... PRESENTATION TIME ...
Delhi Bulls came out with fire in their belly tonight and put on a superb bowling display. Dwayne Bravo and Adil Rashid came on early and picked up a couple of wickets each in their first overs. This set the tone and the others just kept on piling on the pressure. Dominic Drakes then came on and took the sting out of the tail as he picked up three wickets in one over and ended up with 4 overall. Some amazing ground fielding and unreal catching too added to this spirit-lifting win and Delhi Bulls qualify for the playoffs.
Abysmal is the word for Bangla Tigers batting display tonight. A team loaded with big hitters and none of them got their eye in tonight. Only the skipper, Faf du Plessis put on a fighting display but in the end, he too crumbled under pressure. Luke Fletcher did hit a few lusty blows in the end but they weren't enough. Bangla Tigers will be thoroughly disappointed with their batting display tonight and will look to get back to winning ways in the next match.
Outsmart and outclassed. That's what Delhi Bulls have done today to Bangla Tigers and halted their winning streak as well. A brilliant bowling performance and Bangla Tigers had no answers with the bat today. However, with this result both teams make it to the playoffs and The Chennai Bulls and Northern Warriors have been knocked out.
