Tristan Stubbs: "So cool to get wickets like that! The boys bowled beautifully. Our spinners are just world-class. I was just trying to hit the wicket - and then whatever happens, happens! I have been bowling to Rishabh in the nets. I got a bit of fright [when Pant asked me to bowl]! We've watched enough IPL - there's always a twist. I think that extra player in the batting line-up allows that [to play with freedom]"
Sudhakar: "DD got great chance to boost their NRR."
9.09pm This is GT's lowest total in IPL. The previous lowest was 125, which also came against DC in Ahmedabad last year. They got a slow pitch at home today - one which was never used earlier this season - and it showed from as early as the second over onwards, when Ishant Sharma was into the attack. The ball seemed to take its time to go off the pitch, with some of them gripping for the spinners. Some luck went DC's way with Shahrukh's stumping, and surprisingly, everyone except Kuldeep took a wicket for them! Join Sreshth for the chase.

AJ: "Rare day when wickets were crumbling around him, and Kuldeep did not have any against his name"
Johnson is the last man. Mukesh from around to the left-hander.
