9.42pm Javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra may not have won a medal at the Doha Diamond League yesterday, but he did manage to earn the respect of his competitors and a new national record in the process. Read more on ESPN.in

Raghu: "People say after winning under19 world cup you can become either Kohli or unmukt Chand..but I say you can become prithwi shaw...even Kohli also not utilised as much this guy's doing in first few opportunities"

9.33pm From 90 for 1 after 9.2 overs, Daredevils would think their total is a little half-baked. Rashid and co. strangled their batting, but 163 is still a good score on this pitch. As the game's progressed, batting on this surface has looked difficult. If SRH win tonight, it'll be the highest score they've chased in IPL 2018. We'll be back in a bit with the 2nd innings in a mo. Remember, it's mandatory for Daredevils to win tonight.

Saravanan: "Scoring 163 against SRH is scoring 180-200 against other teams in IPL 2018. Hope DD bowlers do good job too."

Sid Kaul: "Thinking of bowling ball by ball. The pitch is helping our bowlers because the wicket is slightly damp. Allows us to change up. Our batsmen are capable of chasing this down. The orange headband I wear is the only coloured band I have. I wear white in domestic cricket (laughs)"

Kumar to Shankar, 3 runs, hip-high full toss on leg stump, band that's been flicked off his pads to the backward square boundary. Not a no ball, but they still manage to take three. Delhi Daredevils finish on 163!
19.5
4
Kumar to Shankar, FOUR, offcutter outside off, but just too wide this time. He shuffles across to the off side, and cuts it in the gap. Deep point does well to get to the ball, but just can't parry it back
19.4
1
Kumar to Christian, 1 run, short outside off, and Bhuvi's also taken the pace off this. Christian flat-bats it over Shankar, but lands well short of long on
19.3
1
Kumar to Shankar, 1 run, follows that up with a yorker! Right on off stump, and all Shankar can do is dig it away towards point
19.2
6
Kumar to Shankar, SIX, down on one knee, and over long on! Overpitched outside off, and Shankar shanks it into the stands. Perfect spot for him to free his arms

Varun: "After Shaw's wicket in the 10th over, Delhi have hit just 1 six and 2 fours. Speaks a lot. They don't have anyone apart from Pant, Iyer and Shaw to bat"

19.1
2
Kumar to Shankar, 2 runs, back of a length outside off, and that's been worked off his hips to Dhawan at deep midwicket. Gently played by Shankar, which allows them to return for the second

MoM: "SRH bowlers are like dementors. They sniff the life out of batting sides"

1
Kaul to Shankar, 1 run, full and wide outside off, but Shankar gets his bat to ball and taps this towards point. Would've gone for four if it wasn't for Sandeep's diving effort near the 15-year circle
18.5
1
Kaul to Christian, 1 run, muscled to long off! But men patrolling the deep. Full outside off,and that was mistimed over Kaul's head
18.4
1
Kaul to Shankar, 1 run, full just outside off, and that's been driven to Williamson at cover. The non-striker is stranded midway, and KW aims at the stumps. He misses the wicket, and Kaul - in front of the stumps - can't grab it either

Hanumall: "By the 'Win the 18th over, win the match' principle, SRH seems to have edged ahead again."

18.3
2
Kaul to Shankar, 2 runs, slower ball, and short outside off. Checks his pull, but still manages to hit it well to the cow-corner boundary. Rashid is excellent in the deep

Shahed: "The famous SRH squeeze in effect!"

18.2
1
Kaul to Christian, 1 run, full outside off, and the pace is taken off. Driven towards cover, but with no real timing

AmitK: "Saha is reqlly good with catching but not so deft with stumping, not really quick (when benchmark is Dhoni you gotta do good there)."

18.1
1
Kaul to Shankar, 1 run, late inswing into his toes, as the yorker is flicked to the backward square boundary

Mangesh: "SRH showing their class here. Have pulled back things very well without panicking. One of the many reasons why this Franchise has started garnering increasing number of Fans. #NotJustCSK&RCB #OrangeArmy"

Githin george: "What on earth was pant thinking?? It was rashids last over ,he could have just let it go and take on the pacers!! This is inexperience!!!"

Shakib Al Hasan to Christian, 2 runs, full just outside off, and nudged off the front foot towards cow corner. Hit gently enough, and that allows them the second run
17.5

Shakib Al Hasan to Christian, no run, arm ball on off, and zipping straight through. He came down the ground to try and slog it, but the ball stayed low and crept under his bat. Hits his back leg
17.4
1
Shakib Al Hasan to Shankar, 1 run, full just outside off, and Shankar's drive takes a thick edge. Chipped over Shakib to long off
17.3
1
Shakib Al Hasan to Christian, 1 run, good length on off, and worked towards the leg side. They walk across for the run
17.2
0
Shakib Al Hasan to Christian, no run, fair play! Full on off, and that was drilled straight into the non-striker's stumps. The umpire wants a replay in case the non-striker is run out, but Shakib says he hasn't touched the ball. Good to see

0
Shakib Al Hasan to Christian, no run, outside off and angling into the batsman. Mistimed towards cover

more spin at the death...

Rashid Khan to Christian, 1 run, overpitched on leg stump, and Christian pushes it into the gap in front of midwicket. He'll keep strike

Rashid Khan to Pant, OUT, big appeal! And that's the slow finger of death. He's reviewing, but looks half-hearted. Was short on middle, and Pant just couldn't connect with the pull. The ball snuck under his bat, and hit his back leg. Looks kinda high though. Could miss the stumps, but alas! Would've clipped top of middle stump.
