R Royals 146-5 (12 ovs) vs DD 196-6 (17.1 ovs) Scorecard


Delhi Daredevils pinch a close win as they beat Rajasthan Royals by 4 wickets in New Delhi on Wednesday.

In a rain-curtailed match, Rajasthan chasing 151 off 12 overs by DL method, got off to a good start thanks to Buttler's big hitting but they eventually lost wickets at regular intervals and could not keep up with the run-rate and fell four runs short.

10 needed off 2. 

Gowtham goes after the ball, Iyer drops him in the deep and that is a four.

6 needed off 1 and Gowtham can only manage to play the ball over deep extra cover for a single as they fall 4 runs short.

Rajasthan need 15 off the last over as Tripathi and Gowtham have responsibility of finishing the job as Boult comes to bowl the last over.

He starts with a wide and then bowls a slower one as Tripathi gets the single only.

Gowtham then gets under the ball and hammers it over covers for a couple.

Slower ball and Tripathi and Gowtham then just scamper for a single.

Yorker, goes to the keeper, Tripathi then runs blindly and is run-out as the keeper gives the ball to Boult as he takes off the bails to have Tripathi run-out.

Plukett comes back into the attack and Tripathi gets a four off the 2nd ball of the over.

After a dot, Tripathi then gets a single. 

Gowtham then swings his bat and gets a four over third man.

Last ball of the over is short and Gowtham pulls it over mid-wicket for a six.
