But Mohammed Siraj, playing his first game of the IPL 2020, broke the Shaw-Dhawan stand, dismissing the right-hander for 42 in the 7th over. A couple of overs later, RCB struck for the second time in the match as Dhawan was holed out in the deep off Udana’s bowling.

He, then got a reprieve in the same over as DC surpassed 130-run mark. In the next over, the Stoinis-Pant pair completed the 50-run partnership and in the 16th over, hit a four each before Pant hit a six in the same over.

In the chase, Aaron Finch got an early life as Kagiso Rabada dropped a catch off his own bowling before an edge fell just short of Dhawan in the slip in the first over. There was more to this lucky streak as Finch got another reprieve as Dhawan could not hold on to a sharp chance off Anrich Nortje’s bowling. DC introduced spin in the third over and the move paid dividends straightway as R Ashwin dismissed Devdutt Padikkal after Stoinis took the catch at deep mid-wicket. Finch departed in the next over as Axar Patel had him caught behind the wickets for 13. Kohli, could have been run-out in the sixth over bowled by Nortje, but Ashwin missed the direct hit and Kohli survived. DC, though managed to get another big wicket in the same over as Nortje dismissed the ever-so-dangerous AB de Villiers after Dhawan held on to a skier. While Moeen Ali and Virat added 33 runs together, DC managed did not concede any easy runs. The partnership was broken by Axar as he got out Moeen Ali out for 11 in the 12th over to complete his fine bowling effort, conceding just 18 runs from 4 overs to pick 2 wickets. Rabada, then struck big and got the wicket of Virat Kohli in the 14th over of the chase after the RCB skipper under-edged one to the DC wicketkeeper Pant. Sundar was the next man to get out as Rabada picked his second wicket of the match. The right-arm pacer, bowling the 18th over and his final of the night, disturbed the timber to dismiss Shivam Dube. Rabada picked up his fourth wicket after Iyer. Nortje then added one more wicket to his tally before DC closed out the game, restricting RCB to 137/9, and sealed a the second biggest win of the IPL 2020.

Car-top skiing at 180kph (112mph)
Skiing with wheels! I raced on top of a BMW M2 in the Jarama circuit, driven by ex-racing pilot Ernesto Nava, director of the RACE driving school. This stunt is aerodynamic training for the Speed Ski World Cup which I race in, as well as to raise media awareness about my sport. Skiing on snow above 200kph is difficult to train for and feeling the airflow on top of a car in a controlled environment allows me to perfect and memorise my ideal tuck position.
