Rajasthan Royals vs Delhi Daredevils, Match 6, Jaipur - RR beat DD by 10 runs (DLS)

So that's it from this rainy encounter. Even though it's late, the crowd goes back with a smile on its face as it got to witness some cricketing action. Rajasthan bag their first win of the competition. Delhi lost another one, but they wouldn't be beating themselves up too much over this. Was a difficult task with the rain interfering. Well, done with this, but there's more action tomorrow as Hyderabad welcome Mumbai at 2000 IST. Do tune in for that. Cheers!

Sanju Samson is declared as the Man of the Match. His attacking knock in the first innings set the tone for his side's middle order to come and take advantage of, eventually resulting in posting a total which proved to be a winner.

Earlier in the day, a good anchoring knock from skipper Ajinkya Rahane, followed by some explosive hitting from Sanju Samson, Rahul Tripathi and Jos Buttler got Rajasthan to a total, which after the DLS method, proved too much for the travelling side.

A rain-hit affair which went on late into the night, but one which Rajasthan eventually managed to clinch. With a revised target of 71 to hunt down in 6 overs, Delhi had to get off to a blazing start. Pant provided that, but wickets kept falling at regular intervals. Too many dot balls were bowled too and as a result, the pressure kept building, the scoring rate kept rising and the task was too much. They succumbed to the occasion and the away team couldn't get over the line, despite all the power-hitters in the ranks.

Ben Laughlin to C Morris, SIX! Maximum to finish the innings but that's not enough. RAJASTHAN WIN BY 10 RUNS (DLS Method)! Full ball on the stumps, Morris lifts it over mid on for a biggie.
