Delhi Bulls vs Deccan Gladiators, 15th Match, Super League, February 1, 2021 - Full Commentary

22:47 Local Time, 18:47 GMT, 00:17 IST: Delhi win by 8 wickets! And it has been a comprehensive win. The openers set it up for them. Lewis and Gurbaz started the onslaught and brought their team very close to the target. Their departure didn't hurt the Delhi unit much and they carried on. Earlier in the evening, Pollard got into his elements and got an 18-ball 47 to take the Gladiators to 118 for 7. But that was never enough as the Delhi openers at one point had added 90 runs for the first wicket inside 5 overs. Delhi now join the Qalandars at the top of the table and Gladiators have succumbed to their third loss. The action continues and we will back soon with more cricketing action.

Dwayne Bravo: We needed a break. Even if it is a T10 game. We had a break and we are very happy to win after the loss we had. Nothing special to say to Pollard, he is one of the best in the world. Sometimes he does get the better of me and sometimes I do in big tournaments like this.
