Delhi Capitals (DC) grabbed their first win of the season against the high-flying Chennai Super Kings <\/a>(CSK) in Vizag, beating the defending champions by 20 runs in the IPL 2024.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n CSK captain Ruturaj Gaikwad blamed their loss on the lack of big overs in their innings, especially after losing early wickets. <\/strong>Delhi batted first and scored 191 runs, with David Warner and skipper Rishabh Pant playing exceptionally well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The game took a turn in the second innings when Khaleel Ahmed’s early swing movement troubled CSK’s batsmen, leading to quick dismissals for Rachin Ravindra and Ruturaj. <\/strong>CSK tried to recover, but they struggled to get close to the target.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Batting in the middle was tough for CSK as DC’s pacers stuck to their plans, restricting them to just 171 runs. Former CSK captain MS Dhoni’s quick-fire 37* off 16 balls towards the end gave CSK<\/a><\/strong> some hope, but it wasn’t enough to chase down the target.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
