In response, the Delhi Capitals team had scored 135 runs in the 12th over at the loss of two wickets at one point and the team's victory seemed easy. But after Karun Nair was out for 89 runs, the entire innings fell apart, and the Delhi Capitals team lost the match.

Vipraj Nigam took two wickets for 41 runs in four overs from the Delhi Capitals team. Apart from this, Kuldeep Yadav took two wickets for 23 runs in 4 overs. Mukesh Kumar also had success.

Karun Nair's storm came in the run chase

Chasing the target of 206 runs, Delhi lost Jack Fraser McGurk on the very first ball, who hit Deepak Chahar's ball straight into the hands of Will Jacks in the covers. Delhi brought Karun in as an impact player, and he shared a 119-run partnership with Abhishek Porel (33). This put Delhi in a strong position. Karun played a stormy game and gave wings to Delhi's run rate. During this, he scored 18 runs in one over of Bumrah and hit a fifty in 22 balls. Karun scored an IPL fifty after seven years. He did not spare any bowler of Mumbai. Karn Sharma, who was playing as an impact player in place of Rohit Sharma, gave Delhi the second blow by dismissing Porel. After this, Mumbai made a comeback.
