Playing strokes getting increasingly difficult as pitch starts to lose pace and ball not coming on to bat. But that can’t be an excuse for #<!---->R<!---->C<!---->B’ struggles with the bat after choosing to field first.

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) O<!---->c<!---->t<!---->o<!---->b<!---->e<!---->r<!----> <!---->5<!---->,<!----> <!---->2<!---->0<!---->2<!---->0

The ball may grip a little bit because the roller is used during the break but as the ball gets wet due to dew it will start skidding. #<!---->R<!---->C<!---->B<!---->v<!---->D<!---->C #<!---->I<!---->P<!---->L<!---->2<!---->0<!---->2<!---->0

Someone quickly buy a lottery ticket in the name of @<!---->A<!---->a<!---->r<!---->o<!---->n<!---->F<!---->i<!---->n<!---->c<!---->h<!---->5.. ? ? ? #<!---->I<!---->P<!---->L<!---->2<!---->0<!---->2<!---->0 @<!---->I<!---->P<!---->L @<!---->S<!---->t<!---->a<!---->r<!---->S<!---->p<!---->o<!---->r<!---->t<!---->s<!---->I<!---->n<!---->d<!---->i<!---->a #<!---->R<!---->C<!---->B<!---->v<!---->D<!---->C

Tough target to chase. If #<!---->R<!---->C<!---->B get these, their confidence will just skyrocket. Big chase in the context of their campaign this year.

So @<!---->a<!---->s<!---->h<!---->w<!---->i<!---->n<!---->r<!---->a<!---->v<!---->i<!---->9<!---->9 didn’t ‘Mankad’ Finch though he had the chance. Does this mean Coach Ponting has prevailed on him on the issue? We’ll know after the game. Meanwhile, he’s for Delhi into a strong position with wicket of Padikkal in his first over

— Cricketwallah (@cricketwallah) O<!---->c<!---->t<!---->o<!---->b<!---->e<!---->r<!----> <!---->5<!---->,<!----> <!---->2<!---->0<!---->2<!---->0

Ah that moment! @<!---->a<!---->s<!---->h<!---->w<!---->i<!---->n<!---->r<!---->a<!---->v<!---->i<!---->9<!---->9 has warned @<!---->A<!---->a<!---->r<!---->o<!---->n<!---->F<!---->i<!---->n<!---->c<!---->h<!---->5 and if he does again then he needn’t hold back! @<!---->D<!---->e<!---->l<!---->h<!---->i<!---->C<!---->a<!---->p<!---->i<!---->t<!---->a<!---->l<!---->s

What makes @<!---->D<!---->e<!---->l<!---->h<!---->i<!---->C<!---->a<!---->p<!---->i<!---->t<!---->a<!---->l<!---->s such a dangerous side? The depth in their batting #<!---->D<!---->C<!---->v<!---->s<!---->R<!---->C<!---->B

— Vikrant Gupta (@vikrantgupta73) O<!---->c<!---->t<!---->o<!---->b<!---->e<!---->r<!----> <!---->5<!---->,<!----> <!---->2<!---->0<!---->2<!---->0

Crucial knock by Stoinis to propel @<!---->D<!---->e<!---->l<!---->h<!---->i<!---->C<!---->a<!---->p<!---->i<!---->t<!---->a<!---->l<!---->s to a good total but the wicket looks good to bat on.
Given the batting strength of @<!---->R<!---->C<!---->B<!---->T<!---->w<!---->e<!---->e<!---->t<!---->s, it won’t be easy for Delhi to defend.#<!---->R<!---->C<!---->B<!---->v<!---->D<!---->C #<!---->I<!---->P<!---->L<!---->2<!---->0<!---->2<!---->0

— Sachin Tendulkar (@sachin_rt) O<!---->c<!---->t<!---->o<!---->b<!---->e<!---->r<!----> <!---->5<!---->,<!----> <!---->2<!---->0<!---->2<!---->0

What an incredible shot by @<!---->P<!---->r<!---->i<!---->t<!---->h<!---->v<!---->i<!---->S<!---->h<!---->a<!---->w there!

A million dollar reaction by @<!---->i<!---->m<!---->V<!---->k<!---->o<!---->h<!---->l<!---->i after almost applying saliva on the ball.

Sometimes instincts takeover!?

Why don’t they just send the purple cap to Rabada’s house along with his visa?
