In spite of losing opening batters Prithvi Shaw (5) and David Warner (3) in the first three overs, Delhi remained in the chase until the last few deliveries.

Hard-hitting knocks from captain Rishabh Pant (45), all-rounders Axar Patel (42*) and Mitchell Marsh (35) and batter Rovman Powell (35) kept them alive in the chase but Patel and Kuldeep Yadav (16*) failed to score 21 runs off the last Marcus Stoinis over.

Playing only his fourth IPL match, Lucknow pacer Mohsin Khan picked match-winning bowling figures of 4-0-16-4 in a high-scoring contest. Mohsin, who picked crucial wickets of Warner, Pant, Powell and Shardul Thakur (1), was adjudged the Player of the Match for the first time in his IPL career.

Mohsin Khan said his parents wanted to see him play in the #IPL. Well, they are going to be seeing a lot of him in the future.
