DC Vs MI Live Score: JFM is our player of the match!

Not surprisingly, Jake Fraser-McGurk wins the player of the match award for his sensational 27-ball 84. Eleven fours, six humongous sixes to set the tone for DC's mammoth score; the promising cricketer certainly deserves the reward. 

DC Vs MI Live Score: Match summary

The game that began with Jake Fraser-McGurk's onslaught on MI bowlers saw truckloads of runs being scored by batters from both sides. 

Bowlers continued to have a forgettable day as the IPL 2024 witnessed yet another run-fest. However, it was DC who emerged as the better team across departments. 

Barring Fraser-McGurk and Tristan Stubbs, the Capitals saw Rasikh Salam emerging as their hero. A game to remember for DC as they secure their fifth win of the season. They are well and truly alive in the playoffs race. 

On the other hand, heart goes out to Tilak Varma, who fought till the very end but couldn't get his side past the finish line. Take a bow, Champ!

DC Vs MI Live Score: Agony for MI, ecstasy for DC!

Despite the valiant last-over attempts from Chawla and Wood, MI fall short of the target by ten runs. 

A 258-run total was anyway not going to be chased ideally, but kudos to the Blue & Gold army for getting so close. Congratulations to Delhi Capitals for holding their nerves and defending the total. z

DC Vs MI Live Score: Tilak Varma gets run out, all over for MI? 

In a desperate attempt to get the strike, Tilak Varma opts to run two and gets run out! I guess it's all over for the visitors. Can Wood and Chawla score 22 off the final four? It doesn't happen in an ideal world. 

DC Vs MI Live Score: Can DC defend 25 in the final over?

Tilak and Chawla run three in the last ball of the penultimate over and it's Tilak who will be on strike in the final over. MI need 25 more, can Mukesh Kumar stop them from going past the finish line? 

DC Vs MI Live Score: Rasikh gets another, no party for Nabi

After hitting a gigantic 90m maximum, veteran finisher Mohammad Nabi hits it straight to the fielder. Mumbai Indians are losing the plot here, Rasikh Salam gets his third. 

DC Vs MI Live Score: 6, 4, 6, W! Mukesh strikes as David bites the dust

The over started on an extraordinary note for MI, with Tim David demoralising Mukesh Kumar with two sixes and a boundary. 

But while replicating the slog, the hard-hitting Australian gets trapped plumb in front. MI need 48 from 14 balls, life's getting tough for the MI fans. 

DC Vs MI Live Score: Take a bow, Rasikh!

The young pacer from J&K is yet again making an impact in the game. He delivers an excellent over, studded with inch-perfect yorkers, conceding just seven off the 17th. 

DC Vs MI Live Score: MI need 71 off 24 balls, gettable? 

Despite some late blitz from Tilak and Tim David, MI still need 71 off just 24 balls to win this fixtures. 

Although it's a daunting task, the DC bowlers must keep the basics right, as we have seen batting lineups achieving the unachievable totals this IPL. 

DC Vs MI Live Score: Tilak finally gets some sixes, is it too late?

After struggling to time the ball initially, Tilak Varma finally manages to get some boundaries under his belt. But with his team needing 85 off 30, we reckon it's too late from the dynamic southpaw. 

DC Vs MI Live Score: MI falling like a pack of cards

After getting Hardik, Rasikh gets the prized breakthrough of Nehal Wadhera, who departs for a two-ball four. MI's defeat seems inevitable now as the young seamer has broken their back with a clinical spell. 

DC Vs MI Live Score: Rasikh Salam gets Hardik, MI in tatters

Straight up in the air and Mukesh Kumar doesn't drop those! Rasikh Salam's variation does the trick as he deceives MI captain. Dare I say it's DC's game to lose from here?

DC Vs MI Live Score: Hardik goes big, Mukesh is stunned!

After being quiet for a while, Hardik Pandya hits a monstrous six and this time it's Mukesh Kumar who faces the wrath of the MI skipper. Welcome boundary for the five-time champions, but they need it more frequently with just 50 balls left. 

DC Vs MI Live Score: 6, 4! Tilak joins the party

This has been some partnership between Tilak Varma and Hardik Pandya. After the skipper went berserk against Kuldeep, Tilak targets Axar Patel to finish the tenth over with a boundary and a six. 50 partnership comes up, MI are crawling back into the game. 

DC Vs MI Live Score: Kung-Fu Pandya thrashes Kuldeep!

The ninth over must've given the much needed impetus to MI's innings, as Hardik Pandya unleashes his beast mode against DC's premier spinner Kuldeep Yadav. Three fours followed by a huge six to get MI post 100. 

DC Vs MI Live Score: HP breaks the shackles with a six!

Just when the DC spinners were putting a brake on MI's scoring rate, skipper Hardik Pandya sends one straight down the ground for a six. Although 258 still seems a distant dream, a cameo from the skipper might take MI close to the target. 

DC Vs MI Live Score: Build Khaleel a statue, DC!

Khaleel Ahmed brings smiles back to the DC camp as he gets Suryakumar Yadav, who was running away with the chase. I think this is the biggest wicket the hosts needed. MI are in huge trouble. 

DC Vs MI Live Score: SKY is taking on DC

Despite losing Ishan, Suryakumar Yadav is going berserk at one end. Two boundaries from the T20 batting maestro to finish the fifth. MI needs many more like this from him today. He tonks Khaleel for a one-handed six over fine leg as we speak. 

DC Vs MI Live Score: Mukesh comes, Ishan goes!

Just when it seemed MI would recover from Rohit's wicket, Mukesh Kumar instantly strikes by dismissing the dangerous Ishan Kishan. 

A harmless length ball miscued and caught by the mid off fielder. Ishan must be disappointed with his dismissal. DC are in the driving seat. 

DC Vs MI Live Score: SKY says welcome to IPL, Khaleel!

The departure of Rohit brings Suryakumar Yadav into the middle and what an incredible shot to get off the mark from India's Mr 360. Khaleel angles it away as SKY launches his trademark shot to collect six runs. 

DC Vs MI Live Score: Khaleel strikes, HITMAN departs!

Khaleel Ahmed has provided DC with a breakthrough and it's Rohit Sharma who needs to go back. 

The Hitman didn't look in rhythm and needed one shot to get going. But as he tries to break the shackles, he hits it straight to the mid off. Khaleel is ecstatic, DC are on top. 

DC Vs MI Live Score: Signs of aggression from Ishu Kishu!

MI needs someone to play like Jake Fraser-McGurk and Ishan seems to have taken that responsibility. 

The keeper-batter has taken on Khaleel Ahmed here, smashing him for three consecutive boundaries. He is not letting Khaleel get his lines right. An interesting battle this is. 

DC Vs MI Live Score: An eventful over from Williams

It was such an eventful over from Lizaad Williams, who is playing his first game for DC. 

He fell over even before delivering his first ball, bowled some thunderbolts to surprise a stalwart like Rohit, but eventually ended up conceding 14 runs. Right, Khaleel Ahmed comes into the attack from the other end. 

DC Vs MI Live Score: Edged but safe 👀

In the airrrr and falls in no man's land!! A pacy corker from Lizaad Williams as he makes Sharma miscue one in the air. Pant and Stubbs run backward only to see the ball fall safe. Rohit got lucky there, I must say. 

DC Vs MI Live Score: It's time for the chase!

Hello and welcome back for the chase. MI need to chase a mammoth 258-run total to win this match. Tough but is it impossible? Only time will tell. Rohit and Ishan to open for MI, Lizaad Williams to start the proceedings for the Capitals!

DC Vs MI Live Score: Innings Summary!

Well, Pant mentioned during the toss that he would have loved to bat first after losing the toss. Safe to say, he read the conditions magnificently, with red-hot Jake Fraser-McGurk continuing to flourish since coming to the mix of things.

Shai Hope played a handy knock here as well, smashing 41 off just 17 balls while Tristan Stubbs came up with lusty blows in the end, taking the total above 250 with ease.

This is Ritam, signing off as of now, and the time has come for my friend Debashish Sarangi to take you through the second innings.

DC Vs MI Live Score: Stubbs Power Delhi To 257/4

17 runs came off the final over, bowled by Nuwan Thushara, who finished with 56/0 off his four overs. Stubbs remained not out on 48, while Axar scored 11 off six deliveries.

DC Vs MI Live Score: Tristan 'AB' Stubbs, Ladies & Gentlemen!

Stubbs reaches to 47 off 24, courtesy of a simple drop catch by Nehal Wadhera. Thushara should have got a wicket here.

DC Vs MI Live Score: What A 19th Over!

Just six runs. This is Jasprit Bumrah for you! Never-ever dare to doubt him. His figures read 4-0-35-1.

DC Vs MI Live Score: Bumrah Into The Attack!

And he gets Rishabh Pant for the seventh time in IPL. Rohit Sharma takes a well-judged catch near the boundary line. Pant falls for 29 off 19 deliveries.

Delhi are 235/5 after 18.1 overs.

DC Vs MI Live Score: Stubbs Needs To Attack!

While Pant is going at his natural fearless manner, Stubbs is batting on 13* off 14 balls. Come on, Stubbs! It's time for revenge against your former franchise.

And he delivers straightaway. 4, 4, 6, 4, 4, 4! In the meantime, Luke Wood has crossed a fine half-century, off 3.2 overs. He finished with expensive figures of 4-0-68-1.

Just to confirm you, this is the 25th time a team has crossed 200-run mark this season. Ridiculous!

DC Vs MI Live Score: Pitch Report! 

By Danny Morrison & Sanjay Manjrekar

Morrison: "To be back in the capital for a day game, with not a cloud in the sky, and they tell me the temperature is almost hitting 40 degrees Celsius, reaching 39 degrees for an afternoon fixture. Dimensions - square boundaries, 59 & 64 meters, and for a straight hit, it is 73 meters."

Manjrekar: "I come from Mumbai, and I've played a lot here. In fact, my Test debut was on this ground. The only difference I notice today is that the pitch is quite bare—there's no grass here. You would think, 'Wow, that's going to be brilliant for the spinner.' I think it's going to be slightly better for the spinners. The issue for the bowlers is that it's rock hard—like a sheet of marble. Very, very hard.

So, with no grass, it will allow spinners to get some turn. When you look at the spin attack, Nabi and Piyush Chawla for Mumbai Indians, and Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel for Delhi Capitals. So, there's a slight advantage for the bowling attack of Delhi when you compare the spin attack of Mumbai Indians. But for the seamers, nothing much."

DC Vs MI Live Score: Fantasy Tips! 🎩

In case you are a fantasy freak, here are some tips for you, analyzed by our expert, Probuddha Bhattacharjee.

Scenario: If Delhi Capitals win the toss

The DC skipper might look to bat first on winning the toss. Jake Fraser-McGurk and Rishabh Pant will be the most important picks from the DC batting, irrespective of the toss. Prithvi Shaw could be a differential choice as the C or VC for the match. 

As far as the bowlers, Kuldeep Yadav is the most relevant choice as the C or VC from the DC bowling. However, if you are looking to take risks, Khaleel Ahmed will not be a bad option.

Scenario: If Mumbai Indians win the toss

Rohit Sharma has been in good form in the tournament. However, in the last couple of matches, his bat has stayed quiet. A big knock from the Indian skipper is loading, and this could well be his day. Along with Sharma, Suryakymar Yadav will be another safe C or VC choice for the game. 

Jasprit Bumrah has looked in excellent form with the ball in the tournament. He is their prime wicket-taker and will be a very important choice as the C or VC of the match. 

DC Vs MI Live Score: The Stage Is Set! 🏟️

DC Vs MI Live Score: Match Preview!

Before the high-voltage clash begins under the scorching heat in Delhi, you can read the match preview written by one of our own writers, Muskaan Bhatt.

Delhi Capitals

For DC, skipper Rishabh Pant has been the driving force behind their recent successes. His spectacular batting form, coupled with inspiring leadership, has injected new life into the Capitals. Pant's unbeaten 88* against Gujarat Titans in the previous match showcased his ability to single-handedly turn the tide in his team's favor. 

Supported by Axar Patel's explosive 66 off 43 and Tristan Stubbs's cameo, DC posted a formidable total of 224/4. While their bowling showed some vulnerability, particularly in the last over against Gujarat Titans, DC ultimately held their nerve to secure a crucial victory.

Heading into the clash against MI, DC will be banking on Pant's consistency with the bat and his astute captaincy to guide them to another triumph. Additionally, they will look to address any bowling frailties and maintain their composure under pressure, especially in the crucial death overs.

Mumbai Indians

On the other hand, MI finds themselves in a precarious position after a string of disappointing performances. Despite flashes of brilliance from individual players like Mohammad Nabi and Tilak Varma, MI's overall team performance has been inconsistent. 

The recent nine-wicket defeat to Rajasthan Royals exposed their batting vulnerabilities and highlighted the need for a collective effort from the team.

As they prepare to face DC, MI will be eager to bounce back and reclaim their winning momentum. With seasoned campaigners like Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan in their ranks, MI possesses the firepower to turn the tables on any given day. 

However, they will need to address their batting collapses and tighten up their fielding to stand a chance against a resurgent DC side.

Good Afternoon, Cricket Geeks! ⚔️
