OUT! CAUGHT! Another one bites the dust! Fuller one, and some turn on offer. Manish Pandey moves forward to loft it but mistimes it completely. The ball lobs in the air towards long on. Rinku Singh settles under it and takes a sitter. Delhi now needs 18 runs in 25 balls. Kolkata have a glimmer of hope here as Delhi have lost half their side. Aman Khan is the new batter.
