The inept technique of young Indian batters against top quality fast bowling compounded Delhi Capitals' worries as they succumbed to an embarrassing six-wicket defeat at the hands of defending champions Gujarat Titans in an IPL match in New Delhi on Tuesday. Mohammed Shami (3/41 in 4 overs) and Alzarri Joseph (2/29 in 4 overs) intimidated the Delhi top-order in the first 10 overs while Rashid Khan (3/31 in 4 overs) hardly faced any trouble keeping the batters under check to restrict the home team to a below-par 162 for 8. Despite Anrich Nortje (2/39 in 4 overs)'s best efforts, young Sai Sudharsan (62 not out off 48 balls) anchored the chase calmly with Titans winning their second successive game in 18. 1 overs.

Strange things often happen in cricket, just as in life. One such thing happened in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 game between Delhi Capitals and Gujarat Titans at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Tuesday. Batting first, hosts Delhi Capitals notched a fighting 162/8 in 20 overs with their skipper David Warner (37) top-scoring. However, Warner got lucky once on the first legal ball of the match itself after GT had opted to bowl. A delivery from Shami brushed Warner's off-stump, but the bails did not light up or move as the Australian got a reprieve. GT wicketkeeper Wriddhiman was left stunned.
