Stubbs had hit the ball so far that there was a stoppage in play as the officials brought out new ball. Siddharth continued to bowl from round the wicket and pitched the ball on the middle stump and beat the batter for turn. Stubbs could only look behind in utter shock as the ball turned a lot and hit the top of his off-stump. 

The bowler cupped his hands near his ears and made his way to the teammates. DC fans who had come to watch the game in Vizag went silent at the fall of the wicket. Stubbs was out after scoring 34 runs from just 22 balls. The right-handed batter hit one four in his knock and also hit three huge sixes.

Needing 210 to win, Delhi saw Shardul Thakur take two early wickets for LSG in the first over of the chase. The 33-year-old who came in for Mohsin Khan, began by getting the wicket of Jake Fraser-McGurk for one run and followed it up with the scalp of Abhishek Porel for a second-ball duck. Sameer Rizvi then fell for four runs when he was caught by Pant off Siddharth to make it seven runs for the loss of three wickets. 

Axar Patel scored 22 off 11 balls and added 43 runs for the fourth wicket with Faf Du Plessis.

Ravi Bishnoi then got the wicket of Faf Du Plessis for 29 runs who was caught by David Miller to leave Delhi struggling at 65/5 in the seventh over.
