Rizvi's 90* Fires DC to Convincing MI Revenge
Sameer Rizvi pocketed back-to-back player of the match awards. And boy, did he earn this one—90 off 51 balls that sent Mumbai Indians tumbling.
Delhi Capitals shook off that GT gut-punch. Chased 163 for a six-wicket win over Mumbai Indians at Arun Jaitley Stadium. Eleven balls spare. Sameer Rizvi smashed 90 off 51, seven fours and seven sixes—back-to-back Player-of-the-Match nods. Pathum Nissanka chipped in 44 to get them rolling steady.
MI scraped 162/6. Suryakumar Yadav topped it with 51. Axar Patel snagged 1/22. Mukesh Kumar grabbed 2/26. Lungisani Ngidi went for 1/34, T Natarajan 1/24—DC's attack squeezed hard. Rohit Sharma scratched 35. Spinners strangled the middle order flat.
Rizvi's 90 came right after his 70* against LSG. DC stuck with the retention, passed on that Sanju Samson swap. MI's already tripping after the RR defeat.
