DEL won by 10 runs
8:01 PM IST and Local Time : Delhi have come out victorious against Saurashtra and the margin of runs is only 10. Delhi spinners have ruled the roost in the middle overs and took the control of the game there.
Saurashtra won the toss and sent Delhi to bat first. Delhi got off to a good start as Yash Dhull found regular boundaries in the powerplay and continued to bat well post the powerplay phase. He scored 47 runs from 30 balls with 7 fours and a maximum. His effort was replicated and bettered by his skipper Nitish Rana. Rana took his time to get settled in the crease and then he went hammer and tongs against the bowlers. He hit 3 fours and 7 sixes on his way to score 76 runs from 41 balls. Ayush Badoni scored 33 runs from 25 balls and a couple of good cameos from Himmat Singh and Anuj Rawat took the score to 207/4 at the end of 20 overs.
For Saurashtra, Jaydev Unadkat, Chirag Jani, Dharmendra Jadeja and Parswaraj Rana took a wicket each.
Coming to chase the high target of 208, Saurashtra got off to a good start as Harvik Desai took the bowlers on. He scored 32 from 19 balls before giving a catch to Nitish Rana off Suyash Sharma. Prerak Mankad got off the mark with a boundary and was playing his shots well but the issue was no batter got a going at the other end. Vishvaraj Jadeja and Jay Gohil had a tough time there in the middle as they failed to time the ball properly.
Mankad got to his fifty in 27 balls but got out in the next ball. His innings was filled with 3 fours and as many sixes. Debutant Parswaraj Rana took 23 balls to get to 24 only and that's where the team management decided to retire him out and sent Luckyraj Vaghela in. Vaghela played a fine cameo off 23 runs from 7 balls and Ruchit Ahir scored 39 off 21 balls to take the score to 197/5 and Saurashtra fell 10 runs short of victory.
For Delhi, Suyash Sharma was the star of the show. He took 3 wickets for 20 runs. Digvesh Singh Rathi took a wicket for 31 runs.
