Worst IPL Bowling Figures

Rishabh Pant smashed 31 runs in the last over as Mohit conceded for four sixes and one four.

Shubman Gill kept faith in his opening bowlers and Sandeep Warrier delivered in his second over, getting rid of both Delhi openers and then picked up a third wicket as well. However, the spin duo of Rashid Khan and Noor Ahmad couldn’t quite control the middle phase.

Gill may have missed a trick by not trusting Warrier for the 19th over, and instead, he threw Sai Kishore into the line of fire as he had not bowled a single ball prior to this game.

Pant and Axar Patel forged a blistering century stand en route to quickfire individual half-centuries to power Delhi Capitals to 224/4 against Gujarat Titans.

Pant and Axar stitched 113 off just 68 balls for the fourth wicket with their counter-attacking batting after DC were down 44 for 3 in 6 overs.

With three wickets down, Pant and Axar initially played sensibly and tried to forge a partnership but once they were set, they unleashed their brutal attack.

Pant started slowly but gained confidence as time progressed and unleashed his trademark pick-up shots of his legs, cuts and pulls to score his runs.

While Pant looked in full flow after getting his groove, Axar played the second fiddle but didn’t falter to dispatch the bad balls to the fence.

While Pant led from the front, remaining unbeaten on 88 off 43 balls (5X4s, 8X6s), Axar made 66 off 43 balls studded with five fours and four sixes.
