At the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Wednesday, the Delhi Capitals won the toss and captain Rishabh Pant chose to field first against Shubman Gill's Gujarat Titans.
However, GT's day was doomed from the off as DC's pacers caused havoc and the batting order was unable to get any traction. With the ball, Mukesh Kumar was most impressive, going three for three, while Ishant Sharma also contributed with a couple of outstanding overs.
When it seemed all hope was gone, Rashid Khan entered the game and added 31 runs, more than a third of his team's total, as GT was bowled out for a franchise-low 89 runs.
Although GT battled valiantly to take four wickets off the top-order, they were unable to accomplish much more, and DC finished the match in only 8.5 overs, which is the sixth-fastest victory in IPL history.
