Marcus Stoinis is the MAN OF THE MATCH. 38 runs from 27 balls and 3/26 with the ball. Says that opening is something he has done in a couple of seasons in the BBL.

States that he asked Rashid about it when he was bowling but got no answer to it. Adds that the tournament has been hard on everybody, with the quarantine and all, missing the family. States that Mumbai are a very strong side and that Delhi need to be at their best to beat them.

Shreyas Iyer, the VICTORIOUS DELHI SKIPPER, says that it is amazing. This is the best feeling to have. The emotions have been like a roller-coaster. But as a family, it is an amazing feeling to have. He further says that as a captain, he has learnt a lot. States that he has got a lot of support from the coaches, management and the team owners. Says that the emotions keep going high and low.

Adds that Rashid is a very good bowler and it was important to play him carefully in the middle overs. Says that Stoinis opening was because they needed to rocket to a good start.

Kagiso Rabada has the purple cap back on. He says that this was his day. States that the primary objective is to win the tournament. Does not mind if they win the tournament and he does not manage any wicket. Kagiso says that when one plays for a good deal of time, there are challenges, mentally and physically.

Says that it was a very good wicket to bat on. Says that Delhi has never reached the final since the League has begun. States that the team is glad to have taken themselves this far. Says that the League's magnitude is very high, does not get any further than this. Playing against Mumbai, Rabada says they have a good pool of talent as well.

David Warner, Hyderabad's captain, says that nobody gave Hyderabad a chance at the start. The talk was about the big 3 - Mumbai, Bangalore and Delhi. But he is happy with the way they have gone about in the tournament. States that Natarajan was a great find. Pandey did well towards the end stages of the tournament. Believes it is important to take catches and says will do well next time. Adds that losing players like Saha is unfortunate. But Warner also says that it is important to work with what one has got. Says that Hyderabad's fans are very loyal. He says that the team is like a second home to him. The franchise owners are very good and everyone is like family.

Earlier in the game, after Delhi opted to bat first, Dhawan and Hetmyer ensured they took their side to a very good total. For Hyderabad, Williamson along with Holder and Samad tried his best to take his side over the line but his knock and the other two's went in vain.

Coming to the batting now, Hyderabad needed a good start but they had lost 3 in the Powerplay. Also, the problem for them in this innings was them losing wickets at the wrong time. Williamson was brilliant. He calculated his innings excellently and along with Holder first and then Samad, it seemed like he would take them over the line but that was not the case. Once he fell, it was all over.

Delhi it is to meet Mumbai in the finals! What a game though we were treated to. Outstanding. Yes, Delhi was always in control but Hyderabad surely had them worried when Williamson and Samad were batting. They though needed one of the two to play the distance but both fell at the wrong time. Have to credit Stoinis and Rabada for the way they bowled. Especially the 17th over by the former and the 19th by the latter. Have to say it is those two who changed the game with their spells.

Well, a little moment of comedy in the end. Sandeep Sharma moves too far to the leg side, Anrich Nortje bowls it very full on off, Sharma brings the bat down in time. Digs it out on the off side for a dot. But it does not matter. DELHI WIN BY 17 RUNS AND ARE THROUGH TO THE FINALS!

Who will walk out to bat now? Shahbaz Nadeem it is.

OUT! TAKEN! Hyderabad lose Rashid Khan now. Full and around off, Rashid clears his front foot and looked to power this over long on for a six. However, he does not get his timing right. Catching practice to the fielder at long on, who takes this one easily.

OUT! CAUGHT! The substitute fielder, Keemo Paul, takes the catch. Samad is very dejected. Full and around off, Abdul Samad clears the front leg and looks to go big over long off.

FOUR! Brilliant, brilliant. Around off on a good length, Kane opens the face of his bat deliberately late, knows Rabada is there at backward point. Gets it wide of him and gets it into the boundary.

What has happened there? Shreyas Iyer was the man at long off. As he picked up the last ball and threw it back towards the bowler, he seems to have injured his shoulder. He gave it his all in the throw and the old shoulder injury seems to have resurfaced. He is staying on but is inside the circle.

DRINKS! What a game this is turning out to be! 51 needed in 24. Williamson holds the key and the rest have to play around him. Delhi need his wicket but they would know, one good over and the game could well drift away from them. An exciting passage of play awaits.

In the air... but short! On off, Williamson strokes it uppishly towards long on. But it falls well short of Patel there. Axar did not go for the catch as it was well ahead of him, choosing to save what could have been a possible boundary. Just the single. 51 runs needed in the last 4 overs.

Outside off, this is worked on the off side for a single. Kane Williamson moves to 48.

Low full toss outside off, Kane looked to get clever. He got across to paddle that first, over short fine leg. But then he changes his mind and looked to do the same over short third man. But he is too late, the ball takes the outside edge and falls on the off side.

Marcus Stoinis is back to bowl.

A single as this is driven down to deep cover for one.

FOUR! Kane Williamson is playing a lone hand here. Around off, flat, Kane punches it through the covers. It is wide of deep cover who runs to his left but cannot cut it off.

Who's in next? Abdul Samad it is.

OUT! CAUGHT! The fielder completes the catch easily. Another goes down. Floated on middle and leg, Jason Holder comes down and looks to loft it over mid-wicket for a biggie. But it was neither a power shot nor a chip. Somewhere in between, it goes straight into the hands of Dubey, who comes running forward from deep mid-wicket. Warner's men need 100 runs in 50 balls.

A very feeble appeal for LBW. On a good length on the pads, Williamson looks to play at it but misses. Gets hit on the top of his thigh pad. An appeal follows but to no avail.

Kagiso Rabada is back. 2-0-13-1 are his figures so far.

SIX! He has always been a good player of spin, Williamson. Floated around off, Kane uses his feet, dances down the track and lofts this over the bowler's head, over long on.

Good fielding from Nortje. Floated around off, Holder hits it to the right of long on. Nortje runs in there and stops it well. Keeps it down to just the single.

Tossed up on middle, the Kiwi mistimes his sweep through the carpet. It goes to long on for a single.

DRINKS! Delhi well and truly on top! The run rate has been pushed over 10 and they have already taken three. More of the same is what they would want. For Hyderabad. They would hope the two batting out there need to keep going. They did in the game before this one and need to do it here too. Can they? We will find out.

Just a couple then! Floated around off, Holder lifts it over short mid-wicket. It is racing away in between long on and deep mid-wicket. Both fielders run to it. Pravin, the long on fielder, cuts it off but it looks like he has touched the ropes in doing so. The umpires have a look. Replays are in and Paul Reiffel is satisfied with the save. Just the two runs there.

Is that a boundary? Or has Dubey pulled it off well? Is his back foot touching the ropes? No, the umpire is happy with it, just the couple.

Quicker one on off and middle, Jason looked to paddle that to fine leg but mistimes it to the leg side. A very poor attempt there, by the batter.

On the pads, nudged behind square on the on side for one.
