Delhi downed by Sun Risers

Cape Town - Moises Henriques, with an unbeaten 74, and an unbroken fifth-wicket partnership of 64 with Ravi Bopara (17), ensured that the Sunrisers Hyderabad recorded a six-run victory over the Delhi Daredevils, at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Stadium in Raipur, on Saturday.

Opting to bat first, the Sunrisers accumulated 163 for four, but DD - despite the best efforts of Saurabh Tiwary and Kedar Jadav with an undefeated fifth-wicket partnership of 91 - could only amass 157 for four.

The Sunrisers, who seem to have found the formula for success, scoring 200-plus in their victory over the Mumbai Indians - sans Dale Steyn and Trent Boult - stuck to the same recipe leaving the two international fast bowlers on the bench, which seemed strange, as the strip had a greenish tinge to it.
