6.1: WICKET! P Shaw (39) is out, b Harpreet Brar, 64/1
OUT
A lovely ball from Harpreet who gets one to grip from middle and off and clip the off peg to remove a dangerous looking Shaw. He really has the Midas touch at the moment.
Prithvi Shaw has scored less than 20 runs in just two out of his EIGHT innings this season.
Seasoned opener Shikhar Dhawan led the 167-run chase from the front as Delhi Capitals registered a comfortable seven-wicket win over Punjab Kings in Ahmedabad.
Dhawan scored an unbeaten 69 off 47 balls – his third half-century of the season – as Delhi crossed the finish line with 14 balls to spare.
The victory also took Delhi to the top in the points table as they now have 6 wins in 8 matches.
Dhawan’s (380) knock also took him past KL Rahul (331) as he regained the top spot in the race for the Orange Cap.

Enjoying the musical chair rounds to grab the top seat!
Mayank Agarwal proved to be a good fill in captain for KL Rahul however the team sure did miss KL Rahul to go that extra mile and secure a win.
Hope to see KL Rahul back fit and smashing soon.
