He then slapped one through backward point for two fours in a row.Phil Salt then got into the groove cracking a couple of fours off Harpreet Brar as the pair accumulated 13 off the over. The boundary flow didn't stop as the duo hit a total of 11 fours and a six inside the Powerplay to take DC to 65/0 at the end of the first six overs.Brar finally provided the breakthrough as he came back strong to clean up Salt (21 off 17).

It all started going downhill for Delhi Capitals from then on.The home side lost another wicket to a spinner as Rilee Rossouw mistimed his heave straight to deep mid-wicket off Brar.

The next ball saw Axar walk back as he was trapped LBW by Rahul Chahar. He too opted for a review but The onfield decision stayed as the ball was clipping leg stump - umpire's call.Brar then scalped his fourth as he cleaned up Impact Player Msh Pandey with a beauty. DC went from 74/1 to 88/6 in three overs. Aman Khan and Praveen Dubey then steadied the ship with a 30-run stand but with the required run rate creeping up, Aman (16 off 18) departed, holing out to deep mid-wicket, off Impact Player Nathan Ellis who had replaced centurion Prabhsimran Singh at the start of the second innings. It was always going to be an uphill task from then on and DC eventually fell short by 31 runs.Put to bat, PBKS did not get the ideal start as they lost wickets in the early stage of the innings.
