DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Mukesh gets the big wicket and Rahane has fallen for a 30-ball 45. Slower delivery by Mukesh and Rahane tries going down the ground for a six, ends up holing out at in the deep.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: CSK 102/4 in 13.3 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: They now need to score at 13 runs an over, they are going at 7.76 at the moment. Rahane on 45 off 28, Dube on 12 off 10. Mukesh Kumar now comes in to bowl the 14th over.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: CSK 101/3 in 14 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Pant brings in Marsh to bowl the 12th over, Mukesh Kumar is still yet to bowl today, remember. Three runs off the first two balls and then Rahane gets back to back fours off the third and fourth balls. Rahane has moved to 45 off 27 at the end of that over, Impact player Shivam Dube on four off six.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: CSK 92/3 in 12 overs, need 100 to win from 48

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: CSK 75/3 in 10.2 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: The impact sub Rasikh Salam comes on for the 10th over, the third ball is onto the pads and Rahane flicks it over the boundary for a six.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: CSK 75/2 in 10 overs, need 117 to win from 60

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Oh Daryl Mitchell, smashed the third ball from Axar Patel into the clouds above Vizag for his first six of the innings. For now, one can say this is a good platform being set by Mitchell and Rahane but that is only if one of them don't end up getting dismissed a few balls later. Mitchell on 24 off 20 at the end of that over, Rahane on 26 off 20.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: CSK 58/2 in 9 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Axar Patel bowls the seventh over and, as expected, doesn't give the batters too many scoring opportunities. Mitchell on 11 off as many, Rahane on 20 off 17.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: CSK 38/2 in 7 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Rahane goes all the way over deep midwicket off the second ball of that over for which Anrich Nortje comes in. But just three runs in the over after that and DC are well on top at the end of the powerplay. Rahane has scored 18 in 14, Mitchell is on seven off eight.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: CSK 32/2 in 6 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Rahane wins the battle of Indian Test veterans against Ishant in this over. Hoicks the fifth one over midwicket to score his first boundary of the match, then he sends the last one through backward point. Rahane is on 11 off eight at the end of that over, Daryl Mitchell at the other end on one off two.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: CSK 17/2 in 4 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: A stinker at last from the Kiwi all-rounder and DC are putting an almighty strangle on CSK here. They have silenced the hostile home crowd. Ravindra has been swinging away without being able to connect in this over. He connects off the fifth ball but it is a top edge. The mid-on fielder runs in and gets in an awkward position while taking the catch, with another fielder distracting him by running in from the other end. But Tristan Stubbs is good enough to hold on to the ball despite all that.

Ravindra c Stubbs b Ahmed 2 (12)

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: CSK 7/2 in 2.5 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: This is a good start from DC. Ishant Sharma keeps the batters starved of boundaries in this over and Rahane is on one off two, Ravindra on two off eight.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Khaleel strikes with the last ball of the first over. Gets it to seam back into Gaikwad, an edge and Pant takes the catch. The CSK captain goes after facing two balls.

Gaikwad c Pant b Ahmed 1 (2)

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: CSK 3/1 in 1 over

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Allright then. Khaleel Ahmed has the ball in his hands, Ruturaj Gaikwad is on strike with Rachin Ravindra at the other end.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: A roller coaster ride of an innings that is just brimming with positives for both sides, probably more for DC though. Captain Rishabh Pant played a brilliant innings and that is a great sign of how far he has come so quickly. David Warner has finally crossed the 50 barrier but more importantly, his partnership with Prithvi Shaw has shown what DC were missing, an opening stand that does more than give a good start. For CSK, the positive goes by the name of Matheesha Pathirana.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: So CSK have what they wanted, a new batter with Axar Patel for the last over instead of Rishabh Pant. Abhishek Porel had taken a run off the last ball of Pathirana's over and so he is on strike. Mustafizur to bowl.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: DC 179/5 in 19 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: 6, 4, 4 and out. Pant goes after a full ball outside off, doesn't get the required connection and the ball goes miles up into the air. Gaikwad didn't quite settle underneath it, dives to his left while moving backward and completes a good catch.

Pant c Gaikwad b Pathirana 51 (32)

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: DC 178/5 in 18.5 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Rishabh Pant taking down Matheesha Pathirana now. The Sri Lankan misses the yorker second ball and Pant smashes it over long-on. Then almost an action replay, this time one bounce over the boundary. Pathirana then goes full and Pant creams it to the point region.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: There is Rishabh Pant. Mustafizur with a slow short delivery outside off and Pant pulls it behind square. A couple of runs off the next two balls and then Pant sends the fifth ball over deep backward square leg. A single after that and Pant stays on strike for the next over, he has scored 35 in 27 balls, Axar on five off six.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: DC 162/4 in 18 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Pathirana has been an absolute terror thus far for DC. Just five runs off him in the 17th over, he has bowled three overs for 14 runs and two wickets. Pant is on 23 off as many, Axar on four off as many.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: DC 148/4 in 17 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: An interesting battle within this battle has been one between the stadium MC and the fans. You see, the MC's whip up the home crowd, especially during pivotal moments for the home team in the match. But the only colour today in Vizag has been yellow and the only chants have been for Dhoni and CSK. This has led to comical situations where the MC would try to lead cheers of "Delhi! Delhi!" only to be answered by widespread "CSK! CSK!" cheers. There was also an instance of the crowd chanting for CSK and the MC responding by chanting for Delhi. It's a home away from home for Delhi but only officially and on paper.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024: 143/4 in 16 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Oh thunder strikes the same place twice and that is the striker's end in this over! Maybe a few inches away from the original spot though. Pathirana with a yorker last ball of the over, 149kph, Stubbs had as much of a clue about it as we would have right now of an asteroid about to strike the earth in five minutes (which is none, for those who didn't get it). The ball crashes onto middle and leg. Unreal stuff this!

Stubbs b Pathirana 0 (2)

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: DC 134/4 in 15 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Pathirana bowled the first three balls of the 15th in the 130s and then fires in a 150.4kph yorker. Too good for Marsh and the middle stump is uprooted. Extraordinary delivery from the youngster.

Marsh b Pathirana 18 (12)

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: DC 134/3 in 14.4 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Marsh goes down the ground and the ball goes over the boundary after a bounce. That makes it seven from that over. Marsh has scored six in five, Pant on three off six.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: DC 111/2 in 12 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Bang, bang and there goes DC's openers. It's Jadeja who gets the wicket here. Shaw had hit the third ball of the 11th over for a six. That was a length ball outside off which Shaw slog swept. Same delivery after that which Shaw tries to cut but it takes an outside edge. Dhoni standing up to the stumps and takes the reaction catch. Now Mitch Marsh comes.

Shaw c Dhoni b Jadeja 43 (27)

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: DC 103/2 in 10.4 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Oh Matheesha Pathirana with a screamer that makes all other screamers look like standard catches! David Warner's special innings has come to an end with a special catch. Mustafizur's third ball of the 10th is slow and full on the stumps. Warner shapes up for a reverse scoop, waits for the ball to come and then completes the shot. Pathirana dives spread eagle to his right, catches it one-handed in the air and keeps it in his hands on landing. Then he walks away like he has done nothing. But Warner throws his head back in disbelief, Dhoni cannot stop smiling as he claps and runs towards Pathirana and the DC's "home" crowd, which is almost entirely yellow by the way, explodes with glee. It is Rishabh Pant who walksmout to replace him, not Mitch Marsh.

Warner c Pathirana b Mustafizur Rahman 52 (35)

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: DC 93/1 in 9.3 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: That is Warner's 110th score of 50 or more in T20s and he thus equals Chris Gayle's world record. Warner has got there in 32 balls. He hit a six off the first ball of the ninth over from Jadeja. Then five singles and Warner is on 51 off 33 balls at the end of that over, Shaw on 34 off 22.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: DC 91/0 in 9 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Jadeja bowling the first over after powerplay, Warner gets off strike first ball and then Shaw smashes the second over deep midwicket for a six. He gets off strike and then Warner hits the fourth for a four behind square. Single to end the over and Warner has moved to 41 off 26, Shaw on 31 off 17. This opening partnership proving to be very destructive indeed.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: DC 75/0 in 7 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: 20 runs off the last over of the powerplay thanks to Prithvi Shaw. Mustafizur bowls the sixth and Warner hits a four off the firs ball. Then a bye and a no ball to boot and then Shaw sends a yorker on leg stump to the fine leg boundary with a flick. Another boundary off the third ball towards fine leg and then he punches the fourth ball handsomely through covers for his third four on the trot. A bye and a run after that and Shaw is on 24 off 15, Warner 35 off 22. DC's opening partnership remains unbeaten after the powerplay and has scored over 60 runs, is this the pair they should swear by for the rest of this season?

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: DC 62/0 in 6 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Chahar bowls his third and that goes for 18 runs. Shaw gets off strike first ball, Warner runs two off the second and then launches the third, which is nicely on the pads, over long leg. Chahar follows that up with a full toss outside off and Warner sends it through extra cover. The fifth of the over is is short on off and Warner cuts it away to the boundary over point. A single after that and Warner is on 30 off 19, Shaw on 12 off 11.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: DC 42/0 in 5 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Deshpande continues from the other end. Shaw throws hos bat at the second ball which is full outside off, the ball goes over the vacant point region to the boundary. Just a single from that over after that though and Shaw is on 11 off 10, Warner on 13 off 14.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: DC 24/0 in 4 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: But little else of note thus far for DC. Chahar bowled the third, Shaw got off strike off the first ball and then Warner sends the second ball into the stands over deep square leg. Then two runs off the fifth ball and Warner has moved to 13 off 11, Shaw on six off seven.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: DC 19/0 in 3 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Tushar Deshpande bowls the second and he almost got a wicket off the first ball, inducing an outside edge off his Mumbai teammate Prithvi Shaw, but the ball doesn't carry to their Mumbai captain Ajinkya Rahane. Two singles off the fourth and fifth deliveries.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: DC 10/0 in 2 overs

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Shaw ran two off the second ball and then a single off the third. Warner then got a boundary with a cover drive off the last ball.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score: DC 7/0 in 1 over

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Deepak Chahar is bowling to Prithvi Shaw, David Warner at the other end.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Ruturaj Gaikwad admits that there isn't much informtation that they have about this pitch. But the remains the same, keep things simple and try to win those individual moments, individual battles. Pant says that the wicket looks good and they have practiced here. They came here and got 10 days at this wicket.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Why fix that which isn't broken and all that from CSK. They are as steady as the Great Pyramid of Giza.

CSK XI: Ruturaj Gaikwad(c), Rachin Ravindra, Ajinkya Rahane, Daryl Mitchell, Ravindra Jadeja, Sameer Rizvi, MS Dhoni(w), Deepak Chahar, Tushar Deshpande, Matheesha Pathirana, Mustafizur Rahman

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Ricky Bhui has been left out and Kuldeep Yadav has a niggle, a worrying news for more than just DC with the T20 World Cup coming up after this tournament.

DC XI: Prithvi Shaw, David Warner, Mitchell Marsh, Rishabh Pant(w/c), Tristan Stubbs, Abishek Porel, Axar Patel, Anrich Nortje, Mukesh Kumar, Ishant Sharma, Khaleel Ahmed

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Rishabh Pant has won the toss and Delhi Capitals are batting first

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Allright Pant and Gaikwad are in the middle now. They are waiting for the toss to take place. The players have been warming up for a while now. No prizes for guessing which player is getting the biggest cheers. Hint: he is not playing for the “home” side Delhi Capitals.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Ruturaj Gaikwad has been dismissed twice by left-arm pacers this year. Khaleel Ahmed's efficiency and miserly bowling has been among the few silver linings for DC so far this season. It will be an interesting between these two.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Rishabh Pant has an impressive record against CSK. He has scored 324 runs in ten innings at a strike rate of 156.52. Now he has shown that he is very much back as a wicketkeeper, however he is yet to get a big score with the bat. Moreover, one would remember that there were a lot of concerns with Pant's efficiency in T20 cricket before his accident, despite his aggressive batting being so effective in Tests.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Rachin Ravindra may not have scored a half-century but with the rest of the CSK batting lineup purring along, he is doing exactly what is required of him - getting them off to a flier. Ravindra has scored 83 runs in the two matches at a strike rate of 162.74. However, considering the kind of quality he possesses, one gets the sense that a big score is only around the corner. Could it be today?

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Last season, teams, particularly the ones batting, introduced their impact players after the first innings was done. This year, we are seeing teams actually replacing players who have been dismissed with an Impact Sub. This means that we can technically replace a batter who has been dismissed with an all-rounder who was never in the playing XI. Now that, is opening up a whole pandora's box of whether the fundamentals of cricket can be messed around with or not. Moreover, there is no mention of the Impact Player rule in this season's playing conditions, which makes the entire thing illegal in the first place! Read more about this mess that no one seems to be noticing here.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: David Warner has a good record against Ravindra Jadeja. He is yet to be dismissed by the Indian all-rounder and has a strike rate of 170 against him.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Now DC's batting is a huge problem for them but make no mistake, their bowling hasn't been too effective either. Apart from Axar Patel, whose economy rate is less than six in two games, none of the other bowlers have gone for anything less than 7.50 per over.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: It is hard to imagine anything in Indian cricket today without MS Dhoni but his name wouldn't really have featured too much in the discussions that would have gone on before India's second ODI against Pakistan on April 5, 2005. The country ended up getting a glimpse of the man who would go on to redefine the meaning of success in Indian cricket. Then-India captain Sourav Ganguly promoted a young Dhoni with shoulder-length hair to No.3 ahead of himself in the match and the 23-year-old grabbed that opportunity with both hands and more. Dhoni blasted 148 in just 123 balls, thus leading India to a 58-run win. Now Dhoni and Ganguly return to that venue, both about 20 years older with the former possibly playing the final leg of his illustrious career and the latter in the opposite dugout, having hung up his boots a long, long time ago.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: CSK are golden in this department, no injuries to report. Meanwhile, Ponting said that Ishant Sharma will continue to be on the sidelines while Shai Hopes will take things "nice and easy" on the eve of the game. Jhye Richardson is available.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: DC have been content so far to open with the two Australian superstars in their team which has led to Prithvi Shaw not finding a place in the squad. However, head coach Ricky Ponting said that Shaw has been pushing hard to be included in the squad

CSK lead the head to head 19-10. Since 2020, the head to head stands at 4-4 but CSK have won the last four matches played between these two sides.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: One of the biggest problems for DC has been their top heavy batting order. If DC bring in Prithvi Shaw, they can push Mitch Marsh as one down, which could lend a bit more solidity to the top-order but the real challenge will be facing the pace-off deliveries bowled by Mustafizur, who cleverly mixes his variety of cutters to make life miserable for the batters.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: DC's bowling consultant Eric Simons said that the pitch had a lot of grass rolled in and felt it would be a "good cricket wicket" which could have some bounce going by what he saw on the side pitches on the square. That said, there's always some swing available in the humid Vizag air and new-ball bowlers should be able to get some help. Across 8 IPL games at this venue, 61 wickets have fallen to pace and 36 to spin.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: The two sides have faced each other here once. That was in May 2019 in the second qualifier. DC were restricted to a score of 151/4 and then half-centuries from openers Faf du Plessis and Shane Watson helped CSK chase it down with six wickets and an over remaining.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: It is Sunday and so it is double-header day. The first match is between Gujarat Titans and Sunrisers Hyderabad in Ahmedabad. SRH have won the toss and chosen to bat. Will it be another sixathon from them?

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: You might have noticed that this game is being played at the ACA-VDCA Stadium in Visakhapatnam, which played host to the pulsating second Test between India and England last month. You might have also noticed that the team listed as the home team is called the “Delhi” Capitals, and there is no mention of Visakhapatnam or any other regional markers in the side's name. Well DC are playing their first two home games in Vizag this season and then the rest at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. This is because the pitches in Delhi are being remade after the WPL games it hosted.

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Ruturaj Gaikwad(c), Rachin Ravindra, Ajinkya Rahane, Daryl Mitchell, Shivam Dube, Ravindra Jadeja, Sameer Rizvi, MS Dhoni(w), Deepak Chahar, Tushar Deshpande, Mustafizur Rahman, Matheesha Pathirana, Shardul Thakur, Shaik Rasheed, Nishant Sindhu, Mitchell Santner, Maheesh Theekshana, Moeen Ali, Devon Conway, Ajay Jadav Mandal, Prashant Solanki, Mukesh Choudhary, Simarjeet Singh, RS Hangargekar, Aravelly Avanish

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: David Warner, Mitchell Marsh, Ricky Bhui, Rishabh Pant(w/c), Tristan Stubbs, Axar Patel, Sumit Kumar, Kuldeep Yadav, Anrich Nortje, Khaleel Ahmed, Mukesh Kumar, Abishek Porel, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Praveen Dubey, Kumar Kushagra, Rasikh Dar Salam, Ishant Sharma, Jhye Richardson, Shai Hope, Prithvi Shaw, Lalit Yadav, Yash Dhull, Vicky Ostwal, Swastik Chikara

DC vs CSK IPL Live Score 2024, Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings: Greetings everyone! As the IPL 2024 completes its first week, Visakhapatnam, Delhi Capitals' home ground for the first few games, hosts its first game of the season, where the winless Capitals take on the unbeaten Chennai Super Kings in the second of Sunday's double-header.
