Rajasthan Royals beat Delhi Capitals by 15 runs in their Indian Premier League match here on Friday.

RR posted an imposing 222 for twio after being asked to bat, riding on a magnificent 116 from opener Jos Buttler, and then restricted DC to 207 for eight.

Chasing an imposing target, DC captain Rishabh Pant top-scored with a 44 while Prithvi Shaw and Lalit Yadav contributed 37 each.

For RR, Prasidh Krishna took three wickets while Ravichandran Ashwin got two.

A disappointed Delhi Capitals captain Rishabh Pant said the third umpire should have interfered to check for a possible waist-high no-ball in the dramatic final over of their IPL match against Rajasthan Royals as it proved precious for his team.

Pant had called back his batters — Rovman Powell and Kuldeep Yadav — after the umpires did not check the delivery for a possible no-ball in the last over as DC lost the match by 15 runs.
