Jason Roy wins it for Delhi in 💞pulsating last ball finish. 3 defeats in a row for Mumbai, which is unusual, and 2at home, which is very rare

Jason Roy Has Done It. People Must Have Seen Explosive Batting, But This Has To Be One Of The Cleverest Batting Ever. Dodging The Good Balls, Smoking The Ba𒆙d Ones Out Of The Park. Delhi Daredevils Beat Mumbai Indians By 7 Wickets. 💪👏🙏
