Delhi complete a convincing victory, wide outside off, batsman looks to swing it to midwicket again, misses, keeper collects, and Delhi move to 12 points and take sole possession of second spot in the table
Daredevils vs RCB, 35th match at Delhi, IPL, Apr 04 2010 - Ball by Ball Commentary
Post-match presentation:
Anil Kumble: "Maybe 160-165 we could have chased, the toss was crucial, but we should have made a better fist of the chase. Delhi played exceptionally well. One loss doesn't really matter, we have two home games coming up, we hope to pull it off there."
Gautam Gambhir: "They way Collingwood played set the game up for us. I said at the toss that anything above 170 will be difficult. Whoever comes in Delhi and plays has a tough time."
The Man of the Match is Paul Collingwood: "Yeah, I hit it pretty well, being in Bangladesh for five weeks probably helped. We have been fortunate enough to win three tosses, but you still have to put in a good performance and we have."
That's it from us today, do join us for tomorrow's game between Deccan and Rajasthan.
