer, CSK came to bat in the second innings and their batting exposed like from day 1 , rachin ravindra went for 3 runs this time , followed by DEVON CONVOY 13(14) and captain RUTURAJ 5(4) ,while struggling VIJAY SHANKAR gives a fight back with 69 runs in 54 balls and M S DHONI , this time came earlier but cant do anything special , make 30 for 26 balls.
