DC vs GT, IPL 2023: David Miller lands in India and gets a victory for Gujarat Titans, GT win by 6 wickets

The reigning champions put on yet another outstanding display!

David Miller, who had just a day back landed in India came into the squad and played a good cameo alongside half-centurion Sai Sudharsan.

For the Capitals, despite having Anrich Nortje come and take early wickets, it did not help the DC side.

Vijay Shankar (29) - the impact player - also help Sai put on a 50-run partnership after they lost three early wickets. 

2nd IPL half-century!

Sai Sudharsan gets to his fifty in style. He smashes a four to reach the half-ton mark.

53-runs partnership broken!

It looked plumb but the on-field umpire did not give OUT. 

Marsh, who was confident ask Warner to go for a review.

It was the leg-cutter from Marsh and no bat was involved. Ball-tracking showe the ball hitting middle and leg.

Impact player Khaleel Ahmed comes in for Sarfaraz Khan

Lowest 1st innings total in IPL 2023!

Capitals surely have some problem with pace - 1st Mark Wood in their previous match and today Alzarri Joseph.

Axar Patel could not finish things for DC!

Full and wide and Axar went hard at it and sliced it off the outside half. 

But Miller took it easily at sweeper cover.

Axar c Miller b Shami 36(22) [4s-2 6s-3]

Full around off and Aman looked to slog across the line but it's the leg-break from Rashid.

It took the leading edge and went high in the air where Pandya at extra cover took an easy catch 

Aman Hakim Khan c Hardik Pandya b Rashid Khan 8(8) [6s-1]

Sarfaraz Khan looked to sweep again, but only managed a thick top-edge. 

This time Little made no mistake and took the catch.

Sarfaraz Khan c Joshua Little b Rashid Khan 30(34) [4s-2]

Rashid Khan does what he does best, take wickets!

Very full on middle and Porel looked to drive.

But he may have been late on it and there was a bit of turn which went past the inside edge and smashed the middle stump. 

Abishek Porel b Rashid Khan 20(11) [6s-2]

Rishabh Pant appears on the big screen and waves to the crowd! 

1st he got the wicket of DC skipper David Warner.

2nd was Rossouw who did not even get time to settle. 

Dug in short, and Rossouw looked to fend it off but it poped up off the bat shoulder. 

But Tewatia who was standing a few yards inside the circle at backward point came in running to take a stunning diving catch.

He's been expensive but has also got two big wickets at the top!

After all the wides and extras given, Shami gets the wicket of Prithvi Shaw. The DC batter looked to pull and hit the splice but it was a simple catch for Joseph at mid-on.
