Axar to Jacob Bethell, out Caught by Karun Nair!! Jacob Bethell showed sparks of brilliance in his short stay but Axar gets the better of him. Axar smartly slows his pace on this one as bowls it on the shorter side at 85.5kph on leg-stump. Jacob Bethell rocks to pull it across but is not able to generate enough power behind it. Karun runs in from deep backward square leg and dives in front to take a well-judged catch

Axar to Padikkal, out Bowled!!Chopped on! Axar only picked one wicket in the eight matches before this game this season and now, he picks up two wickets in a space of three balls. Axar darts this one on the shorter side at 100kph outside off, Padikkal perhaps expected it to turn but it slid on. He tries to chop it half-heartedly square of the wicket on the off-side but only manages to get an inside edge which deflects

Mukesh Kumar to Kohli, out Rajat Patidar Run Out!! DC are on the charge! Good reflexes and also some good decision-making from Karun Nair. Fuller length ball, Kohli flicked it towards mid-wicket. Rajat Patidar took off for a run but he was rightly sent back. Karun Nair collects the ball and hits the bull's eye. The dive from Rajat Patidar couldn't save him. It was a flat and accurate throw from Karun. He moved across to his right and had only one stump to aim-at

Rajat Patidar run out (Karun Nair) 6(6) [4s-1]

Mukesh Kumar to Krunal Pandya, FOUR, and four. Was a yorker on the pads, heaved down to deep mid for a four. Was looking to bluff the batter I guess but Krunal Pandya did well to get bat down on it and play it into the gap
