sprays it wide outside off and that's the end of the game
Daredevils won by 9 wickets (with 37 balls remaining)
6.55 pm Kings XI have been smashed. By nine wickets and 37 balls to spare. They remain entrenched at the bottom of the league with six defeats in eight games. Daredevils, on the other hand, have jumped from sixth to fourth place, a point clear of RCB. They have eight points but have played the extra game.
Sahaj: "Faizan missed his prediction by one ball and one wicket." Top effort it was.
The IPL bids farewell to Delhi tonight, the Daredevils remaining home games will be in Raipur.
George Bailey: "I'm not sure what to say. It felt like when we were batting it was a difficult surface, when they were batting it looked like a good surface, so the answer is probably somewhere in the middle. Full credit to Delhi, they bowled well, JP captained well, put us on the back foot. We've just been trying to get the boys to free up a bit, play natural games. The big thing is not to let these performances define us, it doesn't mean you are not trying or training hard."
Aaron: "how can Bailey STILL be smiling after that performance?!" Hey, it's only a game, right?
JP Duminy: "Definitely good to win going into the second half, we have been inconsistent, we want to correct that and it's a good start today. We always knew if we can get the lefthnders in I would come into play ... things are going well with bat and ball. Long way to go and big performances are needed. Unbelievable, isn't it? (Zaheer's comeback). His experience. So great to have Zaheer back."
The Man of the Match is Nathan Coulter-Nile, who took 4 for 20 in four overs.
Coulter-Nile: "It was a little bit up and down early on but the dew came in and made it easier for us. Makes a big difference, having him [Zaheer] out there, talking to the guys. I thought we were good enough from the start, we just need to keep winning and scrape into that top four."
We've come to an end of our ball-by-ball coverage of this game, but in 20 minutes the toss will take place in Mumbai, where they are taking on Rajasthan Royals. So hop on over to that scorecard. Thank you for all your emails this evening, cheers.
Tiwary steps out and hoists the ball off his pads with a muscular short-arm swing, levels the scores with a one-bounce four to deep midwicket
worked off the pads through square for another single
cut off the back foot but can't beat point, point beats himself though by throwing and conceding an overthrow
goes back and across to defend towards the bowler
defended on the front foot as the ball turns into him, that actually missed the bat and hit the pad
lots of width outside off and Agarwal uses his fast hands to play a checked cut shot, he's hit it well enough to beat point, he too gets to his half-century
the short of a length delivery gets big on Agarwal, who is beaten as he tries to dab the ball
a length ball on the pads, glanced to fine leg
The burly Saurabh Tiwary strides to the middle with Daredevils on the doorstep of victory.
caught at deep midwicket! Iyer moves across his crease and chips a length ball off his pads, it lands in the hands of Patel, who came running in from the boundary to take a simple catch. That's Thakur's first IPL wicket and it's come after considerable punishment. Iyer seemed to play too early
full delivery wide outside off stump, Agarwal reaches for it and square drives to deep point
Agarwal moves across his stumps to a really short ball and pulls the ball towards deep midwicket, he had so much time to play that shot so he could pick out the gap on the boundary
played to third man for a single
that could have been a wicket! The ball was short and Agarwal pulled it really hard, but it was in the air as it burst through Bailey's hands and raced to the boundary to bring up the 100 partnership
a length ball outside off, driven powerfully on the back foot but the fielder in cover intercepts the shot
short of a length on leg stump, Iyer stays in his crease and swats the ball towards square leg, two fielders converge on it but neither dive to try and save the boundary. Iyer gets to his fifty
Hardik K: "Looks like Faizan is very close to prediction. Faizan: "To all those waiting for the suspense, nothing of that sort is going to happen.. DD 119/2 in 14 overs and DD win the match comfortably...MOM CoulterNile.." Do you see two wickets falling, though?
opens the face late to steer the ball and give third man a chase to his right
nudged off the front foot through midwicket
nearly in the blockhole and the batsman can only dig it down the ground
punched off the front foot to cover, but it's a no ball, and there's a free hit coming up. That's a harsh call for no-ball, a bit of the heel was behind the line
Over 14 • DC 119/1
