Chris Morris Powers Rajasthan Royals To Thump Delhi Capitals In Thriller
The most expensive buy of the IPL 2021, Chris Morris, showed his worth by his stunning performance that led to Rajasthan Royals' win over Delhi Capitals in Match 7. Rajasthan skipper Sanju Samson opted to chase after winning the toss and, with Jaydev Unadkat's deadly bowling figures of 3-15 in four overs, Royals summed up the in-form Capitals' batting order at a below-par score. Although, DC's captain Rishabh Pant played a sensible knock of 51 runs before throwing his wicket for a suicidal run out. DC could pushed its scoreboard to just 147 runs, losing eight wickets. Chasing the target in batsmen's paradise Mumbai's Wankhade, the start for Royals was not as per their expectations. However, while struggling at 42-5, experienced David Miller's responsible knock of 62 runs provided much needed oxygen to the Royals to remain alive in the contest. After his wicket, the cameo from Chris Morris, scoring 36 off 18 balls with four maximums, sealed the game for Rajasthan in the final over.
