Samson slams century to put Delhi on top
April 11, 2017  21:34


Delhi 182-4 (19 ovs) vs Pune | Scorecard


Zampa to bowl the 19th over. Samson lofts the ball back over the bowler's head for a straight six to bring up his maiden century in T20 cricket in grand style, from just 61 balls.

This is also the first century in this year's IPL and it could not have at a better time for Delhi Daredevils.

However, Zampa gets revenge off the very next delivery as Samson looks to pull but fails to connect and is bowled. The Kerala youngster showed great maturity as he started with a flurry of boundaries before he settled down well in the middle overs and then cut loose in the final overs.

Chris Morris starts off in smashing fashion as he lofts Zampa over the covers for a four and gets a couple from the next ball. He swings the next ball over midwicket for a huge six and carts the last ball of the over for a four over the off-side.

Morris races to 16 from just four balls to help Delhi retain the momentum after Samson's dismissal.

Zampa was hit for 22 runs in his final over to finish with one for 45 in four overs.
