Rishabh Pant return back to form

With four boundaries and three massive sixes, Pant’s scorching 51 runs off only 32 deliveries gave the DC innings the much-needed boost.
With five wickets remaining, the Delhi Capitals captain was instrumental in leading his team to victory as they successfully pursued the 191-run mark.
Pant’s return to form and Delhi Capitals’ victory over the five-time IPL champion Chennai Super Kings (CSK) are encouraging signs notwithstanding the fine. On April 3, Delhi Capitals and Kolkata Knight Riders will play their next match.
