Yesterday’s match in this year’s IPL was between Rajasthan Royals and Delhi Capitals.
Pathum Nissanka, who was dropped from Delhi in that match, was called back into the match.
Batting first, Rajasthan Royals posted a score of 225 for 6.
When Rajasthan’s innings was reduced to 12 for two, with their fast-paced opening pair both out, it was Riyan Parag’s 102-run stand with Dhruv Jurel that turned the tide of Rajasthan’s innings.
Parag scored a quick 90 off 50 balls and Jurel was dismissed for 42.
Donovan Ferreira then came in and scored 47 runs off 14 balls, with 2 fours and 6 sixes, at an attack rate of 335.71.
The target of 226 runs given to DC was not a small one, but with the start that Pathum Nissanka and Lokesh Rahul gave, it was not difficult. The two created a huge partnership of 110 runs.
Yesterday was a special day for Pathum Nissanka, as he scored his first IPL half-century yesterday. Pathum was dismissed while playing a brilliant innings of 62 runs.
Despite Pathum’s dismissal, Lokesh Rahul remained unbeaten on 75 runs in the 16th over, putting DC in an easy position to chase this target.
Finally, with Ashutosh Sharma’s quick innings and Tristan Stubbs’s help, Delhi Capitals managed to score 226 runs with 5 balls remaining and win the match easily by 7 wickets.
