IPL 2021: Bowlers and Iyer star in DC's 4-wicket win against Mumbai

Courtesy of a three-wicket haul each by Axar Patel and Avesh Khan, alongside a superb spell from Anrich Nortje, the Rishabh Pant-led Delhi Capitals restricted the Mumbai Indians to 129/8 in 20 overs. At the break, they would have been high on confidence but MI weren't going to go down without a fight. They picked up three DC wickets in the powerplay and did not let any batsman settle down as they kept chipping away with wickets at regular intervals. Eventually, it was a 39- run stand between Shreyas Iyer (33*) and Ashwin (20*) that guided the side to a four-wicket win with 5 balls to spare. After this win, DC remained 2nd while MI remained 6th.
