MI vs DC Highlights IPL 2020: Mumbai Indians Beat Delhi Capitals by Five Wickets

MI Win By Five Wickets! That's the reason why they lifted the title four times. 163 never looked a challenging target as Quinton de Kock and Suryakumar Yadav stole the show with staggering half-centuries. Though Delhi bowlers added some spice in the game - picking wickets in the end overs but the four-time champions eventually cross the line with two balls to spare. Krunal Pandya smashed the winning runs as Mumbai Indians topple Delhi Capitals at the pinnacke of IPL 2020 team standings.

A terrific comes to an end as Suryakumar Yadav fells prey to Kagiso Rabada. He went for another big shot but failed to get the elevation and Shreyas Iyer took a good catch at cow corner. Nonetheless, a staggering from Yadav. 33 needed from 30 balls. It should be a cakewalk for Mumbai now. Suryakumar Yadav c Shreyas Iyer b Rabada 53(32)

OUT! Big moment in the contest of the game as Quinton de Kock departs after scoring an impressive half-century. Spin does the trick again as Ravichandran Ashwin strikes. This game is indeed not going anywhere. De Kock c Prithvi Shaw b Ashwin 53(36)

After the early exit of skipper Rohit Sharma, Quinton de Kock joined forces with Suryakumar Yadav and the duo have attacked the opposition. De Kock has already smashed three giant sixes and is looking in great touch while Yadav has also started his innings in positive fashion. On the other, Delhi Capitals are desperate for another wicket.

Staggering death bowling by Jasprit Bumrah! He never allowed Shikhar Dhawan and Alex Carey to shift gears as Delhi Capitals could only post 162/4 despite having wickets in hand. Dhawan indeed impressed with his unbeaten 69-run knock but he should have done some more damage in the end overs. With skipper Rohit Sharma, Quinton de Kock, Kieron Pollard and Pandya brothers in the ranks, MI must back themselves to cross the line but Kagiso Rabada, Ravi Ashwin and Axar Patel fighting with the ball, it will not be a cakewalk for defending champions. Do join us in the latter half of the game. 

Shikhar Dhawan gets his first fifty of the season and he'll be a relieved man. The southpaw now has to shift gears as the game goes to the death overs. Meanwhile, Marcus Stoinis is the new man on the crease and he 'll  again aim to give his team a late flourish. 

OUT! Finally a sigh of relief for Mumbai Indians as Shreyas Iyer departs. Krunal Pandya breaks the crucial partnership and brought his side back in the contest. The DC went for a big shot off a flatter delivery but didn't get the required elevation as Trent Boult takes a good catch at deep mid-wicket. Third one down for Delhi. Shreyas Iyer c Boult b Krunal Pandya 42(33)

Shreyas Iyer and Shikhar Dhawan have build up a 50-run stand after losing two early wickets. At halfway mark, Delhi Capitals are 80/2 and the  stage is set for some fireworks. With the likes of Alex Carey and Marcus Stoinis in the ranks, Iyer and Dhawan must open their arms to guide their side to a mammoth total. 

OUT! After playing some delightful shots in the initial overs, Ajinkya Rahane departs as Krunal Pandya strikes in his first over. It was a straight delivery which foxed Rahane and smashed his pads. Impressed from the LBW appeal, umpire raises the index finger as Delhi have lost two now. Mumbai Indians in command. Rahane lbw b Krunal Pandya 15(15)

After the early departure of Prithvi Shaw, Ajinkya Rahane came at the crease and is looking determined to make a mark in his debut for Delhi Capitals. Despite not playing professional cricket since long, Rahane didn't look rusty at all as he smashed the likes of Trent Boult and James Pattinson for glorious boundaries. On the other hand, Shikhar Dhawan hasn't got much of strike and he'll be aiming to register a significant score.

OUT! What an emphatic start by the defending champions! Just after hitting a four, Prithvi Shaw perishes as Trent Boult continues his dominance in powerplay overs. It was an incoming-fulliish delivery which Shaw failed to drive and Krunal Pandya takes a good catch at covers. Prithvi Shaw c Krunal Pandya b Boult 4(3)

The players are out in the middle as the action gets underway. Prithvi Shaw and Shikhar Dhawan are the two openers for Delhi Capitals while Trent Boult starts proceedings with the ball.

Some big decisions by DC management as Ajinkya Rahane comes in and its not Shikhar Dhawan who goes out. Its Rishabh Pant instead.
