Delhi Capitals (DC) co-owner Parth Jindal has urged his team to keep fighting after their loss to Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) on Monday.
DC lost by 9 wickets and 81 balls to spare after being bowled out for just 75 runs in the match at Delhi. The result left everyone stunned as the Delhi Capitals went through arguably the worst collapse in recent memory in the IPL.
The loss has now put a dent in their chances of making the playoffs.
RCB won the toss and invited the home side to bat. The decision was vindicated as Bhuvneshwar Kumar prised out debutant Sahil Parakh on the second ball of the match. That was just a sign of things to come.
Bhuvneshwar and his new-ball partner Josh Hazlewood struck thrice each in the powerplay to leave Delhi at 8/6 - the worst start in IPL history. Delhi would eventually muster just 13/6 in the powerplay - the lowest score in IPL history with the field restrictions up.
Impact Player Abhishek Porel and David Miller managed a 35-run stand that saved Delhi from the humiliation of being bowled out for the lowest total in IPL history.
Poreal made a fighting 30, but Delhi could make just 75 runs and leave a target of 76 for RCB.
RCB needed just 39 deliveries to complete the chase as Devdutt Padikkal made a quickfire unbeaten 34. RCB's win by 81 balls to spare is the second-largest win margin in IPL history by balls spared.
Although RCB are still second on the points table, they now have the best net run rate in the league, something that would help their cause in the backend of the season.
Parth Jindal urges the team to move on and fight
Following the loss, Delhi Capitals co-owner Parth Jindal took to X with a message to keep believing. He told the team that they must keep fighting and keep believing. He also said that there was no better time to stay together.
In their last match, Delhi Capitals were unable to defend a target of 265 against Punjab Kings at the very same ground. They are also on a three-match losing streak right now.
Stay together more than ever now @DelhiCapitals - really very tough to take but we must keep fighting and keep believing.
