IPL 2024 Points Table: Updated After Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Delhi Capitals Match No 35

The 35th match of the IPl 2024 has seen a classic fixture between Delhi Capitals and Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Arun Jaitlry Stadium. The SRH batters re-established the definition of domination. Followed by an aggressive start, Hyderabad batters registered a win of 67 runs. That dominating win made a drastic change in the points table. 

SRH’s Batting Dominance and DC’s Bowling Struggle:

In the opening innings, Sunrisers Hyderabad showcased their batting prowess with an explosive start, led by Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head. Despite losing early wickets, Sharma’s aggressive 46 off 12 balls and Head’s remarkable 89 off 32 deliveries propelled them to a formidable total of 266/7, setting a new T20 record at the Arun Jaitley Stadium.

On the flip side, Delhi Capitals’ bowling unit struggled to contain the onslaught. While Kuldeep Yadav managed to make some breakthroughs, claiming four crucial wickets, including those of Sharma and Head, the rest of the bowling lineup failed to make a significant impact. Despite their efforts, Delhi Capitals found themselves grappling with Sunrisers Hyderabad’s dominant batting display, setting the stage for a challenging chase in their home turf debut at the Arun Jaitley Stadium.

Hyderabad’s Magic With Ball and Delhi’s Batting Failure:

After Sunrisers Hyderabad’s impressive batting display, their bowling unit maintained the pressure on Delhi Capitals. Washington Sundar struck early, dismissing Prithvi Shaw in the first over, while Bhuvneshwar Kumar added to Delhi’s woes by removing David Warner. However, it was T Natarajan who emerged as the star performer, claiming four crucial wickets for just 19 runs. His precise bowling accounted for the dismissals of key batsmen, including Lalit Yadav, Axar Patel, Anrich Nortje, and Kuldeep Yadav. Additionally, Mayank Markande contributed to the bowling effort by dismissing Jake Fraser-McGurk and Abhishek Porel.

Despite Sunrisers’ dominant bowling display, Delhi Capitals showed resilience with the bat. Jake Fraser-McGurk‘s explosive innings of 65 runs and contributions from Abhishek Porel and Rishabh Pant kept their hopes alive. However, they ultimately fell short against the disciplined bowling attack of Sunrisers Hyderabad, managing only 199 runs in their chase of 267. The comprehensive victory by 67 runs reaffirmed Sunrisers’ dominance in the match.
