RR vs DC Highlights, IPL 2021: Morris helps Rajasthan Royals beat Delhi Capitals by 3 wickets

Chris Morris (36* off 18 balls) and Jaydev Unadkat (11* off 7) added a match-winning 46 runs for the 8th wicket to help Rajasthan Royals beat Delhi Capitals by 3 wickets in a low-scoring contest at the Wankhede stadium in Mumbai. The Royals were in trouble when they lost David Miller (62 off 43) in the 16th over, still needing 44 off 25 balls, but Morris had other ideas. Electing to bowl, Jaydev Unadkat (3-15) and Mustafizur Rahman (2-29) helped Rajasthan Royals restrict Delhi Capitals to below-par 147/8.
