DC 45-1 (6 ovs) vs GT | Scorecard

Siraj with his third over. Rahul is on strike. Four! Shortish ball and Rahul chops it through backward point. 

A dot follows. Another boundary! Rahul  sits back and pulls the short of a good length delivery over mid-on and the ball races past the ropes. 

Two dots follow.

A single through mid-on to end the over. Nine runs come off it. 



Kagiso Rabada comes into the attack. Starts off with a dot ball. 

Sixer! First maximum of the innings. Rahul gets inside the line and pulls the short ball elegantly over long leg.

A dot later Rahul muscles the shortish delivery outside off past the deep backward point fielder. 

Another six! Glorious shot. Fullish delivery and Rahul hits it straight over long-off for a maximum. Second of the over. 

A single through deep backward point to end the over. 

A forgettable first over for Rabada on his return as he concedes 17.

DC end the powerplay with 45-1 on board.
