Match Summary: IPL 2021 – Delhi Capitals vs. Mumbai Indians (Match 46)

On October 2, 2021, the 46th match of IPL 2021 saw Delhi Capitals seize a crucial victory over Mumbai Indians at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium, successfully chasing down a modest target set by Mumbai.

Match Details:

  • Venue: Sharjah Cricket Stadium
  • Outcome: Delhi Capitals won by 4 wickets

Mumbai Indians Innings:

Batting first, Mumbai Indians struggled to find their rhythm, posting a total of 129 runs in their allotted 20 overs, with a run rate of 6.45. The team lost key wickets early in the innings, with skipper Rohit Sharma managing just 7 runs before being dismissed by Avesh Khan. Quinton de Kock showed some resistance with 19 runs, but it was Suryakumar Yadav who emerged as the top scorer for the Mumbai side with a well-made 33 runs off 40 balls, hitting 2 boundaries and 2 sixes.

Despite the contributions from Yadav and Hardik Pandya, who scored 17 runs, the rest of the batting lineup faltered. In the end, they could only muster 129 runs, which seemed inadequate on the batting-friendly Sharjah wicket.

Delhi Capitals Innings:

Chasing 130 to win, Delhi Capitals faced early setbacks, losing opener Prithvi Shaw to Krunal Pandya for just 6 runs, and Shikhar Dhawan soon followed, being run out for 8. However, captain Rishabh Pant played a crucial role in stabilizing the innings, scoring 26 runs off 29 balls, while Shreyas Iyer anchored the chase magnificently with an unbeaten 33 runs off 79 balls.

Shimron Hetmyer’s quick 15 off 10 balls, along with insightful contributions from Ravichandran Ashwin (20 runs not out) and Axar Patel (9 runs), propelled Delhi to victory with just one ball remaining. The team finished their innings at 132 runs for the loss of 6 wickets after 19.1 overs, securing their win over Mumbai by 4 wickets.

Bowling Highlights:

For Delhi, it was Avesh Khan who led the charge with the ball, claiming 3 wickets while conceding only 15 runs in his 4 overs, and Anrich Nortje contributing 1 wicket for just 19 runs. Meanwhile, Axar Patel was effective as well, bagging 3 wickets and maintaining an economic bowling rate.
