- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.3 a big appeal for caught-behind. Given not out but Capitals want to review it. Was a length ball outside off, Wade jumped across and looked to lap it over the keeper's head. There is some noise as the ball passes the batter and the UltraEdge confirms it's of the bat. Wade walks back for 1 2/117.1 length ball around off, goes for that half-pull again. It made good sound off then bat but it was a slower one, which means he didn't get enough power behind it and it turns out to be a dolly for Axar at deep midwicket 145/46.1 and he strikes straightaway. Tossed up on a length around off, Shankar goes for the slog sweep but is early into it. All he gets is an inside edge that deflects onto the stumps 44/213.6 fuller around off, Hardik goes down the ground but doesn't get the required elevation. Still it's hit hard and pops out of Powell's hands at long-on but he keeps his calm and catches the rebound 109/319.2 length ball outside off, looks to go over extra cover but ends up slicing it. The extra-cover fielder runs sideways and takes it over his shoulder 168/519.5 fuller and angling across. A slower one 121kph. He goes for the slog sweep but it's a cutter at 121kph. He ends up slicing it up in the air and Axar settles under it at cover 170/6Extras7 (b 1, lb 2, nb 1, w 3)TOTAL171/6 (20 Overs, RR: 8.55)Fall of wickets: 1-2 (Matthew Wade, 0.3 ov), 2-44 (Vijay Shankar, 6.1 ov), 3-109 (Hardik Pandya, 13.6 ov), 4-145 (Shubman Gill, 17.1 ov), 5-168 (Rahul Tewatia, 19.2 ov), 6-170 (Abhinav Manohar, 19.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.1 banged into the pitch, and Shaw plinks his pull out to deep backward square leg! 138kph, a hint of nip in off the seam, and Shaw can only top-edge it out into the deep, the bat turning in his hands. Vijay Shankar settles underneath it and takes a steepling catch, and Delhi have lost both of their openers 32/21.1 chipped to short midwicket, Hardik strikes with his first ball! Seifert admonishes himself as he trudges off. On a good length, Seifert looked to nudge it into the leg side but it stopped on him, and hit the splice of the bat. It looped up into the leg side, and Abhinav took a straightforward catch to his left, in tight. Early strike for Gujarat, Hardik's first IPL wicket since 2019! 8/14.5 feathered through to Wade, Lockie has two in his first over! Hard length into the pitch, Mandeep backs away and looks to cut it away but only manages to get a thin edge on it. He was looking to target the shorter off-side boundary, but Ferguson cramped him for room with a back-of-a-length ball 34/314.1 plinked to deep backward square leg! 145kph, banged into the pitch, and Pant is stuck in two minds. It nips away off the seam - or perhaps it's even a very quick offcutter. Pant tries to drag it across the line, but isn't sure whether he's looking to play it away for a single or commit to the shot fully. He mistimes the pull, which loops up agonisingly into the leg side... where Abhinav settles underneath it! What a game Lockie Ferguson is having, 3 for 12 in 2.1 overs. And great call from Hardik to bring him back! 118/511.4 chance for a run-out at the bowler's end. Shankar has stepped on the stumps as he loops to whip the bails off, but only one of them is initially dislodged. He takes the other one off as Lalit dives at full stretch to make his ground and this will be given out. Pant nudged a length ball off his hip straight to Abhinav Manohar, the man at square leg. Mix-up between the two batters, and Lalit had to scramble back. Pant is confused as to what's happened and is in discussion with the umpires, but Lalit has to trudge off 95/417.2 on a length, angling in and skidding through. Smashes Powell on the back thigh and the finger goes up! He has to review, and does so. He was looking to swing him away down the ground but was beaten. Looked like an offcutter, cramping him for room. Smashing into the stumps, and the on-field decision is upheld! Gujarat closing in on a second win. 143/814.5 strangled down the leg side, Lockie has FOUR! Perhaps the worst ball he's bowled all night, a 130kph offcutter, angling a long way down the leg side. But Axar flaps at the pull and gets a thin edge through to Wade, who takes a sharp low catch to his right. Gujarat have their sixth wicket 126/615.6 full googly, smashes him on the front pad and up goes the finger!. Shardul has little choice but to review. Plants the front foot and plays across the line. No bat involved, hits him on the shin. Impact in-line, and hitting leg stump halfway up! Rashid strikes with the final ball of his spell, and Gujarat are closing in... 134/717.3 nicks him off! Back of a length, angling in, and Khaleel backed away, looking to steer it away through point. He could only manage to tickle an outside edge through to Wade, and Shami has two in two balls 143/9Extras11 (lb 4, w 7)TOTAL157/9 (20 Overs, RR: 7.85)Fall of wickets: 1-8 (Tim Seifert, 1.1 ov), 2-32 (Prithvi Shaw, 4.1 ov), 3-34 (Mandeep Singh, 4.5 ov), 4-95 (Lalit Yadav, 11.4 ov), 5-118 (Rishabh Pant, 14.1 ov), 6-126 (Axar Patel, 14.5 ov), 7-134 (Shardul Thakur, 15.6 ov), 8-143 (Rovman Powell, 17.2 ov), 9-143 (Khaleel Ahmed, 17.3 ov)
