IPL 2018 Points Table
After suffering 7th defeat in ten video games, Daredevils are stranded at the 7th spot with six points.
Alex Hales, who was dropped by means of Glenn Maxwell on Nine in the second one over, and Shikhar Dhawan supplied Sunrisers a cast begin to the run chase.
After taking the staff to 34/0 in 5 overs, Sunrisers openers chose pacer Avesh Khan to press the accelerator in the final over of the Powerplay. Dhawan hit the first maximum of the chase on a free-hit, earlier than Hales took over and smashed three sixes to collect 27 runs as Sunrisers reached 61/0 after six overs.
Leg spinner Amit Mishra and Daniel Christian put a brake at the scoring rate with some tidy bowling. And it took a stunner from Mishra, the last ball of the ninth over, to bamboozle Hales as the veteran leggie gave Delhi a big leap forward.
Hales scored 45 off 31 balls with the help of three sixes and 3 fours as he added 76 runs for the opening wicket with Dhawan. It was the best start for the Sunrisers in the season.
Mishra then blank bowled Dhawan in his subsequent over to keep Delhi in the hunt. From 61/0 in six overs, Sunrisers have been decreased to 86/2 in 11 overs. Mishra completed his four overs with very good figures of two/19.
Williamson and Manish Pandey discovered it tough to barter the slowness of the surface as runs dried up in the center overs. Sunrisers failed to score a unmarried boundary right through the duration of Nine-14 overs. Pandey stopped the rut by means of hitting Christian for back-to-back fours in the 15th over to make the equation 49 off 5 overs.
Williamson then hit a six off Avesh and scored 10 in the 16th over. Liam Plunkett broke the 46-run stand to jolt the house facet as he brushed aside Pandey (21 off 17 balls) and gave away just four runs in the 18th over. It modified the equation to 28 off 12 balls.
Yusuf then hit a six and a four off Trent Boult in the penultimate over to make it 14 off six balls. After taking a double in the first ball off Christian, Yusuf smacked six and 4 in consecutive balls to stun the visitors.
After opting to bat first, Daredevils may just now not money in at the sensible platform laid by means of younger Prithvi Shaw as Sunrisers limited them to 163/5.
Shaw smashed 65 off 36 balls but after scoring 95 in the first 10 overs, DD controlled simplest 67 in the again 10 with the pitch getting slower and the ordinary delivery maintaining up. Leg-spinner Rashid Khan (2/23 in 4 overs) was the most spectacular bowler for Sunrisers as he put the brakes in the second one 1/2 of the Delhi innings.
Shaw once again supplied a blazing start, scoring his 2d IPL half-century in simplest 25 balls. His innings had six barriers and 3 huge sixes. He teed off with six over long on off Sandeep Sharma and then lofted Shakib Al Hasan inside of out for his 2d maximum.
The most fruitful over was the final one in the Powerplay the place Shaw literally got caught into Siddarth Kaul, hitting him for a six and 3 barriers in consecutive balls.
Till Shaw was taking at the bowlers, his skipper Shreyas Iyer (44 off 36 balls) performed the second one fiddle to perfection right through their 86-run stand for the second one wicket. Shaw was in the end out when he tried to hit Rashid towards the flip, gifting a simple catch to Kaul at short 3rd man in the 11th over.
Skipper Iyer was having a look good for another half-century earlier than his tried flick shot off Kaul was snapped by means of Dhawan at deep mid-wicket. Delhi's best run-getter in the season, Rishabh Pant (18 off 19 balls) was off-colour as Rashid trapped him leg-before.
Naman Ojha, getting his first look-in in the event, was run-out. From 95 for 1, Delhi slumped to 134 for 5 in the house of 6.4 overs.
Vijay Shankar (23 now not out off 13 balls) took Delhi past 160-run mark, by means of scoring 17 off the final over bowled by means of Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who was getting back from harm.
