DC vs RCB IPL 2022: Mohammad Siraj has been a find for team India, courtesy of the Royal Challengers Bangalore franchise. Known for bowling economically, Siraj was smacked for a six by young Delhi Capitals opener Prithvi Shaw. However, the bowler returned the favour by dismissing the batter. 

Chasing a target of 190, Prithvi Shaw etched an excellent fifty-rum partnership with Australian opener David Warner. While Warner was the aggressor in the partnership, Prithvi was ably assisting the left-hander. Amidst this, Shaw had a swing at his bat as he smacked Siraj in the bowler's very first over.

However, Siraj got back at the batter, dismissing him in his next over. In the 5th over of the innings, Siraj bowled an off-cutter delivery on the fourth ball of the over. Prithvi Shaw tried to make some room for himself and back away to pull the ball for a boundary. However, this left the batter with no timing on the pull shot and Anuj Rawat completed an easy catch to dismiss the DC opener. 

Shaw scored 16 runs in 13 balls with a four and a six before getting dismissed. Before getting dismissed, Shaw etched a partnership of 50 runs in 28 balls for the first wicket with David Warner. 

While talking about the match, Delhi Capitals captain Rishabh Pant won the toss & opted to bowl first against Royal Challengers Bangalore in the 27th match of the IPL 2022.
