Root departs for 82, a sublime innings laced with gorgeous boundaries and he has put DC in a strong position 197/219.6 Gottim this time! No pace to work with as he pummels it aerially and gets the elevation but not the distance as deep cover came charging in from the rope and pouches it safely 222/3Extras16 (b 2, lb 3, w 11)TOTAL222/3 (20 Overs, RR: 11.1)Fall of wickets: 1-78 (Robin Uthappa, 8.5 ov), 2-197 (Joe Root, 18.4 ov), 3-222 (Rovman Powell, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR5.2 Another one bites the dust! Shorter ball, curling away in the corridor, he was not in a position to go for the big shot, gets a leading edge and it goes straight up high into the night sky, Uthappa lines under the skier and swallows it, fantastic catch and more pressure on MI 25/24.2 A bit fuller and width on offer, pressure was building up as he tried to break the shackles here went for the full-blooded hack through the off side but found the fielder Klaassen perfectly positioned at third man who gobbles it gleefully 25/15.6 Spears it on a back of a length outside off, he chops it back onto the stumps and the zingers are lit-up! Luqman is absolutely ecstatic and roars in celebration as the big fish Pooran goes without troubling the scorers. MI are going nowhere with the chase 26/315.6 Pitched it wide outside off and Pollard doesn't need second invitation, slammed it on the rise and it's a tough catch! Nicely taken by Chamika as Powell gets the prized scalp! Chamika made sure not to step outside the boundary rope, kept his eyes locked on the ball and clung onto it 144/418.2 Knocked him over! Nails the slow yorker right onto the base of the middle stump and the danger man Zadran goes for 30. That's surely the last nail in the coffin. 183/5Extras14 (b 4, lb 1, w 9)TOTAL206/5 (20 Overs, RR: 10.3)Fall of wickets: 1-25 (Muhammad Waseem, 4.2 ov), 2-25 (Will Smeed, 5.2 ov), 3-26 (Nicholas Pooran, 5.6 ov), 4-144 (Kieron Pollard, 15.6 ov), 5-183 (Najibullah Zadran, 18.2 ov)
