IPL 2020 Finals: MI Vs DC, Live Score, DC Wins Toss

Toss: Delhi Capitals wins toss and opts to bat first

DC 5/1 after 1 over: What a bowler! Trent Boult strikes and he removes The Hulk, Marcus Stoinis for a duck with a jaffa. Meanwhile, Dhawan gets off the mark with a flick and even Rahane is off the mark.

Marcus Stoinis and Shikhar Dhawan sprint onto the field and so does the Rohit Sharma-led side. It will be Trent Boult with the new ball. 

Alright we are all set for the final game of IPL 2020 and this should be a cracker of a contest. Runs on the board is what skipper Iyer thinks is the best approach in a big game and how much they will post, we will get to know soon.

Pitch Report by Mark Nicholas and Pommie Mbangwa: This pitch has been good. The whole square has been good. I see a beauty, I am licking my lips. This is the pitch used for that qualifier. There has been a good balance between bat and ball, with the ball coming on nicely. The faster bowlers have enjoyed bowling here. The spinners were in play. You’d bat first on this, but you’re not going to be disadvantaged by the toss.
