Axar to Krunal Pandya, FOUR, and the four helps. They needed it. Was on the pads, Krunal Pandya delays his sweep and hits it wide of the man at deep backward square for a four. Played it to the right of the man at deep backward square. Fifty for Krunal Pandya! He has had a good season with the ball but now has contributed with the bat as well. The chips were down. The pressure was alarming. But senior Pandya has handled the situation really well

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 back onto the stumps. Bright start for DC. Padikkal b Axar 0(2)
