Despite giving up eighteen runs in the last over of the game, the bowler brought DC back into the contest by taking crucial wickets.
Since making his debut in 2018, Rasikh, a player from Jammu & Kashmir, has only participated in two first-class and seven List-A games.
The match was exciting, and when DC won their fourth game of the year, tensions were high. Rishabh Pant, who batted first for DC, scored 88 runs off of 43 balls with a century partnership with Axar Patel. It was a wise decision to shift Axar to the No. 3 spot, as he provided Pant with assistance with a 66-run innings off of 43 balls.
In spite of scoring 224 runs, the game fluctuated wildly. DC led the pursuit by a wide margin after cutting GT to 122 for 4. Following a tumultuous journey, DC emerged victorious.
