The tournament is at a very Crucial stage Mumbai being the Champions the most times have been almost eliminated after losing seven consecutive games in the league. Today’s Clash was between Delhi and Rajasthan Two very strong teams competing for a win, both had strong sides and both came from a win in their recent matches.
The match was supposed to be a thriller because Wankhede was hosting it with a stadium full of Audiences. Delhi won the toss and elected to field first, Jos and Devdutt opened and they gave a century stand to the team and laid the platform for Samson.

After Delhi was Elected to field first the bowlers were having no clue about anything that was coming in the way of Butler he was smashing out of the park, he scored his third century of the league an absolute carnage by Butler. Everyone in the stadium was happy after the way he batted.
RR managed to get 223 on the board. It was above par, Shaw and Warner came into bat they started off really well, The Duo has been in a very good form they gave a solid start in the powerplay, even they were laying a foundation for the team, But Prasidh had other plans he smashed Prasidh for two consecutive fours on the third ball he followed the stance of Warner and took his nick and Samson took a dolly and Prasidh gave an aggressive send-off to warner.
The game was down to the wire Pant batted well, he was dropped by Chahal but on the very next ball Paddikal took a blinder to send back Pant, He had a very brilliant day Prasidh bowled the 19th over when 36 was required he bowled a wicket maiden the game-changer over of the innings, 36 was required from the last Powell the Caribbean was batting Obed was to bowl the over Powell smashed him for three-ball three sixes.
But the ball no 3 was looking like a No Ball the umpire did not give any signal Pant and the dressing room of Delhi were asking to go to the third umpire at least, the Umpire did not accept then Pant asked his players to come back to the dugout they were on their way but Watson sent them back, That Incident broke the Momentum and after three sixes RR won by 15 runs. Maxwell was very angry with this he took the incident to Twitter and tweeted “So umpires check no balls for front foot every ball, but can’t check a high full toss? Makes sense…
