END OF OVER:
20 | 7 Runs 1 Wkt | DC: 228/4 | RR: 11.40

  • Shimron Hetmyer7 (5b)
  • Shreyas Iyer88 (38b)
  • Andre Russell4-0-29-2
  • Varun Chakravarthy4-0-49-1

Lovely last over from Russell but DC have got 228. And their 228 is much bigger than KXIP's 226 because of the difference in the quality of the bowling attacks. But I have still got to say that DC didn't even stretch themselves to the fullest. So don't be surprised if we have another close match here

Russell to Hetmyer, 1 run, yorker, dug out to long-off for just the single. I am surprised they don't go for the extra run

Russell to Hetmyer, no run, this is excellent bowling. Beats him with an on-pace short ball. Appeals for a catch at the wicket. Not given. They review, looking for a bottom edge here. Nothing on the UltraEdge

Iyer won't get a hunrded

Russell to Hetmyer, no run, Hetmyer looks for a six first up, and is beaten by a quick bouncer

In comes Hetmyer, and they didn't cross over so he is on strike

Russell to Stoinis, OUT, slower ball, wide down leg, but Stoinis thinks he can clear short midwicket and take four. However, he ends up toe-ending this for a catch at short fine leg

MP Stoinis c Varun b Russell 1 (3b 0x4 0x6) SR: 33.33

Will Iyer see enough strike in this over to get a hundred? That shouldn't even be a thought in their mind, though. If Stoinis gets a six ball, he hits a six

Spin in the 19th over. But it is mystery spin. Here is Varun C

Stoinis walks in ahead of Hetmyer

Russell to Pant, OUT, oh he tries the helicopter and it crash-lands in the lap of long-on. Russell cramps him up with a full ball on the pads. Pant has to draw any power from that whip of the wrists. He doesn't succeed. Long-on takes the catch

RR Pant c Shivam Mavi b Russell 38 (17b 5x4 1x6) SR: 223.52

Russell to Pant, FOUR, full toss, and he has mis-hit it. And still it is placed between wide long-on and deep midwicket

Russell to Pant, SIX, Pant is only getting started here. Russell makes the mistake of bowling length. Pant is not holding himself back. Sends this to the roof behind wide long-on
17.1

Russell to Iyer, 1 run, and he draws a mis-hit immediately. Not a yorker, but not quite a half-volley. So he can't get under it properly. Takes a single to deep cover

And Russell is back. He has a tough job at hand

17 | 17 Runs | DC: 186/2 | RR: 10.94
