For Delhi Capitals, the story has been different. A cameo from 'Impact Player' Abishek Porel saw the team post a challenging total but a below-par bowling performance coupled with a dropped chance when the game was heading towards a nervous finish saw them fall short of the finish line. A big positive for them has been the return of Rishabh Pant, who has battled injuries from a devastating car accident and made a return to competitive cricket after more than a year. His return with the bat was short-lived, as he scored 18 runs off 13 balls but fans were surely delighted to see him back on the cricket field again. Trent Boult Breaks Devdutt Padikkal’s Helmet With Fiery Bouncer, Dismisses Him Next Ball During RR vs LSG IPL 2024 Match (Watch Videos).
