The opening duo of Shaw and Dhawan ran riot at Wankhede as the Chennai bowling unit looked hapless on the day.
Shikhar Dhawan, who scored 85 off 54 balls against CSK, said that he had already anticipated the bowling plans and field placements Dhoni's side would set for him.
In India TV's 'Cricket Dhamaka', the experts lauded DC's opening duo on its batting approach, and spoke significantly on Shaw's enormous improvement over the past few months.
CSK captain MS Dhoni was fined Rs 12 lakh for a slow over-rate against Delhi Capitals in their opening game of IPL 2021.
Chasing 189 for victory, DC romped to a seven-wicket victory with eight balls to spare after Shikhar Dhawan (85) and Prithvi Shaw (72) struck blistering half-centuries.
Dhoni, whose return to competitive cricket was a forgetful one, also said that his side needed to notch up 15 or 20 runs more to be on the safe side.
