DC vs SRH, IPL 2023 highlights: Sunrisers beat Delhi by 9 runs

Marsh is out there on three off four, Salt on 12 off six. This is a great chance for Marsh to put up the ultimate all-round performance.

Warner drags on! He tries to pull but it doesn't come up as much, bottom edge and stumps and Warner is out for a two-ball duck.

Warner b Bhuvneshwar 0 (2), DC 0/1 in 0.2 overs

“The pitch was similar to the pitch we had during our practise here, it was keeping low and stopping a bit. We didn't want to play anything fancy and played according to the ball. I had a plan with Brian Lara, he told me to go after the fast bowlers. I was going for it against the fast bowlers, and luckily it paid off. I was looking for a total of around 180, I wanted to bat till the 16th or 17th over. But I'm happy that we got more than that. I have been bowling in my practise sessions, just waiting for my chance.”

Two runs off the second ball to get past the mark, his first fifty of the season. This innings has been all about two 25-ball fifties, first from Abhishek and then from Klaasen.

Klaasen tries to reverse scoop the first ball of the last over and he ends up getting back off the back of the blade. Still goes for four.

Slower ball from Marsh to end the 19th, Hosein goes outside off and nails a pull shot to the boundary.

Last ball of the 17th, Samad looks to cut and ends up getting a top edge to the wicketkeeper. May the fourth be with you, says Salt to Marsh. He has one more over left, can he take a fifth and, probably more importantly for DC, will this good form with the ball transfer to the bat?

Samad c Salt b Marsh 28 (21), SRH 162/6 in 17 overs

Samad gets into the party and it is dangerman Mitchell Marsh at the receiving end now. Short in line from Marsh for the third ball of the 17th, Samad slaps it over midwicket.

Axar sends the fifth ball of the 16th quick and short and Klaasen hits it over wide long on. Then the last ball is sent over midwicket for another. He moves to 33 off 17, SRH are 152/6 in 16 overs

Samad hits the last ball of that over for a six. He is on 8 off 6, Klaasen on 16 off 10. This is turning out to be a good partnership for SRH and it looks like SRH might just get a total that will leave the DC dressing room worried.

Abhishek Sharma is caught at wide long-on and of course it is Axar Patel who gets the big fish.

Abhishek c Warner b AR Patel 67 (36), SRH 109/5 in 11.3 overs

Mukesh Sharma oversteps for the fifth ball of the 11th and Klaasen hits the next ball back down the ground for a four. He gets to 6, can he get to that double digit that has proven so elusive for the rest of his teammates today.

Abhishek Sharma the lone warrior so far for SRH. The first ball of the 11th is high over midwicket and it goes one bounce over the rope. Then Abhishek hits the next one through extra cover, pure timing.

Marsh gets his third in less than 2 overs! Back of a length, Brook pulls and hits it straight to midwicket.

Brook c Axar b Marsh 0 (2), SRH 83/4 in 9.4 overs

Short from Marsh, Markram tries the pull but doesn't quite the elevation required. He puts it straight down the throat of Axar Patel at wide deep midwicket. Markram added just six runs after being dropped so that mishap didn't cost DC too much in the end.

Markram c Axar b Marsh 8 (13), SRH 83/3 in 9.2 overs

Kuldeep tosses it up just outside off, Abhishek steps down the pitch and hits over the bowler's head.

What a wonderful way to get to it. Kuldeep flights the last ball of the over full on fourth stump, Abhishek smashes this over midwicket and it goes into the stands. He gets to 50 in 25 balls, SRH are 71/2 in seven overs.

Anguish for DC at the moment. Markram smashes Kuldeep down the ground, it is going straight down the throat of long on but Nortje cannot hold on to it!

Ishant misses the yorker and Abhishek smashes it back over the bowler's head for his ninth four of the innings. SRH are 62/2 in 6 overs, Abhishek on 43 off 23.

The fifth ball of the over is sent in at a length and Abhishek swivels and hits it over wide mid-on to the rope. What a knock he is playing here.

Third ball of the sixth, Abhishek goes on the front foot and smashes it over extra cover to the boundary.

Captain Aiden Markram is out there now. His side has maintained a good run rate, largely thanks to Abhishek Sharma, who is on 27 off 17. He will be on strike to Ishant Sharma in the last over of the powerplay.

Tripathi miscues almost a nataraja slap shot there and hits it straight to mid-off, instead of hitting it over the fielder there. The SRH batters are all going for it today.

Tripathi c Pandey b Marsh 10 (6), SRH 44/2 in 4.4 overs

SRH 28/1 in 3 overs. Abhishek Sharma pulls the last ball of that over above midwicket to the boundary. He moves to 20 off 11.
