OUT! Ish Sodhi strikes once again. He gets rid of Colin Ingram. Ajinkya Rahane takes the catch. Can Delhi Capitals press the panic button here? Ingram c Rahane b Ish Sodhi 12(23)

Halfway through and Delhi Capitals need 46 more runs to win. Rishabh Pant is batting on  23 and giving him company is Colin Ingram. Delhi nearing their win.

OUT! Against the run of play, Shreyas Gopal picks a wicket. He removes Delhi skipper Shreyas Iyer. Is this the opening Royals were searching for? S Iyer c Livingstone b Shreyas Gopal 15(9

End of Powerplay overs. Shreyas Iyer smashed Ish Sodhi for two back to back sixes. That relives the Delhi camp. Rishabh Pant also picked a boundary on the last ball. DC now need 70 runs in 84 balls.

OUT! Two in two for Ish Sodhi. He first removes Shikhar Dhawan, who was caught between long-on and long-off. And then on next ball, Prithvi Shaw dragged one back on to the stumps.

Varun Aaron with the second over and he gives away nine runs from it. This is turning out to be a good start for Delhi Capitals. Meanwhile, Royals need to pick wickets early on to stay in the game.

Shikhar Dhawan and Prithvi Shaw are the Delhi Capitals' openers. Decent start this for Delhi as six runs come from the first over. Gowtham bowled the first over for Royals.

That's the end of Rajasthan Royals' innings. Riyan Parag takes RR to 115. What a knock by Riyan, he completes his maiden IPL fifty with a six. And becomes youngest to register a half-century in IPL. Riyan finishes with 50 off 49 balls. Do join us for DC's chase.

OUT! Ish Sodhi is caught near cover. He gets the leading edge and Amit Mishra takes the catch. Royals seven down now. First wicket for Trent Boult. Ish Sodhi c Mishra b Boult 6(11)

Riyan Parag is showing his teammates how to bat on this wicket. The youngster is batting on 32 and is in no mood to give up.  He and Ish Sodhi have added 28 thus far for the eighth wicket.

Five overs remaining and with just three wickets in hand, Royals' first task will be to bat for full 20 overs. Riyan Parag will have to face the majority of the strike. His partner Ish Sodhi is handy with the bat as well. 

OUT! Another one for Amit Mishra as Royals' downfall continues. Krishnappa Gowtham holes out to long-off. Ishant Sharma takes the catch. K Gowtham c Ishant b Mishra 6(6) 

OUT! Two in two for Amit Mishra. First Shreyas Gopal was stumped and then Stuart Binny was caught behind. Amit Mishra almost had is hat-trick as well but Krishnappa Gowtham was dropped. Royals in all sort of trouble now.

Runs not coming easy for Royals at the moment. Delhi bowlers are maintaining the pressure. RR need something special from here to bail them out of the trouble.

Halfway through and Delhi Capitals continue to dominate the terms. If Royals manage to get close or past 150-run mark from here, then it is a going be a very good total for them. The pitch is on slower side and will help spinners later on.

Shreyas Gopal has been promoted up the order and along with him it is young Riyan Parag in the middle. Royals need a big partnership here to bail themselves out of this initial trouble.

OUT! What a start this for Ishant Sharma. His third wicket. Mahipal Lomror is caught behind. It is getting worse and worse for Rajasthan Royals. Lomror c Pant b Ishant 8(3) 

OUT! Disaster this for Rajasthan Royals. Sanju Samson is run out! Miscommunication between the batsmen and that results in the run out. Both of them were stuck at non-striker’s end. Samson run out (Prithvi Shaw) 5(8)

OUT! Ishant Sharma strikes again. Liam Livingstone is bowled. This is turning out to be a good start for Delhi Capitals, the ball kept tad low and went through Livingstone’s defence.  Livingstone b Ishant 14(13)
