A fine finish for the Capitals - 49 runs came off the last 3 overs, and that has allowed Delhi to post a fighting total. It was a grind for most part of their innings on a sticky wicket, but that late flourish has meant that they will carry that momentum into the break. On the other hand, the Chennai Super Kings will be a bit disappointed with the finish, having had the home side in check going into the death overs.
Mitchell Starc is in next, but it will be Sameer Rizvi on strike for the final ball.
