RCB is finally leading….from the bottom. Still it’s leading🫣😂😂

KL Rahul: We were 15-20 short, should've capitalised to get 180. There was a bit of help for seamers, odd-ball was keeping low and Kuldeep put the brakes on our batting group. We fought till the end. McGurk, the new guys when they come in, was very unknown. We've watched a lot of videos of him but he hit the ball really well, credit to him. We walked in with the same kind of mindset, assess what the good areas, what pace works on this wicket and execute as well as we can. We got Warner, and a couple after the powerplay. We were in the game till the 10th over, then a drop catch and then Rishabh-McGurk took it away from us. In hindsight, can wonder if we could've done something differently [with Pooran's batting position]. Not much spin for Axar, so I thought Nicky P with the shots he has can put the opposition under pressure. We knew they had to bowl their spinners in that phase. Mayank is not too bad, he looks good, feeling good but we also want to make sure we don't rush him back in too early. He's young, we need to protect his body. He's itching to go, we just have to pull him back a little, maybe a couple of more games, before he comes back.

LSG’s home domination is curbed. Their streak of defending totals comes to an end. The hunters have been hunted, and they have been stung by the new, potent venom from South Australia sprinkled with a bit of fearless bite from the leader of the team that features three tigers on their emblem. Chasing 167, Delhi didn’t get the best of starts as Warner copped a blow to his wrists and then chopped one back onto his stumps. However, that brought the youngster Jake Fraser-McGurk to the crease and he got off the mark with two sixes in the IPL. Fraser-McGurk was well supported by Prithvi Shaw who scored six fours in the powerplay, but holed out trying to attack Ravi Bishnoi. There came a lull post the powerplay as LSG slipped in four quiet overs, with Bishnoi leading the charge. Fraser-McGurk was struggling for timing, and the skipper Rishabh Pant took the mantle on himself. He attacked Bishnoi for a four and six, and that titled the complextion of the game.

Next over, Fraser-McGurk hit a hat-trick of sixes against Krunal Pandya, and the next over from Yash Thakur also went for plenty of runs. The 22-year-old notched up a fifty on IPL debut, but couldn't stay till the end as he sliced one to deep point off Naveen-ul-Haq. Rishabh Pant played a real captain's knock to take the pressure off the debutant, but he too couldn't stay till the end as he was stumped dancing down the track against Bishnoi. However, DC never lost Hope and they managed to get through the line with almost two overs to spare. Rishabh Pant and co. are back to winning ways, the LSG juggernaut have been stopped.
