Stubbs sends a slower ball bouncer over midwicket for six and Delhi Capitals have won the Super Over with two balls to spare and without losing a wicket. What the heck were Royals thinking trusting Sandeep Sharma over Jofra Archer, the man who has bowled a Super Over in a world cup final?

For some bizarre reason Royals have gone for Sandeep Sharma over Jofra Archer for the super over. That decision deserves to cost them the points.

#T20 #cricket appeals because it's a faster, more exciting form of the game.

Except for super overs. Which, apparently, can take as long as a test match to complete.

Stubbs and Rahul batting for Capitals.

Second successive run out, and Royals end with 11 runs from their over. Capitals thus need 12, presumably with Archer who has previous experience of bowling Super Overs to do the honours.

leg side wide by Starc but the batters try to increase their good fortune and a run out ensues, bringing Jaiswal in and meaning that one more wicket ends it.

An indifferent Super Over for Starc has just got worse - the fourth delivery has been called no ball, which means it is 10-0 with three balls to go.

Single off the final ball, which means that we have a super over to split the teams.

Single, as Jurel turns down the second. One ball to go, two rune needed and Jurel has the strike.

Two balls to go, three runs needed.

Final over coming up, nine needed to win for Rajasthan Royals and Mitchell Starc to bowl it.
#cricket #T20 #IPL #DCvRR

Delhi Capitals end on 188-5 from their 20 overs. Sandeep Sharma has just provided a demonstration of how not to bowl the 20th over of an innings, taking 11 deliveries to get through it and leaking 19 runs in the process.

Jansen bowls Russell and that means that Punjab Kings have defended a score of 111 by bowling Kolkata Knight Riders out for 95. At one point KKR were 62-2. Kings win by 16 runs. Not that anyone involved in running this tournament will take a blind bit of notice but this kind of game is much more fun that one side scoring 240 and the other making that look like a failure in reply.
#cricket #T20 #IPL #PBKSvKKR

Arshdeep Singh has Arora caught behind to make 95-9. Wicket maiden for Arshdeep Singh in a T20 to give him 3-1-11-1. Russell will be on strike at the start of the new over, with Nortje at the non-strikers end.
#cricket #T20 #IPL #PBKSvKKR

Big over for KKR - 16 off it, over doubling Chahal's cost for the evening - he finishes with 4-0-28-4, BUT Russell has not retained the strike for the next over and 17 are still needed.
#cricket #T20 #IPL #PBKSvKKR

Marco Jansen bowls Harshit Rana and KKR are 79-8, still needing a further 33, with Anrich Nortje and Vaibhav Arora to come (in the order I have just listed them)..
#Cricket #T20 #IPL #PBKSvKKR

Are KKR about to blunder a chase of 112? They are now 76-6, so 36 still needed. Make that 76-7, as Ramandeep Singh top edges an attempted paddle sweep to fo for a first ball 0.
