Mukesh Kumar to Tilak Varma, out Caught by Abishek Porel! That's a well judged catch by Abhishek Porel. Tilak Varma plays a lovely slogsweep towards deep mid-wicket, but Porel in the deep places himself under the skier and takes it inches before the boundary cushions. Tilak departs after playing a fine knock. Tilak Varma c Abishek Porel b Mukesh Kumar 59(33) [4s-6 6s-3]

Mohit Sharma to Naman Dhir, SIX, fantastic shot! A full toss at the stumps, Naman Dhir goes down on his knee and scoops it towards fine leg for half-a-dozen. 200 definitely on the cards

Mohit Sharma to Naman Dhir, 1 run, yorker length delivery outside off, Naman Dhir squeezes it in front of covers, challenges Axar and completes the single with a dive. The throw came in at the bowler's end, however, didn't hit the stumps
18.2
Mohit Sharma to Tilak Varma, 3 runs, slower delivery outside off, Tilak Varma slices it towards short third man where a couple of fielders collide while attempting a catch. Ashutosh and Mukesh are the two fielders who collided. The physio is having a check on them, and Ashutosh Sharma is going off the field along with the physio. Hopefully nothing serious as the Capitals would need him later with the bat

Mitchell Starc to Tilak Varma, FOUR, an expensive over by Mitchell Starc. Full and wide outside off, Tilak Varma reaches out for it with a slice and manages to clear the infield at backward point
17.4
Mitchell Starc to Naman Dhir, 1 run, Axar Patel almost takes a stunner! A length delivery by Mitchell Starc that was smashed towards long-off by the batsman. Axar near the boundary times his jump to perfection, grabs the ball, however, he has to let it go as he wasn't in complete control. He overhauls the boundary due to the momentum, but he manages to get rid of the ball before that. Easy catches have been dropped in the tournament, this could have been one of the best catches of the season

Mitchell Starc to Naman Dhir, FOUR, superb shot! Was a really full ball by Mitchell Starc, almost a yorker, but Naman Dhir plays a powerful whip all along the turf. The fielder in the deep sprints across and puts in a dive, but the timing was good enough to beat him
17.2

Mitchell Starc to Naman Dhir, FOUR, short ball on leg, Naman Dhir pulls it over short fine leg, clears the infield and adds four runs to the tally. MI need more of these boundaries for Naman and Varma with only a few overs remaining
17
Mohit Sharma to Tilak Varma, no run, pitching outside leg and the batsman survives. Was a very full length delivery that beat the batsman and rapped him on the pads, however, it was pitching well outside leg. The onfield decision has to be overturned. It's NOT OUT and Tilak survives

Mohit Sharma to Tilak Varma, 1 run, fifty for Tilak Varma! A full toss outside off and Tilak Varma drills it to long-off for a single. Raises his bat to acknowledge the crowd and his team-mates in the dugout.. Can he take MI past the 200-run mark? We shall find out soon..

Kuldeep Yadav to Tilak Varma, FOUR, Varma moves into the 40s! This was on the shorter side and Tilak Varma dragged it towards deep mid-wicket.

14.1
W
Vipraj Nigam to Hardik Pandya, out Caught by Stubbs!! One brings two. A tossed up delivery by the spinner and Hardik Pandya takes on the aerial route. Miscues this towards long-off as he loses his shape and the MI captain has been dismissed early today. No Pandya special as he makes his way back to the pavilion. The DC wrist-spinners are having a good time bowling in tandem. Hardik Pandya c Stubbs b Vipraj Nigam 2(4)
13.1
W
Kuldeep Yadav to Suryakumar Yadav, out Caught by Mitchell Starc!! Kuldeep Yadav gets the big fish, breaks the partnership! A tossed up delivery around off, Suryakumar Yadav shimmies down the wicket and chips it towards long-off. Starc placed in the deep takes a comfortable catch. Got off to a good start, but fails to convert it into a formidable score does SKY. Suryakumar Yadav c Mitchell Starc b Kuldeep Yadav 40(28) [4s-5 6s-2]
12.4
4
Vipraj Nigam to Tilak Varma, FOUR, total miscommunication between two fielders and the chance goes down! Tossed up just outside off, Tilak goes for a big shot but miscues it high in the air. Stubbs and Fraser-McGurk get across from long-on and deep midwicket respectively. There seems to be a mix-up between them, Stubbs eventually tries going for it but he's run in too far. The ball ends up going over him and lands inside the ropes
12.2
4
Vipraj Nigam to Suryakumar Yadav, FOUR, flat outside off, back of a length, and Surya still manages to drag the sweep shot to the boundary! Hits it through midwicket and the fielder in the deep has no chance as he's too square
12.1
6
Vipraj Nigam to Suryakumar Yadav, SIX, flat on off and middle, good length ball, Surya gets low and gets enough on the slog-sweep to clear the leg-side boundary. It's his go-to shot against spin and he uses it to good effect here
12
6
Mohit Sharma to Tilak Varma, SIX, superb hit down the ground! He's offered the full face and timed it to perfection! Back of a length around off, Tilak keeps his shape nicely and punches it through the line. Such is the tming that it goes all the way

4

11

Axar to Tilak Varma, FOUR, top-edge over short fine again! There was one from Surya earlier in this over, and this time it's Tilak who gets low. Flat length ball fired in on leg, he gets low to sweep and the edge balloons over short fine
10.5
Axar to Suryakumar Yadav, 1 run, sliding in with the arm, good length ball, Surya taps it from the crease into the point region
10.3
Axar to Suryakumar Yadav, no run, DC review for LBW! It's a fast arm-ball that slides in sharply with the angle from around the wicket, brushes the back pad first and then hits the bat as Surya looks to punch through cover. He was cramped for room there. But ball-tracking says it's missing leg with the angle
10.2
4
Axar to Suryakumar Yadav, FOUR, full ball angled in on leg, Surya gets low for a full-blooded sweep and it flies over short fine. Might've gone off the top-edge but doesn't matter
9.1

Kuldeep Yadav to Suryakumar Yadav, FOUR, swept hard and swept for four! Quite full just outside off, Surya gets low and smashes it behind square to beat Ashutosh in the deep
8.2

Kuldeep Yadav to Rickelton, out Bowled!! Told you it was going to be a challenge for Rickelton! This man is absolutely deadly against left-handers, especially if they're not picking him. His flight, his control, and his confidence has been incredible since the Champions Trophy. Tossed up around off, dips on a good length and Rickelton goes for the cut. He hasn't picked the googly at all. It snakes in and takes out the middle stump. Shades of that Rachin Ravindra dismissal from the CT final. Rickelton b Kuldeep Yadav 41(25) [4s-5 6s-2]
6.5
6
Vipraj Nigam to Rickelton, SIX, Rickelton is outfoxed by the line but still manages to clear the ropes! He backs away to the leg-side, Nigam probably sees him and slips in the googly very wide of off. He somehow reaches out and flat-bats it down the ground to clear long-off. Small boundaries here help his case and it goes all the way
6.1
4
Vipraj Nigam to Suryakumar Yadav, FOUR, 91kph, good length ball around off, not much wrong with the delivery but Surya boshes it through square leg with a powerful sweep
5.4
6
Mukesh Kumar to Suryakumar Yadav, SIX, there he goes straightaway! A gift from Mukesh down the leg-side, and Surya wastes no time as he sends it over the fine leg boundary with the trademark whip. That's gone a long way back!
5.1
4
Mukesh Kumar to Rickelton, FOUR, short of length delivery just outside off, angling away from over the wicket, Rickelton gets into a good position and manages to pull it against the angle through midwicket
5
W
Vipraj Nigam to Rohit, out Lbw!! Review taken for LBW as Rohit misses a sweep! That looked really close, and ball-tracking confirms the same as it shows three reds. Darted in on a good length, slides in with the angle and goes under the bat as he looks for the sweep. It hits him on the back leg, and technology shows that it would've crashed into leg. Another failure for Rohit and another wicket in the tournament for the impressive Nigam. Rohit lbw b Vipraj Nigam 18(12) [4s-2 6s-1]

Mukesh Kumar to Rickelton, FOUR, this is back of a length and Rickelton has still driven it on the front foot through extra cover! Angling away outside off, he presses forward, hits it on the up and times it beautifully
3
4
Mitchell Starc to Rohit, FOUR, too full and hammered! It's angling away outside off, Rohit goes after it and carves it over extra cover. Expensive over from Starc with 19 off it!
2.4
6
Mitchell Starc to Rohit, SIX, top edge and six! Full and fast just outside off, Rohit goes for a premeditated scoop but is in no control at all as it flies over the keeper off the edge
2.3
4
Mitchell Starc to Rohit, FOUR, oh lovely timing! That'll make Rohit feel better. Back of a length delivery angling away from off, he doesn't go too hard, just opens the face and caresses it through point
2.1
4
Mitchell Starc to Rickelton, FOUR, short of length delivery angling down leg, Rickelton tries riding the bounce to work it around the corner and manages to glance it very fine. It runs away and beats fine leg easily
1.5
6
Mukesh Kumar to Rickelton, SIX, pulled into the crowd! Short of length delivery across off, Rickelton takes it on and deposits it many rows back over square leg. Was probably a cutter and it sat up nicely for him
0.4
4
Mitchell Starc to Rickelton, FOUR, half-volley outside off, swinging away and Rickelton times it beautifully again as he drives through extra cover. Starc was guilty of being too full against Salt the other evening, and here again he's given away a couple of freebies
0.3
4
Mitchell Starc to Rickelton, FOUR, blistering timing from Rickelton! Full on the pads, loose delivery and he flicks it delightfully through midwicket. Goes to the boundary in no time
