Apart from Mohsin Khan, Dushmantha Chameera, Ravi Bishnoi, and Krishnappa Gowtham scalped one wicket each, which put the joint effort of Rishabh Pant, Axar Patel, and Mitchell Marsh in vain.

Pant played a knock of 44 runs while Axar Patel scored an unbeaten 42 off 24 balls but that was not enough for Delhi, as they lost the game by 6 runs. (ANI)
