9.25pm Right then, 210 is the target for Delhi Capitals. Join Sudarshanan in just a bit for the start of the chase.

9.20pm LSG looked set to get to 250 or thereabouts with Pooran and Marsh going bonkers. But they lost 48 for 6 in the last 38 balls of the innings and it took two sixes off the last two balls of the innings for them to get past 200. Kuldeep, Starc, Mohit and Axar were all excellent in the second half of the innings to stop LSG's charge. Pooran was dropped early and made the most of it, while Marsh was devastating at the top against his old team. Now LSG have a fairly inexperienced bowling lineup with a tough task on hand.

Marsh: "We batted really well. Obviously we would have liked a little more. Credit to Delhi, I thought they pegged us back quite nicely but Miller finished it off nicely. It's a beautiful wicket, and a small ground and the batters had a good time. Life's good mate, no bowling (laughs)."
