The Delhi team failed on every front

No bowler from Delhi could bowl economically. Enrique Norkhia gave away 59 runs in 4 overs. Rasikh Salam gave 47 runs in 3 overs. Khalil Ahmed and Ishant Sharma gave away 43-43 runs. Akshar Patel bowled one over and he also scored 18 runs. After this, Warner was out after scoring 18 runs while Shaw was out after scoring 10 runs. Mitchell Marsh and Abhishek Porel could not even open their account. Rishabh Pant scored 55 runs in 25 balls and Tristan Stubbs scored 54 runs in 32 balls, somehow saving Delhi from collapsing early. However, Delhi still suffered its biggest defeat of this season.
