Venue Details

M.Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru

Right in the center - 64 meters square on either side while the straight hit is 73 meters long. A bit of weather around but it was just a passing drizzle. This pitch looks a beauty - there are a few patches of grass but it's really dry. Lot of heavy roll on this wicket. 200+ was scored on this wicket last year.

Commentary

So that will be all from this contest. It was largely engrossing before the Capitals made easy work of the target eventually. But tomorrow promises to be interesting - not least because MS Dhoni will be back as captain of the Chennai Super Kings when they host the Kolkata Knight Riders. Can Thala's return to the helm spark a revival in fortunes for CSK? Do join us at 6.30 PM IST to find out with the first ball to be bowled an hour later. For now, this is the duo of Darpan Tikiya and Sooryanarayanan Sesha taking your leave. Thank you so much for tuning in today as we hope you enjoyed our coverage. See you tomorrow - good night and take care!

The way Rahul thumped his bat into the turf after that winning shot told a story. He was motivated as ever to make a statement today and he sure did. It reflected in his words in the presentation as well and he has got the Capitals home yet again. What an addition he has proved to be and what a run the Capitals are having - eight points now from four outings and they remain unbeaten. As for RCB, back to the drawing board but they will have to try and find a way to adapt faster here at home. They've lost two here at the Chinnaswamy and the pitch sure doesn't look a typical Chinnaswamy deck. They fly across to Jaipur now though to play the Rajasthan Royals over the weekend while the Capitals fly home to New Delhi to host the Mumbai Indians.

KL Rahul is the Player of the Match for his unbeaten 93. Here's what he has to say: It was a slightly tricky wicket but what helped me was being behind the stumps and watching how the wicket played. From wicket-keeping I figured that the ball sat in the wicket a bit but it was consistent throughout. It wasn't two-paced, it was one-paced. I wanted to get off to a good start and then assess. It depends on the conditions, the ground and dimensions but on a wicket like this, I knew what pockets to target. Wicket-keeping gave me a feel of how the other batters played, where they were dismissed and where they hit sixes. I got a bit lucky with the dropped catch but this is my ground, this is my home - I know this ground better than anybody else. Something I've always done with the preparation is whenever I practice, whatever wicket it is I try to adapt to that wicket. Even in practice I try and put myself under pressure. I experiment in practice and get out a couple of times but I assess what pockets I can target. It's not just that I go there and get out slogging and slogging - I do that as well at times.

Axar Patel (Delhi Capitals captain): We won three in three so yeah now I did think we can win four in four (laughs). The team has played really well. It obviously feels nice to win four in four. We talk of matchups and see what's happening in the wicket. They like pacers more so I thought let's not bowl more pace. The ball was stopping and bouncing so I thought hitting spin in the powerplay would be difficult. As we went on, the ball was turning more for the wrist-spinners. The 19th over went a bit too tactical (laughs) but it's okay, we've won so it's good. Kuldeep has played for many years and obviously he does it but to do it consistently in the IPL with all the pressure is great. I spoke to Vipraj - he was under a bit of pressure earlier but the way he bowled in the last match and now, he's improving day by day. When the captain shows faith, there's nothing better (grins). (On Rahul) My job becomes easier when the player can play in different positions. It's not easy to play the new ball as an opener and then come into the middle-over but having a player like that in the team is great. I played a bad shot and got out but he played a mature innings and finished it off with Stubbs. He's carrying his form over from the Champions Trophy.
