Thursday Recap

Delhi struggled in their attempt to put runs on the board as the visiting party produced bowling success.

The hosts' middle order could not get going, and Delhi failed to deal with spin on a slow pitch at the Kotla with plenty of cracks.

Captain Shreyas Iyer offered Delhi hope with three fours and a total of 43 from 41 balls, but the Sunrisers stuck to their game plan.

The bowlers shared the wickets evenly and consistently, with Rashid Khan claiming Iyer's stumps.

Delhi's tail wagged to provide a respectable score. Axar Patel's late stand of 23 from 13 saved his side's blushes.

The IPL highlighted the away team's opening success:

After losing the toss, Sunrisers came out of the blocks fast with David Warner and Bairstow at the crease, and it was the Englishman who took the bull by the horns. The wicket-keeper smashed 17 runs off his first 11 balls, finding the boundary as Delhi failed to provide an answer.

Sandeep Lamichhane wasted a referral as he attempted to remove Bairstow, and it was clear the Sunrisers had the mental edge in the encounter.

BT Sport Cricket shared footage of Bairstow's explosive stand:

Bairstow finally fell to an LBW decision, and Delhi removed Warner in quick succession.

The Australian failed to find the boundary and was walking back to the pavilion after scoring only 10 before being caught.

Hyderabad wobbled after losing their openers but the Capitals struggled to make inroads.

Mohammad Nabi saw his team home by putting up a decisive 17 with an over to spare.
