DC vs RR Highlights, IPL 2025: Delhi Capitals beat Rajasthan Royals in Super Over

DC vs RR Live Score, IPL 2025: Delhi Capitals triumphed over Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2025’s first Super Over finish, reclaiming the top spot in the league.

Chasing 12, KL Rahul struck a double and a boundary before Tristan Stubbs smashed a six to win it for Delhi in just four deliveries.

Delhi's innings was powered by Abishek Porel’s 49 and fiery cameos from Stubbs and Axar Patel, who each scored 34. Patel and Stubbs added 41 in just 19 balls, helping Delhi score 77 runs in the last five overs.

Rajasthan looked strong early, racing to 50 in five overs with Jaiswal scoring 51. Nitish Rana added a quickfire 51, but regular wickets and Samson’s injury derailed their chase. Starc dismissed Rana late in the innings, and a tight final over led to a dramatic tie.

With five wins in six matches, Delhi climbed back to the top of the standings. Rajasthan, meanwhile, slumped to their fifth loss in seven games, still chasing consistency.

Mukesh Kumar to Nitish Rana, A big appeal for caught behind, but the umpire turns it down. KL Rahul is very convinced and Axar Patel decides to send it upstairs. On a length, just outside off, Nitish Rana sits on his knee and looks to work it across but misses on the inside edge. The ball seems to go very close to the inside edge and past the pads too, on the way to the keeper. The UltraEdge shows no spike as the ball passes the bat, but a spike does appear when the ball grazes the thigh pad. The on-field call of NOT OUT stays. Delhi Capitals lose their review.

Kuldeep Yadav to Yashasvi Jaiswal, Extraordinary effort from Mohit Sharma to save 5 runs for his side. But had he been closer to the ropes, that could have been a simple catch. Short and on middle, Yashasvi Jaiswal sweeps it over deep backward square leg. Mohit initially comes forward, but then moves back and sticks out his right hand to push the ball back in while being airborne. He lobs the ball back in the field of play, before leaping over the ropes with the falling momentum. Just a single then.

Axar Patel to Riyan Parag, OUT! Outfoxed, and totally outclassed! The first wicket for Axar Patel in this season! From around the stumps, Axar dishes out on a fuller length, keeping it on a flatter trajectory, in front of the stumps. It lands and skids a bit as Riyan Parag tries to play for the turn and push it away into the off side. But the ball stays straight and goes through the big gap between the bat and pad, before crashing into the stumps. A beauty of a delivery from Axar to dismiss Riyan Parag who goes for 8 (11). RR are 76/1.
