Shardul Thakur to Bhanuka Rajapaksa, OUT! CAUGHT! Thakur strikes! This is on a length and on middle, was a slower one. Bhanuka Rajapaksa is too early as he looks to heave it and gets a leading edge. The ball goes to Anrich Nortje who takes a simple catch at backward point. 107 needed in 86 balls.

Shardul Thakur to Shikhar Dhawan, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Dhawan was struggling here to play his shot. Thakur serves short of a length and around middle, it was well directed and Shikhar Dhawan was cramped as he tries to ramp it away. The ball was too close to playing that shot and it takes a faint edge before meeting the mitts of Rishabh Pant. Delhi will be very happy with how the Powerplay has gone. Punjab are 54/3 at the end of the sixth over.

Axar Patel to Mayank Agarwal, OUT! TIMBER! What a beauty from Axar Patel! An arm ball from Patel, on a length and slanting around middle and leg. Mayank Agarwal tries to punch on the back foot but the ball skids through and goes past his bat to rattle the stumps. 100th wicket for Axar Patel in the Indian T20 League. Delhi right on top here.

Axar Patel to Jitesh Sharma, FOUR! Just over! Patel drops it short and on middle. Jitesh Sharma pulls it flat and just over the leaping mid-wicket fielder for a boundary.

7.6
Kuldeep Yadav to Liam Livingstone, OUT! STUMPING! There was a feeling this was coming as Kuldeep Yadav was mixing it fantastically here. Yadav flights this one, on a length and around off, this one spins a bit. Liam Livingstone comes down the track and looks to go downtown but connects with thin air only. Rishabh Pant has all the time to remove the bails as Liam Livingstone didn't even try to get back, he just started to walk away.

9.3
Kuldeep Yadav to Harpreet Brar, OUT! BOWLED! THROUGH THE GATE! Harpreet Brar didn't pick that all! A googly from Yadav, on a length, slower and around off. Harpreet Brar leans across to defend but leaves a big gap between the bat and pad. The ball takes a slight bit of bat and sneaks through to disturb the stumps. Punjab are 6 down and Delhi are all over them.

Kuldeep Yadav to Jitesh Sharma, FOUR! Welcome boundary for Punjab here! Tossed up on middle. Jitesh Sharma looks to work it towards the leg side. The ball goes more off a leading edge of Sharma's blade over the bowler and races away towards the fence.

12.4
Axar Patel to Rishi Dhawan, OUT! BOWLED! Axar Patel keeps it simple, wicket to wicket and gets rewarded! Patel bowls it full on off. Rishi Dhawan tries to make something there and goes for the sweep shot. He misses and the ball knocks over his off stump. This is looling very bad for Punjab now, they still need 78 from 44 balls and have just three wickets in hand.

13.5
Anrich Nortje to Jitesh Sharma, FOUR! Handy runs for Punjab! They need to get as many runs as possible as net-run rate can play a big factor in the end. A short ball on middle. Jitesh Sharma looks to pull but gets the top edge. The ball goes in the air but behind the keeper for a boundary.

Shardul Thakur to Jitesh Sharma, OUT! TAKEN! Excellent stuff from David Warner! A knuckle ball, full and outside off. Sharma tries to clear long off but fails to get much height on it. David Warner runs forward, dives and plucks it out of the ground. Superb work from Warner and as Jitesh Sharma walks back, it should be the game for Delhi.

17.6
Shardul Thakur to Kagiso Rabada, OUT! TAKEN! A length ball, outside off. Rabada again swings his bat but it goes off the higher part of the bat and Rovman Powell takes a simple one at long off. This is a big wicket as Kagiso Rabada has the ability to clear the fence but it looks quite difficult from Punjab from hereon.
