It was a rare, dramatic night in Delhi on Sunday as the Mumbai Indians pulled off a gritty 12-run win over Delhi Capitals at the Arun Jaitley Stadium -- a finish straight out of cinema, and one never before seen in IPL history. (Match Blog | Points Table | Cricket News)
In match 29 of the Indian Premier League 2025 season, Mumbai Indians set a challenging target of 205/5 in 20 overs, thanks to a superb 59 off 33 balls from Tilak Varma. It looked tough, but with the kind of form DC were in -- and with Karun Nair blazing away to a spectacular 89 off just 40 balls -- the total seemed well within reach, even after Jake Fraser-McGurk fell for a golden duck.
But that brief high for Delhi - 119 for one just after the halfway stage-- turned into a collapse no one saw coming.
Desperate to seal their second win of the season, the MI bowlers held their nerve. And in a moment of pure chaos, they forced three consecutive run outs -- yes, three in three balls -- to flip the game on its head.
It all began in the 18.4 over when Ashutosh Sharma, who was carrying Delhi라이브 바카라 hopes after KL Rahul라이브 바카라 early exit for 15 off 13 balls, was run out trying to steal a risky second run -- kudos to some sharp work from Ryan Rickelton and Will Jacks.
Then came the 18.5 delivery. Jasprit Bumrah fired one in to Kuldeep Yadav, who looked uncertain. One run was completed, but the second wasn’t on. Confusion reigned, and it was two run outs in two balls!
And just when you thought it couldn’t get any more surreal -- it did.
Bumrah to Mohit Sharma, a full, straight ball on middle. Mohit nudged it towards mid-wicket and hesitated. Mitchell Starc called him through for a single, but Mohit was late to react. Mitchell Santner pounced, pulled off a direct hit, and found Mohit well short. Three consecutive run outs. Game over. DC were bowled out for 193 in 19 overs.
No one -- not even Delhi -- could quite believe what had just happened. It was chaotic, desperate, and unprecedented. The Mumbai Indians held their nerve, and the Capitals imploded in IPL라이브 바카라 most bizarre finish to date, suffering their first loss of the season.
