Punjab Kings ki Innings: Teen Hisson ki Kahani
Powerplay mein dhamaka, shuruaati jhatka ke baad
Toss haar kar batting karne utari PBKS ko doosre over mein jhatka laga jab Priyansh Arya sirf 6 runs banakar Mustafizur Rahman ki short ball par Stubbs ke haath catch ho gaye. Lekin uske baad Prabhsimran Singh aur Josh Inglis ne powerplay mein dhamakedar batting ki. Inglis ne sirf 12 balls par 32 runs banaye (3 fours, 2 sixes) aur field ko har kone mein chakke chauke lagaye. Prabhsimran ne bhi 28 runs (18 balls) banakar acchi support di. PBKS ne 6 overs ke powerplay mein 60/2 ka score jod diya. Inglis Vipraj Nigam ki googly par stumping hokar out hue, lekin team ne tezi se run banakar base strong kar diya.
Shreyas Iyer ka thehraav bhara half-century
2 wickets girne ke baad captain Shreyas Iyer ne zimmedaari sambhali aur innings ko sambhala. Unhone DC ke spinners Kuldeep Yadav aur Vipraj Nigam ke khilaf smart batting ki. Prabhsimran ke 28 par out hone ke baad bhi Iyer ne scoreboard chalu rakha. Ek LBW review aur ek boundary catch bachane ke baad Iyer ne 33 balls mein apni half-century complete ki (total: 53 off 34 balls, 5 fours, 2 sixes). Unka wicket 18th over mein Kuldeep ki short ball par gira, lekin tab tak unhone innings ko balance diya.
Marcus Stoinis ka tufani andaz
Innings ka sabse thrilling moment aaya jab Marcus Stoinis ne death overs mein DC ki bowling ki dhajjiyan uda di. No. 6 par aakar unhone Mukesh Kumar ke 17th over mein 25 runs banaye (2 sixes, 2 fours). Uske baad Mohit Sharma ke 19th over mein 22 runs banaye (6, 4, 4, 6). Stoinis ne 16 balls par 44* (3 fours, 4 sixes) banakar innings ka rukh badal diya. Harpreet Brar ne bhi last over mein ek chhakka jod kar PBKS ko 206 tak pahucha diya. Ye unka IPL 2025 ka saatva 200+ score tha – unki batting line-up ki gehraayi ko dikhata hai.
Delhi Capitals ki Bowling: Mustafizur ne rakhi izzat
Mustafizur Rahman DC ke sabse safal bowler rahe – 4 overs mein 33 runs dekar 3 wickets liye. Unhone Priyansh Arya, Shashank Singh (11 off 10), aur ek aur batter ko out kiya – teeno catches Stubbs ne liye. Unki slower balls aur angles ne PBKS ke batsmen ko pareshan kiya. Kuldeep Yadav aur Vipraj Nigam ne 2-2 wickets liye, lekin dono ne 9+ economy se runs diye. Kuldeep ne Iyer aur Omarzai ko out kiya, lekin Stoinis ke aakraman ne unki mehnat ko beasar kar diya. Mukesh Kumar ne 17th over mein 25 runs diye aur Mohit Sharma ne 19th over mein 22. Fielding mein DC ne kuch catches bhi chhode, jo unke liye aur nuksan sabit hua.
Mukhy Yogdaan aur Background

DC ke liye tough chase
