Rahul guides Delhi to third straight IPL victory

Electing to bat, Delhi reached 183-6 as they rode on Rahul's 51-ball knock that included key partnerships at Chennai's M.A. Chidambaram Stadium. Delhi bowlers combined to restrict five-time winners Chennai to 158-5 and stay unbeaten in this edition of the popular T20 tournament. Chennai slipped to their third successive loss and second at home this season. Delhi batters set up victory with Rahul playing an anchor role after taking over as opener from South Africa's Faf du Plessis who was not fit for the match.
