There are rare instances in T20 cricket when spinners dominate the proceedings but such was the case when SRH met DC. Axar Patel displayed an all-round performance scoring 34 runs with the bat and taking two scalps while Anrich Nortje also contributed with a couple of wickets in the win.

The game between two teams standing at the bottom of the points table, Delhi Capitals, and Sunrisers Hyderabad turned out to be a rollercoaster ride in the end as the visitors emerged to be the winners. Delhi Capitals opted to bat first after winning the toss but they soon realised that it wasn't a batting paradise after being reduced to 62/5. However, Axar Patel and Manish Pandey staged a recovery scoring 34 runs each. Washington Sundar was the star of the show for SRH taking three scalps as they restricted Delhi to a score of 144/9 in the allotted 20 overs. 

Mayank Agarwal played a knock of 49 runs for the hosts while Heinrich Klassen also played a cameo of 31 runs from 19 balls. Washington Sundar played a cameo of unbeaten 24 runs from 16 balls but his efforts went in vain as Marco Jansen’s blunder ended the opportunity of a potential Super Over and they finished seven runs short of the target. Anrich Nortje and Axar Patel picked a couple of wickets each for the team.

They lost! Yes.

Too much drama which you won't find in K drama too!

SRH lost it! Delhi didn't win!

Dhoolpet Warner bhai just forgot where he belongs to!

Pray for SRH to come back stronger!

Cricket is not written by SSR here!

Point to be noted!

Only Warner fans like this tweet!

Take a pill and sleep tight!

'We first' is the call before race!

The role of a finisher is one of the most unforgiving jobs in all of cricket, for they are the wins remembered for wins and blamed for losses. Nurul Hasan found himself in a similar situation in Sylhet on Thursday with the odds skewed massively against him, only to end up achieving the unfathomable.

In the game of cricket, it is extremely important for the players to grab every opportunity they get and so when they fail to do so, a lot of hatred is thrown towards them by the fans. Marco Jansen had the same experience against DC as he missed taking a decisive double in the last over.
