18.6 N Saini to H Singh

6 SIXXXX MORE!!!! East Delhi Riders have taken 27 from the penultimate over and has registered a victory with an over remaining. Saini bowls a back of length delivery at the off stump. Himmat creates room and pulls it over deep midwicket for a maximum. A fitting way to finish the game for Himmat and EDR.

18.5 N Saini to P Pant

1 Good length delivery at the off stump. Pant drills it to long-on for one.

18.4 N Saini to H Singh

1 Full delivery at the off stump. Himmat plays it to midwicket with the inner half of his bat for one.

Just 8 more needed.

18.3 N Saini to H Singh

4 FOUR MORE!!!!!! Navdeep Saini is looking absolutely clueless in the middle. He bowls a shorter delivery wide of off stump. Himmat gets the width and he slaps it through the vacant widish long off for four.

FREE HIT goes for a boundary. Himmat Singh has killed this game.
