Ashutosh Sharma and Vipraj Nigam helped the Delhi Capitals (DC) effectively chase the 210 runs that were requested of them. The squad had an amazing run-chase from 113-6 to win the game. Axar Patel, the new captain, would be pleased with his team’s performance on the field.
Ashutosh Sharma defeated LSG in a run chase by scoring an undefeated half-century.
Ashutosh Sharma has previously demonstrated his abilities to the world. He did something similar while playing for PBKS in the previous IPL season. Nevertheless, given the circumstances of the game, this innings will undoubtedly rank among the greatest.
He hammered five boundaries and five sixes in his undefeated 66 runs off 31 balls. Not even for a second did the batter allow DC to lose the game. With only one wicket remaining, they only needed six runs in the final over. Mohit Sharma participated in the strike as well. Ashutosh hit the winning six after the player inexplicably rotated the strike. He will take confidence from this innings and remember it for a long time.
