SRH vs DC Highlights and Match Recap, IPL 2019, Full cricket score: Delhi Capitals win by 39 runs, move to 2nd spot

Turning out to a fantastic season so far Delhi. Can they sustain the momentum though?

I’m getting to fancy #DelhiCapitals. Team’s been mercurial no doubt, but has talent to beat any side in the IPL. Bowling’s looked sharp, with Rabada exceptional. Need consistency in batting, especially from young guns Shaw & Pant, to be serious title contenders

Sunrisers Hyderabad’s implosion was complete. From a comfortable 72 without loss in 9.4 overs, they slid to 116 in 18.5 overs. To say that they scripted their own downfall would be to unfairly deny Keemo Paul, the fastmedium bowler with the guile of a spinner, Kagiso Rabada and Chris Morris any credit. To be sure, Amit Mishra’s stifling leg-spin bowling played no mean role in the pressure that built up on the home batsmen during their attempted chase of 157 for victory. Delhi Capitals held their nerve during the Warner-Bairstow opening stand and picked up two points for their immense belief in themselves on a track that assisted the faster bowlers. Sunrisers Hyderabad will lick their wounds and wonder how they would plug the middle-order madness afflicting them.

Three wickets in an over for Morris and Delhi is all over SRH here. Sunrisers’ hara-kiri is ceaseless. The equation is out of the reach now. Delhi Capital just need two wickets. Just in case you need to know 44 are required off 12 balls

Delhi Capitals’ Chris Morris helped drive Sunrisers Hyderabad’s campaign further back by yorking Deepak Hooda and following it up with the wicket of Rashid Khan to a catch by Keemo Paul. Like Kagiso Rabada in the previous over, Morris claimed two scalps with successive deliveries to frustrate the home batsmen. He went a step further and picked up a third wicket by getting Abhishek Sharma caught by Paul. Leg-spinner Amit Mishra contributed with his efficient and economical bowling but could be wondering how he had to remain wicketless in three overs,

Don’t really know what the Sunrisers batsmen are upto. Everyone are looking to swing for the big hits. Not connecting it from the middle. The inexperience in the batting clearly visible. Abhishek Sharma holes out to mid off. Abhishek Sharma departs.

OUT! Rashid Khan comes in and walks out. Went for the almighty swing across the line to a length ball, is only able to get it to the fielder in deep midwicket. Horror show from Sunrisers. Morris picks two wickets in as many balls.

Delhi Capitals’ Kagiso Rabada, who had taken two catches to help Keemo Paul scalp Jonny Bairstow and Kane Williamson, returned to claim two big wickets with successive deliveries. David Warner became the first batsman to complete a half-century in the game on Sunday night but fell to Kagiso Rabada in the 17th over. The mounting pressure of the rising asking rate was too much to deal and Warner fell to a catch at mid-off. Off the next ball, Vijay Shankar top-edge a skyed catch to Rishabh Pant. Taking a cue from Paul, Rabada used the slower delivery to send Warner packing and take Delhi Capitals closer to a win.

The man for the big occassion. Kagiso Rabada with a crucial over. Takes two wickets in two balls. The half side is back in the hut. Four runs and two wickets. SRH imploding here. Now 48 needed off 18 balls.

OUT! Oh dear! Vijay follows Warner. Rabada has two in two and Delhi Capitals are right on top. Quick and was shortish in length, Vijay looked to flat-bat it for a massive hit over long on, gets the thick outside edge and goes straight up. Pant calls for it and takes it.

The Sunrisers slowed down in the middle overs, and the wickets starting falling with pressure building up

#SRH look a bit like they are caught in quicksand. Going nowhere just deeper. No pace in this track at all.

OUT! KG Rabada strikes! He has got the massive wicket of David Warner. Rolled his fingers over the ball, to bowl it like an off-cutter. Warner toe-ends a slap down the ground and the mid off takes the important catch. How big is this for DC!

FIFTY! Warner racks up another half-century in this IPL. He still has his task cut out, so the ceebrations are really subdued. Gets there in 46 balls.

Vijay Shankar strides out on the middle on the eve of the World Cup selection. Another probable Rishabh Pant is behind the wickets, will he fancy some chit chat? Meanwhile Keemo Paul continues his deception. Bhui falls, while Warner edges it to Pant only for the ball to bounce couple of yards before Pant. End of a sensational spell, four runs off his final over, finishes with the figures of 4-0-17-3.

SRH vs DC Expert’s Voice

You can only admire at Keemo Paul’s skills with the cricket ball. He claimed his third wicket of the night to put Delhi Capitals ahead in the race for victory. With leg-spinner Amit Mishra contributing to the pressure on Sunrisers Hyderabad with his economical bowling – unfortunately, he could not latch on to a stiff return catch offered by David Warner – Paul was able to end Ricky Bhui’s uncomfortable stay in the middle. With David Warner finding the scoring touch, it promises to be an exciting finish but Delhi Capitals will have to believe that they can win this one.

In a match where slow balls are picking wickets, it’ll be down to Rabada at 140+ vs Warner at 200 mph #SRHvDC

OUT! Keemo Paul outfoxes another batsman with his back-of-the-hand slower delivery. Bhui was aiming to give it almighty smash down the ground, ended up getting a thick outside edge. Axar Patel scampers from point, dives sideways to grab a fine catch. Third wicket for Paul.

Warner strikes one straight to Mishra and guess what the bowler has dropped it. It was struck fierecely but it is the wicket of David Warner. Mishra clearly is unhappy, how costly with this be. Mishra bowls another tight over, conceding just five runs. Now 56 required off 30

Warner is just switching his gears here. He is well aware of the chinks in Sunrisers’ middle order and the former skipper has smashed couple of boundaries off Morris. Couple of times he must have had his heart up his mouth slapping the ball around aerially but he is gone away with it as the ball just about fallen short from the fielders. Eleven runs come from it and Sunrisers now need 61 off 36 balls.

You could see that David Warner sensed that he will have to shift gears after the loss of his partners Jonny Bairstow and Kane Williamson to Keemo Paul’s wily bowling. With debutant Ricky Bhui visibly nervous in the middle and eager to make an impression, Sunrisers Hydrabad needed Warner to strike a few boundaries off the Delhi Capitals bowlers. Leg spinner Amit Mishra has bowled two economical overs, adding to the challenges of the home  batsmen.

FOUR! Short from Morris and Warner rocks back and pulls it away for a boundary to deep midwicket. Much-needed.

Bhui misreads a googly from Mishra but the inside edge saves him. Adding insult to injury is the drop catch from Munro. Delhi Capitals cannot afford to spill chances here. Mishra must be disraught after luring the batsman into making a mistake, but unfortunately wasn’t upported by his fielder. Four runs off the over.

DROPPED! Colin Munro spills the simplest of chances. Mishra induces the false stroke with a flighted delivery as Bhui strikes it straight and flat to long off. Munro got to the ball perfectly was on the slide, reverse cupping and the ball goes right through his hands.

Bhui dropped on 5.

The ‘c Rabada b Paul’ line appeared on the scoreboard a second time in two overs, this time to dismiss Sunrisers Hyderabad captain Kane Williamson. It was another slower one that Keemo Paul sent down and drew a drive to mid-off where Rabada did well to take a lunging catch. It was a wicket that would fire the Delhi Capitals into believing that they could put the home side under greater pressure now. David Warner, scratching to find some luck with timing, will have to anchor the chase. Interestingly, Sunrisers Hyderabad decided to send young Ricky Bhui to join Warner, holding back Vijay Shankar and Deepak Hooda.

Disaster is averted off the first ball as KW sends Warner back for the non-existent second run. Was a good call from the Kiwi. However, he is outsmarted by the guile of Paul couple of deliveries later. Delhi Capitals are right in it. Three runs and wicket of the opposition captain in the over. Ricky Bhui joins Warner.

OUT! A well-disguised back-of-the-hand slower ball from Keemo Paul brings Williamson’s downfall. Was looking to drive down the ground but got timining horribly wrong. Lifting the ball for Rabada at mid off snaffle an outstanding diving catch. The combo of Rabada and Paul features in the second wicket of the innings.

The stage is getting set for the fans to be drawn to the edge of their seats. Though Delhi Capitals needed till the 10th over to see the back of Jonny Bairstow, they were able to keep building some pressure on Sunrisers Hyderabad by keeping a check on their scoring rate. It was this slow pressure that forced Bairstow to drive a simple catch to long off for Kagiso Rabada to pouch and give Keemo Paul the first wicket. Paul was using a lot of the variations to keep the batsmen guessing and quiet. At the halfway stage, Sunrisers Hyderabad were 73 for one, falling behind on the asking rate.

Just before the halfway juncture in the second innings Bairstow falls. Keemo Paul overstepps and has to re-bowl the fourth delivery. Warner doesn’t quite bury the free hit as mistimes a full toss to long on for a single. Bairstow’s departure brings skipper Kane Williamson to the middle opens his account with a single to long leg.

OUT! Keemo Paul provides the much-needed breakthrough for the Delhi Capitals. Bowls a fuller length slower ball, wide of off and Jonny Bairstow eyes the long off boundary. Doesn’t get the timing right due to the change up. Rabada makes no mistake.

SIX! Warner has been waiting for a gift all evening. Gets one from Axar and latches on it. Nothing delivery, to be honest, was halfway down the track which Warner would have slapped away in his sleep. Rocks back and sends it over deep mid wicket.

SRH vs DC Expert’s Voice

David Warner survived an anxious moment against Keemo Paul, the ball ballooning off the leading edge, but dropping between Prithvi Shaw at extra cover and the bowler. It is moments like that will fire Delhi Capitals into thinking harder to try and find a way past the opening combination of Warner and Jonny Bairstow that has put on more than 50 runs in chasing 156 for victory. The visitors will have to think out of the box to get a wicket and stop Sunrisers Hyderabad from making that charge to a win
