DC keep chase alive

Marco Jansen returned for his third over, but David Miller wasted no time in putting pressure back on Punjab Kings, opening the over with a crisp boundary. He missed out on a flick next ball but recovered with a single to deep point.

Axar Patel then joined the charge, driving a boundary of his own before both batters rotated strike smartly to keep the chase moving. Delhi Capitals added 11 runs from the over, reaching 87 for 4 after 10 overs.

Despite the mini fightback, Punjab still held the upper hand, with DC needing 124 from the final 60 balls.

Marcus Stoinis was then introduced into the attack, and the batters initially settled for singles before Miller broke free with a towering six straight down the ground. The rest of the over was again built around strike rotation, keeping the scoreboard ticking without taking too many risks.

Another 11-run over for Delhi Capitals took them to 98 for 4 after 11 overs, but the equation still remains steep -- they now need 113 runs from 54 balls, with Punjab Kings still firmly in control despite the late resistance.
