New Delhi [India] April 17 (ANI): Mitchell Starc's brilliance in the 20th over took the Rajasthan Royals vs Delhi Capitals match to the first super over in their Indian Premier League (IPL) clash on Wednesday at the Arun Jaitley Stadium.
DC batter Tristan Stubbs reflected on his performance, acknowledging a dropped catch, but highlighted KL Rahul's support in helping him regain composure.
He described the super over plan and expressed satisfaction with his current form, aiming to maintain momentum.
'Felt horrible when I dropped that catch (in the 19th over), but KL kept me calm there and I tried to win the game. (On the dropped catch) I dropped it, and I was like, I couldn't believe it. And they hit a six and a four. (On the plan in super over) He (Sandeep) was going for slower ball bouncers, so I committed to that shot. KL told me to take your time, this is all about handling pressure. (On his form) It is going well so far, I just want to keep going. Feels good to bounce back, hope we can carry on with that momentum,' Tristian Stubbs said in the post-match presentation.
RR required nine runs from the last over. Starc bowled a brilliant over, giving only eight runs, so the match went to a super over. In the Super over, RR finished with 11 runs, setting a target of 12 runs for DC.
KL Rahul and Trishan Stubbs came to bat for DC, and Sandeep Sharma bowled the super over for RR. Rahul and Stubbs finished the match in four balls.
Stubbs remained not out throughout the match; he anchored the final flourish, finishing unbeaten on 34 off 18 balls, which included two boundaries and two sixes and smashed a six in the super over for getting DC over the line. (ANI)
