7.45pm The broadcasters have cut to the second game of the night, between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Chennai Super Kings, which you can follow right here. It's a wrap from us for this game, however. We'll have information on who won the Player of the Match award, etc, as soon as we find out. Good night!
Mustafa Moudi : "Kuldeep Yadav is slowly becoming Rashid Khan - Always does well with the Ball, if fails sometimes then destroys with the bat !!"
Rifky : "Hasn't been the best day on the field⊠but LSG continue to find ways to scrape through just like GT"
Deenu: "Watched ball by ball in Delhi innings..Delhi perhaps lost in his last 11 ball 2 from Pant."
7.35pm After four hours and five minutes, we have a winner. A very LSG-like performance, with their immense depth of all-round resources put to very good use. With Rishabh Pant at the crease for a long period, for instance, they could only use Krunal Pandya for one over, but they were able to do that because they had so many other bowling options.
The star for them tonight is the hugely impressive Mohsin Khan, who finishes with figures of 4-0-16-4, his wickets including those of Warner, Pant and Powell. He's our MVP too, with a massive 140.93 impact points. KL Rahul and Deepak Hooda played key innings with the bat, but I can't see either of them getting the Player of the Match award ahead of Mohsin.
13 off 2 now. Two sixes and we have a Super Over.
And that brings Axar on strike with 13 needed off 4. How is his hip feeling? Deep backward point, deep point, long-off, long-on, deep midwicket. Stays over the wicket.
15 off 5... Mid-off comes into the circle, not sure who's dropped back.
21 to win off the last over. Capitals have an 8.10% chance of winning this. And it'll be Stoinis to deliver this last over. Deep backward point, sweeper cover, long-off, long-on, deep midwicket. Over the wicket to Kuldeep.

Round the wicket again.
All those twos he's run have caused Axar to twinge a muscle near his right hip.
Dinesh: "Delhi need a Tewatia here!!!"
Edwin : "I'm following cricket for 20years. I have never heard of asymmetric field dimensions in the international matches. Are these pitches used only in the IPL? Or am I missing something?" -- The same four venues are hosting all the league games, so multiple pitches on the square are being used out of necessity. If the pitch is closer to the edge of the square, you'll end up with asymmetric dimensions.
Back over the wicket.
Around the wicket to Axar.
36 off 12. Here's Chameera, from over the wicket. The next over will have to be delivered by either a spinner or by Stoinis.
Calvin : "Am I the only one who thinks the 3rd umpire Paschim Pathak's voice resembles so much of Sachin's." --- 23,478 feedbackers have said exactly the same thing today.

LSG's bowlers have made very good use of the asymmetric field dimensions over the last few overs.
