Hyderabad 158-7 (20 ovs) vs Delhi | Scorecard

Zaheer, who bowled two good overs at the start, comes back. He is unlucky not to get the wicket of Morgan (5), who slices it to the covers but Rishabh Pant spills an easy catch in the covers to his left.

Hyderabad are struggling to get back the momentum as even singles are hard to come by with Zaheer conceding just four singles, in the 17th over.

Coulter-Nile comes back as Morgan smashes the first ball straight down the ground, over long-on for a six. But the bowler gets revenge two balls later as he attempts another big hit but is caught at long-on for 14 and once again it is Brathwaite, who takes the catch.

Naman Ojha pulls a short ball on the leg side for two runs but misses before he takes a bye from the last ball.

Zaheer to bowl the 19th over. The first ball is short as Ojha pulls it over square leg for a six before he steers the next ball through the off-side for two runs. He tries the shot again as Zaheer keeps it slightly short but he misses the steer through the off-side.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar swings the fifth ball straight down the ground, getting it over the long-region for a four as it bounces just short of the ropes. He takes a single from the last ball as 14 come from Zaheer's last over, who finishes with 26 runs from his four overs.

Hyderabad have managed to break free, scoring 25 from the last two overs and are looking set for a total around the 160-run mark.

Coulter-Nile to bowl the final over. Bhuvneshwar makes room and lofts the first ball over long-off for a four and is beaten as he attempts another big shot down the ground.

The third ball is a full toss as Bhuvi drives it through the off-side but Zaheer lunges to his left and saves a certain boundary.

Coulter-Nile switches to round the wicket and bowls a short ball to Ojha, who pulls it to deep square leg for one.

Zaheer then half stops the fifth ball at mid-off to give away two runs and Bhuvi is run out attempting a second run to long-on.

Hyderabad have done well to score a healthy 158 for seven in their 20 overs on a ground where the par score batting first is 146.
