Dhawan hits fifty as Delhi go past 100

April 20, 2019 23:03

Delhi 101-1 (12 ovs) vs Punjab 163-7 | Scorecard

Left-arm pacer Curran is back into the attack. Iyer takes a single off the second ball to thirdman before the pacer bowls a high full toss which is ruled a no-ball.

Dhawan pulls the free hit delivery to deep square leg for one but some lazy glove work by Rahul gets them an extra run.

Dhawan then comes down the track and drives it straight to R Ashwin in the covers, who is unable to stop it and gives away a single, but Curran does well to give away just five runs in his second over.

Leggie M Ashwin continues as Dhawan goes for the sweep but missses and can only get a leg bye.

He takes a quick single two balls later to race to his fifty, from just 36 balls.

Two balls later, another Dhawan single helps Delhi race past the 100-run mark, in the 12th over.

Delhi are in control on 101 for one in 12 overs, with Dhawan on 51 and Iyer on 30.

They need another 63 runs from eight overs for victory at an asking rate of under eight.
