With Delhi Capitals captain Axar Patel cramping and struggling to walk, Pandya rushed to his aide, helping him walk off the field in a pivotal moment in the game. Krunal shunned aside his rivalry to help the opposition captain, earning plaudits for his actions.
Axar struggles with cramps, retires hurt
Axar Patel walked into bat at no.6 and injected some much needed momentum in the chase for the Delhi Capitals. However, after a brief stay in the middle, the DC captain struggled with cramps.
Batting on 25, he was treated twice, before deciding to walk off the field retired hurt. Patel couldn't walk himself and needed support from Ashutosh Sharma, with Krunal Pandya also rushing to help the all-rounder off the field at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.
