Commentary

So, that is it from myself, Karthik Raj and my co-commentator, Maanas Upadhyay. Do switch over to the MI vs CSK game that is being played currently. Don't forget us to join tomorrow with a Super Sunday in the IPL. There is also ECI action. So, there is plenty of cricket to follow here at Sportskeeda!

Yashasvi Jaiswal, Player of the Match: I have worked hard for this. Just trying to express myself in the Powerplay. Learning is important for me. \ In my mind, I was like if it is a loose ball I will hit it. I think I learn everything from Buttler. I try to see how he practizes. I knew I can take on a few bowlers. Sanju bhai said 'koi baat nahin theek hai' (Sanju Samson said It is ok when he stood outside the circle before the ball which got Warner out was delivered)

Sanju Samson (Rajasthan Royals skipper): Everything went to plan for us. Only me not scoring runs didn't go plan (Laughs). The way I play this format I take a few balls to settle in before expressing myself. My main aim is to those 40-50 runs at a quick strike rate with Jos going through with his business as usual. My role in the team is very clear. Last game when we played here, it was a swimming pool and we were not able to keep the ball dry. We will have to get used to wet balls. Yuzi and Ash bhai know how to do it with the wet ball. I think Ashwin is always looking at the batter. The ball being new was very crucial for us and Ash bhai got through two important overs.

David Warner (Delhi Capitals skipper): Yeah I'd give it up in a heartbeat for a couple of wins (on getting the Orange cap). When you're chasing 200, you've got to start well in the power play. Unfortunately, once again we lost wickets. Can't take the credit away from how good a bowler Trent Boult is in the power play.be a challenge to come out here and chase 200 with early wickets in the power play. It was always going to It's just about executing your skill. If you're getting out early like that, it doesn't work. We are professional athletes - we have to go back and work it hard in the nets. Everyone is training as hard as they can but out here we are not executing it. Hopefully we can rebound from here and win at home against Mumbai. Might be swinging conditions there. It's difficult when you're losing wickets at the other end. It is frustrating. I'm just going to keep going out there and backing my skill and executing well. I think 170-180 was a par total there. It was going to be difficult getting a few overs out of someone else. Rovman's first over was good but you gotta try a few stuff too.

MATCH OVER!

Rajasthan Royals win by 57 runs!

Rajasthan Royals 199-4 (20)
Delhi Capitals 142-9 (20)

David Warner 65 (55) | Lalit Yadav 38 (24)

Yuzvendra Chahal 4-0-27-3 | Trent Boult 4-1-29-3

What a superb performance from Rajasthan Royals to round off the Guwahati leg. Their secondary home venue will be delighted despite losing the previous game against Punjab Kings. The victory was definitely set up by the batting effort as they posted 199. Defending that, Trent Boult produced a sensational double-wicket maiden off the very first over to kick things off. After a few overs, Rilee Rossouw got out off Ravichandran Ashwin's just before the Powerplay finished.

Lalit Yadav was promoted to No.5 and the all-rounder batted positively. However, David Warner struggled big time to get going as he batted at run-a-ball despite the asking rate going up at a rapid rate. Lalit was eventually dismissed for 38 off 24 balls as he inside-edged a slower delivery from Boult. Thereafter, Axar Patel and Rovman Powell were sent back cheaply by Yuzvendra Chahal and Ashwin respectively. Chahal also added the scalps of Warner and Abishek Porel at the end to end up with three wickets. Seamer Sandeep Sharma got a wicket of his own as he got rid of Anrich Nortje after bowling three wicket-less yet superb overs before that.

While Rajasthan Royals have looked like one of the best sides of the tournament, it has been the opposite for Delhi Capitals who seem to have so many issues. The DC fans will hope that this bad run of form ends before it is too late!

19.6 Sandeep Sharma to Kuldeep Yadav, a slower length ball on the off stump line, Kuldeep is undone by the change of pace but adjusts and manages to sweep it towards the fine leg fielder for a single.

19.5 Sandeep Sharma to Kuldeep Yadav, length ball outside off angling away, Kuldeep charges down the track and swings hard at that only to get a thick outside edge towards the fielder at point. No run!

19.4 Sandeep Sharma to Kuldeep Yadav, full ball outside off angling away, Kuldeep looks to drive it but fails to get any bat on it. A muffled appeal for caught behind is turned down. There was a little sound there. Perhaps that of Kuldeep's bat hitting the ground.

19.3 Sandeep Sharma to Mukesh Kumar, length ball on the middle stump line, Mukesh watchfully pushes that down to long on for a single.

Mukesh Kumar, RHB, is into the middle

Anrich Nortje has been castled here. Just a wicket away from the end!

19.2 Sandeep Sharma to Anrich Nortje, OUT! KNOCKS HIM OVER! A slower delivery bowled on the off stump, it's a knuckle ball and Nortje is well too early on the attempted on-drive. Misses completely and the ball proceeds to rattle the leg stump!

Anrich Nortje b Sandeep Sharma 0 (1b) (4*0 6*0)

19.1 Sandeep Sharma to Kuldeep Yadav, length ball on the middle stump line, Kuldeep holds his ground and works that off his pads towards square leg for a single.

Sandeep Sharma [3-0-17-0] is back into the attack

Anrich Nortje, RHB, is into the middle

Warner has been given LBW but he has reviewed it! No bat and three reds, so Warner has to depart!

18.6 Yuzvendra Chahal to David Warner, OUT! LBW! Warner reviews it straightaway! Tossed up nicely and on the middle stump spinning in, Warner attempts the reverse-sweep but misses and is struck on his stomach instead. Ultra-Edge suggests that there was no bat or glove involved. Three reds and Warner has to depart! The on-field decision remains and Chahal finishes with three wickets!

18.5 Yuzvendra Chahal to Kuldeep Yadav, tossed up delivery outside off spinning in, Kuldeep drills that down to long off for a single.
