We come to the end of this exciting clash. Delhi got over the line and earn vital two points for themselves, lifting them to sixth place in the table. Rajasthan moves down to seventh place with this loss. Moving on, on the 3rd of May, we have Kolkata hosting Chennai at Eden Gardens. The action begins at 2000 local (1430 GMT), so do join in for that. See you folks then!

Rishabh Pant has been handed over the Man of the Match award for his scintillating knock in the first innings. His 69 off 29 was vital in his side getting to a daunting total, but more than that, it was the momentum his knock provided which swung the tide in his team's favour.

00:45 (IST) May 03

D'Arcy Short struggled a lot for the most part, but his onslaught in his fellow countryman's (Glenn Maxwell) over, where he scored three consecutive maximums, put the visitors back on track somewhat. Krishnappa Gowtham and Rahul Tripathi took it deep and tried to get their side over the line, but it just wasn't meant to be. Earlier in the evening, before the rain intervened, Delhi powered themselves close to 200 on the back of fine knocks from Prithvi Shaw, Shreyas Iyer and Rishabh Pant. The revised target then came in and Delhi got the job done with the ball.

00:41 (IST) May 03

Phew! What a thrilling end to this rain-hit encounter. Went right down to the wire and Rajasthan almost got a victory out of the jaws of defeat. With the revised target, the away side needed 151 to win in 12 overs and Jos Buttler got them away to the perfect start. Scored a fifty in absolutely no time and put Rajasthan in a good position to clinch this. But, after his departure, the wickets kept falling and the asking rate crept up quite a lot.

T Boult to K Gowtham, He can't! Trent Boult holds his nerves. Been a terrific over from the Kiwi. Keeps it outside off on a full length, Gowtham lofts it over covers. Just the single and that's it. DELHI WIN BY 4 RUNS!

T Boult to K Gowtham, DROPPED and FOUR! Rajasthan can still win this. Need one big hit. Full and in the slot, Gowtham lofts it high over mid-wicket. Iyer out in the deep, gets under the ball, tries to take it but it goes through his hand. One bounce and over the rope. Six needed of the last ball! Can Gowtham put this away?

Jofra Archer is out to bat.

T Boult to R Tripathi, OUT! Tripathi is run out. All but over now? Surely? Or is there still a twist in the tale? Full outside off, Tripathi swings and misses and both batsmen once again take off for the run. Pant throws it back to Boult who takes the bails off at his end with ease.

T Boult to K Gowtham, Boult does well. Fires it full and wide outside off, away from Gowtham's arc who prefers the leg side. It's lofted over covers and two runs are taken as the men in the deep mop it up.

T Boult to R Tripathi, Good length ball on middle stump, Tripathi gets down on one knee and sweeps it through square leg. Wants the second, but will have to settle for just one.

T Boult to R Tripathi, Wide! Full and well outside off, Tripathi leaves it alone. It's across the tramline, so a wide is signalled.

00:30 (IST) May 03

Trent Boult to bowl the final over. He has 14 runs to defend.

L Plunkett to K Gowtham, SIX! Krishnappa Gowtham is keeping the fight alive! What a hit, my man. He picks up the length early, it's a little shorter in length, so he swivels and pulls it over mid-wicket and sends it sailing into the stands.

Overs10.3
Score125 - 4

L Plunkett to R Tripathi, Not out! Cutter on middle and leg, coming in, Tripathi gets low to sweep but is hit on the pads. Big appeal goes up but the umpire says no. Plunkett runs in and takes the catch thinking there might be an inside edge. Rahul is out of the crease, so Liam looks to run him out but misses. Iyer wants to review, maybe thinking he can get his man here. Replays show there was no edge and the ball would have been missing leg stump.

00:26 (IST) May 03

Delhi use the review. Maybe for the lbw? Or the inside edge? Not sure. Both will be checked either way.
