AFP, Mumbai :
David Warner hammered an unbeaten 92 and put on a 100-plus stand with Rovman Powell as Delhi Capitals eased to a 21-run win over Sunrisers Hyderabad in the Indian Premier League (IPL) on Thursday.
The Australia opener hit 12 fours and three sixes in his 58-ball innings, with the West Indies’ Powell finishing 67 not out off 35 balls with three fours and six massive sixes. Hyderabad could only manage 186-8 in reply to Delhi’s 207-3.
The Capitals leapfrog their opponents into fifth in the IPL table, one win from moving into the play-off spots. Seamer Bhuvneshwar Kumar bowled a wicket-maiden and dismissed Warner’s opening partner Mandeep Singh to give Sunrisers a perfect start after skipper Kane Williamson won the toss and chose to field first.
