Billings falls for 24, Delhi lose 2nd wicket
April 11, 2017  20:47


Delhi 76-2 (9 ovs) vs Pune | Scorecard


Billings joins the party as he swings Chahar across the line through midwicket for a four. He chips down the track and smashes the next ball through square leg for another four.

Chahar then drifts on the pads as Billings glances it fine to make it a hat-trick of fours. The next ball is again on the leg stump as Billing again flicks it but this time straight to the fielder at short fine leg for a single and Samson picks one off the last ball to take Delhi to 62 for one in six overs.

Pune introduce spin as Imran Tahir comes into the attack. He has a huge appeal for LBW turned down against Samson off the first ball as the bounce saves him. The next ball stays low as Billings looks to pull but gets an inside edge before he takes one.

He makes a good start, giving away just four runs, as his leg-spinning colleague Adam Zampa also comes in from the other end.

Billings picks a single from the first ball before Samson drives it through the off-side for a couple and then picks another two runs off the next delivery before he defends the rest of the over.

Tahir strikes in his next over with the wicket of Billings. The right-hander comes down the track but misses the slider completely and is bowled for 24.

Rishabh Pant throws his bat at the first delivery he faces, from Tahir, as it goes uppishly on the off-side but falls safely.
