Just felt like the pressure was mounting on the opposition.
Dragging momentum back in the middle overs was very important and obviously, we took some wickets in a row in the 14th-15th over.
So it was a huge part from Hasaranga and Harshal,” said Hazlewood.
For RCB, this is their 4th win in six matches in the Indian Premier League 2022 which has taken them to the third spot.
While for Delhi, this is their third loss in five matches.
