That is the coverage of the DPL. For now, this is me Hrutuja Deshmukh signing off on behalf of my co-commentator Saptak Sanyal, who, alongside our scorer/analyst Raju Khariya brought you all the live action of this fixture. We will meet again. Until then, cheers!
Sujal Singh(Player of the Match): "Anuj helped me a lot on the field and he guided me a lot in there, we planned for each other and we talked about our intend on the field. I am grateful for such a tournament and my batting partner today."
Anuj Rawat(Player of the Match): "I was waiting for a big innings. This innings is going to give me and the team a lot of confidence. We batted first in the last game and learned that keeping the intent is the key."
Players of the Match: Anuj Rawat and Sujal Singh
Himmat Singh(East Delhi Riders Captain): "We discusse a lot in our dressing room about batting first but our openers did a commendable job. So no other guy got a chance. We were confident with 242-run target to defend but we tried to win by a big margin.
Yes the ball was wet but I also think that the ball comes from air when you are taking the catch. So we should stop dropping the catch."

Arpit Rana(Purani Delhi-6 Captain): "The target was not that much, just it was 10-15 runs more. We thought to put Vansh for the last 7-8 overs. His game is really impressive. The team environment is really good and we played brilliant cricket. The support staff are supporting us and hope we will do well in the next match."
22:57 IST and Local Time | What an absolute thriller we've just witnessed here in the 20th match of the Delhi Premier League! Tonight, it was the East Delhi Riders taking on the Purani Delhi-6, and boy, did we see some fireworks! The East Delhi Riders set the stage ablaze with a colossal target of 242 runs, and what a show it was. In the end, they clinched the victory by a commanding margin of 26 runs.
Let's dive into the action, starting with that explosive first innings. For the East Delhi Riders, it was all about two standout performances. Anuj Rawat led the charge with a sensational 121* off just 66 balls, while Sujal Singh matched him blow for blow with a blistering 108* off 57 balls. They were simply unstoppable, taking the total to a massive 241 runs, leaving Purani Delhi-6 with a mountain to climb.
Coming into the chase, Purani Delhi-6 struggled to find their rhythm until Vansh Bedi stepped onto the crease. What an innings he played! Bedi smashed a breathtaking 96 off just 41 balls, putting on a show for the ages. Arpit Rana chipped in with 27 off 28 balls, and Arnav Bugga added a quickfire 28 off 13 balls, but it just wasn’t enough. In the end, there were small contributions from the lower order, with Mayank Gusain scoring 14 off 8 balls, Shivam Sharma 15 off 7, and Yug Gupta 15* off 5. But despite these efforts, they fell short, ending their innings 30 runs shy of the target.
On the bowling front, East Delhi Riders were clinical. Harsh Tyagi was the pick of the bowlers, taking 3 crucial wickets, while Bhagwan Singh, Mayank Rawat, and Himmat Singh chipped in with wickets as well, putting the brakes on the Purani Delhi chase.
