Like the first match, in today's match too, we did not see better innings from the Delhi batsmen. Delhi Capital managed to collect only 162 runs by losing 8 wickets. Warner, Prithvi Shaw, Mitchell Marsh, Rossouw, and Sarfraz are all excellent batsmen in the T20 format. Apart from Axar Patel, no other batsman's strike rate was satisfactory in today's match. Axar Patel scored 36 off 22 balls. However, I don't think a score of 162 is enough to win. Gujarat Titans will win today's match.
I judge from their ipl plays, Sarfraz has been disappointing, I don't see hard-hitting ability in him, happy to be proven wrong in next matches.
Delhi Capitals vs Gujrat Titans
The Gujarat Titans deserve my congratulations for their outstanding victory in today's match. Despite Delhi Caps' poor performance anything can happen on the field because cricket is a game of surprises. The Titans shown remarkable tenacity and talent and their batting lineup performed superbly. It is an amazing accomplishment that they reached the objective with 6 wickets remaining and 11 balls remaining. This triumph demonstrates their prowess in the T20 format and establishes them as a serious contender. Both sides should be proud of their efforts because it was an exciting match overall.
Story would have been different had Miller was out in that lbw
In T20 matches the target needs to be 180+ runs. Only then it is possible for the bowlers to give the best. In T20 format cricket runs come out from the best bowlers as the batsmen just focus on scoring and never think of losing the wickets. Yesterday Delhi Capitals somehow made 162 runs, at the beginning it looked like the scoring will stop around 140 runs. Anyhow the winning streak of Gujarat Titans continues.
Delhi had steady run rate around 7 since start, hitting is expected in last overs, 160 target was expected.
