Hindustan Surkhiyan Desk: Half-centuries by Shikhar Dhawan and Shreyas Iyer’s coupled with late cameos from Sherfane Rutherford and Axar Patel powered Delhi Capitals (DC) to 187/5 against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in an IPL match on Sunday.
Keeping in mind the extremely dry nature of the wicket, Delhi Capitals skipper Iyer opted to bat first.
The openers began the Delhi innings on a steady note. Shikhar Dhawan sliced Umesh Yadav over the cover point to hit the first boundary for his team. Shaw also hit four boundaries and looked in dangerous form but couldn’t capitalise on his good start and perished for 18 in the fourth over with Yadav providing the first breakthrough for the visitors.
