After being put into bat first by skipper of Mumbai Hardik Pandya, the Delhi Capitals set the stage on fire with a massive total of 257/4 in their allotted 20 overs. The fireworks began with Jake Fraser-McGurk's explosive innings of 84 off just 27 balls. Fraser-McGurk's onslaught included 11 fours and 6 sixes, as he raced to yet another 15-ball half-century, leaving the Mumbai Indians bowlers searching for answers. Alongside Abishek Porel (36 off 27), who played an anchor role, Fraser-McGurk laid the foundation with a 114-run opening partnership. The assault continued with Shai Hope's blitzkrieg of 41 off 17 deliveries, featuring five maximums. Despite losing wickets at regular intervals, Rishabh Pant (29 off 19) guided the innings with crucial partnerships alongside Hope and later Tristan Stubbs (48* off 25). Axar Patel's unbeaten cameo of 11 off 6 further propelled Delhi Capitals past the 250-run mark.

Mumbai Indians' bowling attack, spearheaded by Jasprit Bumrah, faced a daunting task against the relentless onslaught from the Delhi batsmen. Bumrah managed figures of 4-0-35-1, accounting for Pant's wicket for the seventh time in IPL encounters. However, other bowlers like Luke Wood (1/68), Thushara (0/56), and Pandya (0/41) bore the brunt of Delhi's aggressive batting display.

Chasing a mammoth target, Mumbai Indians showed resilience with Tilak Varma's impressive 63 and Hardik Pandya's quickfire 46. However, Delhi's bowlers, led by Rasikh Salam's 3/34, kept striking at crucial points of game, preventing Mumbai from building substantial partnerships. Despite a brilliant effort, Mumbai Indians fell short by 10 runs, finishing at 247/9 chase.
