Rashid Khan took three wickets, while Sandeep Sharma and Thangarasu Natarajan cliamed two wickets each as a dominant Sunrisers Hyderabad crushed Delhi Capitals by 88 runs in the IPL match, in Dubai.

Rashid registered wonderful figures of 3-7 in four overs to send Delhi Capitals crushing for a lowly 131 in 19 overs, in reply to Sunrisers' huge total of 219 for two.

The victory helped Sunrisers keep their hopes alive of making it to the play-offs as they took their tally to 10 points from 12 games, while Delhi slipped to third position after suffering their third loss in a row.

Sandeep had rocked Delhi early with the wicket of Shikhar Dhawan for a duck in the opening over, while Shahbaz Nadeem accounted for Marcus Stoinis in the next over.

Rashid then left Delhi in a mess with two wickets in his first over -- as Shimron Hetmyer was bowled for 16 and Ajinkya Rahane was trapped leg before wicket for 26, to leave their team reeling on 55-4, in the seventh over.

Sunrisers kept chipping away at the wickets as none of the other Delhi batsmen could get going as they slipped to one of their biggest defeats of the season.
