RR finish on 188 after a brilliant final over by the Aussie speedster, who also gave the hosts control in the Super Over
NEW DELHI: If you need a reminder why Mitchell Starc still fetches the big money each time he puts his name in the IPL players auction, just watch the last over he bowled to Rajasthan Royals at the death on Wednesday night. In a match where RR seemed to have control on the chase, the Australian spearhead choked the innings by defending nine runs off the last over to force the first Super Over in the tournament since 2021.
He also bowled the all-important Super Over with Starc conceding just 11 runs, RR's innings ending with one ball to spare. Delhi Capitals trusted KL Rahul and Tristan Stubbs to get the job done against Sandeep Sharma and they did, in a matter of four balls. DC, who narrowly escaped their second loss on home turf, will be buoyed by a win where they held their nerves.
