Marsh keeps Delhi in hunt

MITCHELL Marsh smashed 89 after striking twice with the ball as Delhi Capitals stayed in the IPL playoff hunt with an eight-wicket win over Rajasthan Royals on Thursday.

Chasing 161 for victory, a 144-run second-wicket partnership between David Warner (52 not out) and Marsh helped Delhi achieve its target with 11 balls to spare in Mumbai. Marsh earlier took the wickets of Yashasvi Jaiswal and Ravi Ashwin to help restrict Rajasthan to 6-160.
