We’re into the final two days of the IPL 2023 group stage with plenty to play for. It will be Delhi Capitals taking on Chennai Super Kings at Arun Jaitley Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
Delhi Capitals have been knocked out of the competition already and they’re playing a spoil-sport. In their previous game, they put a huge dent in Punjab Kings’ hopes of the playoffs by defeating them.
David Warner (46) and Prithvi Shaw (54) provided a great start to DC before Rilee Rossouw hammered 82* off 37 to power them to 213. Anrich Nortje picked 2 for 36 amidst a comical display of fielding by DC but in the end, they held off PBKS by 15 runs despite Liam Livingstone’s 94 off 48.
Chennai Super Kings have 15 points and are in a must-win situation to reach the playoffs. Their net run-rate reads 0.381 and have a chance to finish in the top two. CSK lost their previous game against Kolkata Knight Riders by six wickets.
Shivam Dube struck an unbeaten 48 off 34 to take the side to 144 on a tricky deck. Deepak Chahar picked three wickets in the powerplay but the CSK bowlers had no answers to Rinku Singh and Nitish Rana.
