Fans were able to witness the first Super Over of IPL 2025 that took place during the DC vs RR match that was played at the Arun Jaitely Stadium in Delhi yesterday. The batting team of DC started their innings with 188/5 before RR was able to chase and hit 188/4 at the end of the 20 overs. The match went to a Super Over period following the drawn scores. In the Super Over RR selected the batting lineup to include Yashasvi Jaiswal along with Riyan Parag and Shimron Hetmyer. The bowlers could not finish the six-ball phase due to losing two wickets before the team managed to score 11 runs. DC accomplished their Super Over target of scoring 12 runs by scoring 13 runs in four balls without losing any wickets. The RR experienced some instability in the middle overs until Nitish Rana hit an impressive 51 off only 28 balls to steady them. “The management takes the call, not one person. The captain is there along with two other senior players and coaches. If Shimron Hetmyer had hit two sixes, then you wouldn’t be asking this question. I will give the same answer. I don’t have any other answer. Whatever decisions we took was absolutely right. Hetmyer is our finisher, that everyone knows. He has delivered in the past,” Rana said in the press conference.”
