Heartbreak for Sunrisers as brilliant bowling efforts from Rashid and Khaleel go in vain in an exciting Eliminator
Rishabh Pant emerged the star of the evening as Delhi Capitals snatched a nervous two-wicket win over Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL Eliminator here on Wednesday.
Chasing 163 for victory, Delhi had stuttered after Khaleel Ahmed and Rashid Khan had snared four quick wickets between them. Thirty-four runs were needed off the final three overs when Pant exploded. He clobbered Basil Thampi for 20 runs in the space of four balls — two giant sixes over midwicket and two fours. Pant departed for 49 (21b, 2x4, 5x6), seemingly having done enough, but there was still time for some drama.
Amit Mishra was given out obstructing the field in the final over, leaving Delhi to score two off two, but Keemo Paul held his nerve. Delhi will now meet CSK in the second qualifier at the same venue on Friday.
