Opener Jos Buttler struck his third century of the ongoing IPL to power Rajasthan Royals to a 15-run win over Delhi Capitals in a drama-filled match here on Friday.
With 36 needed off the last over, Delhi’s Roman Powell clobbered Obed McCoy for three consecutive sixes in the first three deliveries to raise the hopes of an improbable win for DC before the West Indian bowler got his acts together to take his side home.
But the win came after a bit of drama as the DC team argued with the on-field umpires, claiming for a possible waist-high no ball but to no avail.
