दिल्ली vs पंजाब, मैच 35, अरुण जेटली स्टेडियम, दिल्ली, 25 April 2026 - हाइलाइट्स

WIDE! A bit too straightish, down leg at 130.3 kph. Nehal misses to whip that away.

WIDE! Reload again! Tries to target the pads, does T Natarajan, but slides one way down the leg stump line, on a fuller length. Nehal gets inside the line to leave. Tristan Stubbs appeals for caught behind, but it wanes down as quickly as the umpire shakes his head.

 FOUR! Just over! Full toss, outside off. Nehal Wadhera slices it flatly over backward point. Dushmantha Chameera there leaps and seemingly gets the fingertips of his right hand on the ball, but it deflects behind to the ropes.

WIDE! Good review by Wadhera! Deceptive pace-off, short and wide outside off. Wadhera hops in the crease and carves it over the in-field, but fails to put his bat on the ball. Fair delivery called, but the Kings have gone upstairs to challenge the decision for wide not given. Was that too high? Or wide? The batter is in his normal position when the ball is released so the guideline stays as it is. The replay shows that there is some part of the ball inside the guideline. Now, the height on the ball is being checked as well. The side-on angle comes up with the Ball Tracking. And it confirms that the ball has passed above his head. The TV umpire also wants to check the UltraEdge in case Wadhera nicked it. But it comes up with a flat line. Wide for height is called and the on-field decision is overturned.

Short into the pitch, angled into the bodyline. Wadhera swivels and mistimes the pull in the air, but lands safely in front of deep mid-wicket for a single.

Aimed at the pads, on a good length, skidding through. Iyer tucks it to deep mid-wicket's right and calls for two straightaway, but Sameer Rizvi is quick to get to the ball and keeps it down to a single only.

 SIX! Helped on its way! T Natarajan errs in both line and length. He angles the ball on the pads, and the length is short as well. Nehal Wadhera has enough time to get on the back foot and pull it comfortably over deep fine leg for a massive six.

Slips a full toss, outside off. Wadhera stands deep in the crease and scythes it to deep point for a single.

Good deception this time! Slower ball, short and angled across the right-hander. Shreyas Iyer prepares himself to play the back foot square cut on the off side, but is early in his shot and misses to connect.

 FOUR! What a shot that is! Pushed fuller, on middle, Nehal Wadhera reverse sweeps it aerially to the right of deep square leg. Dushmantha Chameera charges to his right and extends his right hand to palm the ball back in but fails to do so.

 FOUR! Hit with some venom! Pitched on a fuller length, just outside the off pole. Nehal Wadhera backs away to create room and nails the cover drive through the mid off and cover gap for a cracking boundary. 200 UP FOR PUNJAB KINGS!

 OUT! IN THE AIR AND CAUGHT! Nigam breaks the dangerous-looking partnership. Full and flighted on middle, Wadhera makes room once more and looks to heave it with the turn over long on. He finds the bottom of the bat, and it nearly clears the fence, but substitute fielder Karun Nair is pushed back deep and takes a well-controlled grab over his head. Wadhera's cameo is over. Punjab Kings are 201/4, needing 64 runs from 33 balls. 

An in-drifting leg break, too full on off. Shashank Singh fails to dig it out and inside edges to the leg side.

Catch it is the call, but it lands safely. A little bit of good fortune for Shashank. Full, around off, leg break. Shashank Singh slices it aerially over the extra cover region, but it lands between the two fielders in the deep. One taken.

 IN THE AIR AND PUT DOWN! That was an absolute sitter and Karun has shelled one. We have seen a few catches being put down in this game and Axar cannot quite believe it. Well flighted, pitched on length outside off. Shreyas steps down the track but fails to get underneath it and launches a mistimed hit down the ground. Nair runs in from the long off fence, gets down on his haunches, and drops an absolute sitter. Could be a big, big moment in the game. Iyer dropped on 29.

 SIX! Iyer rubs salt to the injury of Karun right away. Tossed up, around the pads, Shreyas Iyer gets inside the line and smashes this up and over the fence towards long leg for a biggie. 

Second drop by Karun and that off Iyer again. Unbelievable scenes in Delhi. Wrong'un around middle and off, Shreyas Iyer looks to go big but mishits this and ends up ballooning this over long on. Karun Nair runs in from the fence and settles underneath it by crouching low but ends up dropping a regulation chance. 

 FOUR! Sprinkles salt on DC's wounds, does Shreyas. Overpitched delivery, on the stumps. Shreyas Iyer drills it powerfully down the ground and beats the long off fielder's slide to his right as well.

WIDE! Fuller one, googly, pitched outside leg. Iyer shuffles inside the line and goes for the sweep and misses. Stubbs collects the ball to his left and goes up in appeal for caught behind, but the umpire turns it down and signals wide. Stubbs wants Axar to refer this one. And a review is taken. UltraEdge shows that there is a clear gap between bat and pad. A flat line and there is no contact with his pad either. The on-field decision is upheld. DC lose a review.

 SIX! This has been sent into orbit by Iyer. Googly, read well by Iyer as he shuffles back and across and pulls this over the fence and deep into the crowd towards the deep mid-wicket region for a massive six. 

 SIX! FIFTY FOR SHREYAS IYER. Off just 26 balls. A flat biggie this time. Fuller around off, Shreyas Iyer goes down on a knee and slog sweeps this over the fence towards the cow corner region for six more. Another true captain's knock from him and he is guiding the Kings to a very famous and historic win if they manage to pull this off. But his presence in the middle is paramount for the visitors.

Wrong'un around off, Shreyas Iyer rocks back and looks to cut at it but gets beaten as the ball spins further away from the batter. 

Yorker, on middle and leg, Shashank Singh flicks this to deep mid-wicket for a single. 

Wide yorker, around leg, Shreyas comes inside the line and looks to work this towards the fine leg region but misses out. The umpire doesn't call it a wide and Iyer asks for a review on that. The replay shows that Iyer has stepped a long way back and across as he looks to play his stroke before missing out. The TV umpire rules that had Iyer been in a normal stance, the ball would have struck his pads. Review lost.

 SIX! Full toss, on middle and leg, Shreyas Iyer shuffles back and across and flicks this just over the fence towards the right of deep mid-wicket fielder for a biggie. 

 FOUR! It is raining boundaries again. Good length, wide of off, Iyer thumps this up and over the fielder at extra cover and the ball races to the fence for four. 

Yorker, on middle and off, Iyer punts this down to long on for a single. 

 FOUR! 16 off the 17th over and PBKS are in touching distance now. Wide yorker, around off, Shashank Singh looks to slog this around the leg side but gets an outside edge that takes the ball over Mukesh Kumar at short third for a boundary. 

On a length, around the pads, Shreyas Iyer flicks this in the gap between deep square leg and deep mid-wicket and calls for two straightaway. Shashank Singh doesn't want to risk the second and settles for one. 

Yorker, around middle and leg, Singh has a big swing at it but manages to hit this off the inner half of his bat through square leg for one. 

Another yorker, nailed on off, Iyer opens his bat face and guides this through backward point for a run. 20 needed off 15.

 SIX! Slower one, short and around off, Shashank Singh goes back inside the crease and pulls this over the fence towards the cow corner region for a biggie. Just 14 needed of 14 balls now. 

Yorker, on middle and leg, SS flicks this to the right of deep mid-wicket for one run.

Slower one, full and around off, Shreyas Iyer drives this to extra cover for a dot. 

 FOUR! How nicely done! Natarajan misses the yorker and lands a low full toss outside off. Shashank is deep in the crease, shuffles across and scoops it beautifully between the keeper and short fine leg. It stays up momentarily before running away to the fence.

T Natarajan nails the wide yorker around off, SS has a swing at it but misses out. 

Full toss, around the pads, Shashank Singh flicks this through mid-wicker for just one. 

 SIX! An exhibition of six-hitting by Iyer. Low full toss, around off, Shreyas Iyer plants his back foot deep inside the crease and slogs this out of the park towards the deep mid-wicket region for a biggie. 

SCORES ARE LEVEL. Low full toss, around off, Shreyas Iyer rolls this down to long off for a single. 

WIDE! GAME, SET, AND MATCH! What a run chase this has been by Punjab as they defeat DC by 6 wickets and 7 balls to spare. Short and way too wide outside off, Shashank Singh leaves it and the umpire calls it a wide.
