Shimron Hetmyer played one of his best IPL innings yet against RCB on Tuesday at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahemdabad.
In the battle to top the table, RCB and Delhi Capitals went heads on a good cricketing pitch which had something for everyone. After a poor start and losing some early wickets AB de Villiers played a splendid knock of 75 from 42 balls hitting 5 sixes and 3 fours to take RCB to a total of 171.
Chasing the target was always gonna be tricky for DC, As they lost three quick wickets upfront this hopes of the chase were fainting as Shimron Hetmyer joined skipper Rishabh Pant who wasn’t looking in his best touch.
The required run-rate crept up over 15 an over when Hetmyer upped the ante and hit Jamieson for 3 sixes in an over. He completed his fifty in just 23 balls. DC needed 14 off the last over but Hetmyer just faced 1 ball in the final over and DC lost the game by a run.
