DC 61-2 (4 Ovs) vs SRH 266-7 | Scorecard

Washington Sundar continues his spell, but Jake Fraser-McGurk wastes no time in asserting his dominance, greeting the spinner with back-to-back boundaries. He then follows it up with a massive six, showcasing his power-hitting abilities. Jake maintains his composure and adds another boundary to his tally before concluding the over with consecutive sixes. 

A whopping 30 runs come off the over, propelling DC to 55-2 after 3 overs.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar persists from the other end, and Abhishek Porel begins by defending the first delivery. He then guides the next ball towards long off for two quick singles, rotating the strike effectively. Porel finds the gap and manages to guide the ball to the boundary for four runs. However, Bhuvneshwar strikes back with back-to-back dot balls, a rare phenomenon in this high-scoring match. The over concludes with another dot ball, restricting DC to just 6 runs from it. 

After 4 overs, DC stands at 61-2, still within striking distance of the target.
