1/9
Delhi Capitals get a win they really needed – and against a really strong Rajasthan Royals team which had been putting teams to the sword. New ball wickets and a powerful start with the bat as RR got a taste of their own medicine – and a 226-run target that stands as the franchise's highest ever successful chase.(ANI Pic Service)
2/9
Delhi knew their only chance was early wickets of RR's key men, and they delivered immediately. Mitchell Starc's first over wicket of Yashasvi Jaiswal was a touch of luck as a thigh-high beamer was spliced into the air, but a moment of genuine quality from Kyle Jamieson against Vaibhav Sooryavanshi – an inswinging yorker he couldn't keep out.(AP)
3/9
Riyan Parag had pressure on him and was in some trouble with controversy following him, but he let his bat do the talking – the only way to get the pressure of his back. His best knock of the year thus far, scoring 90(50), and a crucial century partnership with Dhruv Jurel.(ANI Pic Service)

Mitchell Starc the spark that DC needed, returning and delivering with three key wickets. Jaiswal up front, but removing Jadeja and Parag in the same over later on was also crucial. Looking in good rhythm, and a big asset for DC.(AP)
