Delhi Capitals handsome 20-run victory over Rajasthan Royals

With a commanding 20-run victory against Rajasthan Royals, Delhi Capitals got back on track and maintained their slender chances of making the IPL playoffs on Tuesday. Following Rajasthan Royals' decision to field, Tristan Stubbs scorched a fast-bowling 41 off of 20 balls to propel Delhi Capitals to a 221/8 lead. The Delhi team's best spinner, Kuldeep Yadav, returned with 2/25 as the Rajasthan Royals were held to 201 for 8. Additionally, Khaleel Ahmed (2/47) and Mukesh Kumar (2/30) each claimed two wickets.

With 12 points apiece, Delhi has now joined the Chennai Super Kings, Sunrisers Hyderabad, and Lucknow Super Giants in a mid-table race for the playoffs. Sanju Samson, the captain, spearheaded Rajasthan's pursuit with his sixth half-century of the year. However, Shai Hope's disputed catch at the edge of the long-on boundary brought a stop to his magnificent 86 off 46 balls (8x4, 6x6).
