IPL 2020, Match 55: Nortje shines with ball as DC thump RCB by six wickets to achieve top-two finish

Shreyas Iyer-led Delhi Capitals (DC), after suffering four consecutive defeats, got back to winnings ways on Monday as they thumped Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) by six wickets to grab two vital points and achieve a top-two finish.

Devdutt Padikkal was impressive with the bat as he slammed a vital half-century to guide RCB to a respectable total.

Capitals will now get two attempts to book their place in the final while RCB will have to play the eliminator.

Anrich Nortje struck twice in the 16th over to dismiss Padikkal and Chris Morris. He finished with figures of 3/33 in his four overs.

On the back of half-centuries from Ajinkya Rahane (64) and Shikhar Dhawan (54), DC cruised past the 153-run target with six deliveries to spare.

Kohli's men also booked playoffs berth after DC took more than 17.3 overs to hunt down the total.
