Delhi Win: Tewatia chops one on to the stumps. Rabada has removed him for 38 in the last over. And he takes a third, as Aaron is out. Delhi have won by 46 runs here.
IPL 2020 Live Score RR 136-8: Nortje comes for the penultimate over. And Tewatia is not keen to give the strike to Kartik. Some runs are coming in here, but certainly not here. 49 to win from the last over.
IPL 2020 Live Score RR 121-8: Shimron Hetmyer is some fielder in the deep. He has yet another catch, and this time Gopal is out. All but over for Rajasthan here.
IPL 2020 Live Score RR 120-7: Tewatia has a six here. He slams Nortje over the boundary. But it's too little, too late for Rajasthan. He follows it up with a four. Looks impossible for Rajasthan.
IPL 2020 Live Score RR 100-7: This looks all but over for the Royals. They need boundaries in a heap. But in the middle of this, Rabada has bowled a no ball. Tewatia has a four on a low full toss. And Archer is gone too. Rabada has a wicket and Archer is out.
IPL 2020 Live Score RR 90-6: Axar Patel into the attack once again. He starts with three balls, and what's going on here. Another one bites the dust here. This time Andrew Tye is caught in the deep.
IPL 2020 Live Score RR 82-5: Here is another wicket here. This time Jaiswal's struggling stay at the wicket comes to an end. He is castled by Stoinis for 34.
IPL 2020 Live Score RR 76-4: And R Ashwin has another wicket here, this time he gets Lomror. What is happening to Rajasthan. He departs for 1 and Delhi are on top here.
IPL 2020 Live Score RR 72-3: Stoinis comes into the attack and he is smacked for a mighty six by Jaiswal. And what has Samson done here. He goes for the big shot, but is caught in the deep.
IPL 2020 Live Score RR 65-2: Axar Patel comes into the attack now. Jaiswal is still dealing in singles at the moment. That would put a lot of pressure on Samson.
IPL 2020 Live Score RR 56-2:Hetmyer has pulled off a blinder. Nortje pitches one on Smith's legs, and Hetmyer takes an excellent catch. Smith is out for 24.
IPL 2020 Live Score RR 41-1: Time for a change in the bowling. Harshal Patel comes into the attack. And finally Jaiswal has a six in the IPL. He pulls Patel for a massive six. That would give him a lot of confidence.
IPL 2020 Live Score RR 30-1: Rabada bowls one on Smith's legs and the latter flicks it for a six. He was nearly caught at the boundary, but that wasn't to be. In fact Smith ends the over with a four.
IPL 2020 Live Score RR 15-1:This is poor batting by Buttler. Ashwin tosses one up, and he mistimes the ball. He gives a simple catch to Shikhar Dhawan at short square leg.
IPL 2020 Live Score RR 10-0: So Kagiso Rabada starts the proceedings for Delhi. But Buttler has two boundaries in the first over itself. That would be an advantage going further in the match.
IPL 2020 Live Score, DC 184/8, 20 overs; Fantastic end to the innings from Archer, but have Delhi batted them out given the duo of Rabada and Nortje's abilities. We'll be back for the chase soon.
WICKET! Harshal Patel gone for 16 as he looks to swing big against Archer in the final over. But Tewatia takes a good catch.
IPL 2020 Live Score, DC 181/7, 19 overs: Very eventful over with Axar taking on Tye and putting him away for two fours and a SIX straight back over his head. A beamer raced away for a boundary too but Axar lost his wicket trying to attack the final delivery.
IPL 2020 Live Score, DC 159/6, 18 overs: Archer goes for 10 runs with Harshal Patel putting the wide one away to extra cover off the final delivery. A couple of wides too spoils it for Archer.
IPL 2020 Live Score, DC 149/6, 17 overs: Hetmyer looks to go for a third big hit against Tyagi but holes out at long on where Tewatia takes a good catch. Hetmyer who smashed two SIXES just before getting out is gone for 45.
IPL 2020 Live Score, DC 135/5, 16 overs: 13 runs of Tye as Hetmyer got stuck in with a baseball like hit over the bowler for four and then a SIX over extra cover! What a hit that was.
IPL 2020 Live Score, DC 122/5, 15 overs: 11 runs of Tyagi's over but he bowled well overall. One down legside gets helped away for a SIX but he responded with a sharp yorker. No big hits other than that one for DC.
IPL 2020 Live Score, DC 111/5, 14 overs: Tewatia bowls out with figures of 1/20 against Delhi. He would have enjoyed that thoroughly. Will Smith go for the jugular now?
IPL 2020 Live Score, DC 109/5: WICKET! Tewatia has struck for the Royals and Stoinis is gone for 30. Soft dismissal as he looks to connect with a wide one and hands Smith an easy catch at cover. Big wicket for the Royals.
IPL 2020 Live Score, DC 107/4, 13 overs: Fairly expensive 11 run over from Tye as Hetmyer pulls him away for a SIX mid over. No more big hits through the over but expect these two to go soon.
IPL 2020 Live Score, DC 96/4, 12 overs: Four singles from Tewatia's third over with Hetmyer and Stoinis taking no risks so far. But how far before they use the long levers?
Delhi Win: Tewatia chops one on to the stumps. Rabada has removed him for 38 in the last over. And he takes a third, as Aaron is out. Delhi have won by 46 runs here.

Can RR do it?
Rajasthan need 129 in 71 in Sharjah but they have

- Jaiswal sans fluency
- an inconsistent Samson
- Lomror, with T20 SR < 120
- Tewatia (I still don't know what to make of him)
- Archer, who can slog but not sustain
- Gopal, can bat but not score quickly
What are the odds?

IPL 2020 Delhi Capitals vs Rajasthan Royals, Latest Updates IPL 2020 Live Score: Delhi Win: Tewatia chops one on to the stumps. Rabada has removed him for 38 in the last over. And he takes a third, as Aaron is out. Delhi have won by 46 runs here.
PREVIEW: Delhi Capitals (DC) will have a chance to go to the top of the points table if they beat Rajasthan Royals (RR) in their next encounter scheduled to be held at Sharjah – this will be match 23 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020. DC is currently at number 2 on the points table but have a game in hand – they are the only team who have lost just one match in the tournament thus far. DC have been the most formidable unit in IPL 2020 so far and the results have proven the balance in their side. The batting is firing – Prithvi Shaw has made three significant contributions which have resulted in three wins for the Capitals. Shreyas Iyer is their leading run-scorer while Rishabh Pant, though not at his best, has threatened to be destructive. Shikhar Dhawan continues to play the role of the accumulator at the top though the IPL veteran would be looking for a big contribution. Marcus Stoinis has been the trump card for DC – he has won them two matches with the bat and is a useful bowling option too.
Kagiso Rabada continues to be the lead bowler for the Capitals – he is the highest wicket-taker of IPL 2020 thus far with 12 wickets in 5 matches striking every 10 deliveries. He has also been difficult to get away and has an economy rate of 7.5 in the competition. Axar Patel has been the unsung hero for DC – he has been the most economical bowler of the tournament conceding at just 4.57 runs per over – his efforts are even more commendable as he has not only bowled in the middle overs but also in the powerplay. RR have been on a downhill slope after starting the tournament brilliantly with two stupendous wins in Sharjah. Since then, they have lost three out of three. Sanju Samson and Steven Smith, who were at the destructive best in the first two matches, have now registered three consecutive single-digit scores. The only positive for RR from their 57 drubbing at the hands of Mumbai Indians in Abu Dhabi was the return of form of Jos Buttler . Robin Uthappa needs to contribute in the middle order – he has just managed to muster 33 runs in 4 innings. May be RR need to shuffle their batting order and open with him.
RR’s bowling is still heavily dependent on Jofra Archer. He has picked 5 wickets and also been their most restrictive bowler with an economy rate of 7.1 in the tournament. RR would hope that a return back to Sharjah would change their luck too.
