Full commentary

A comprehensive six wickets victory for Delhi, thanks to the superlative 80 from Unmukt Chand who was named man of the match. He started off quite aggressively and then consolidates that until he reached his fifty. None of the Himachal bowlers able to create an impact at any point of time and those small partnerships leads Delhi all the way to the final. That's all for today, do join us for the final. Cheers!
