Hyderabad opted to bat and posted 266 for seven. In response, Delhi ended with just 199. 

Travis Head (89:32b, 11x4, 6x6) and Abhishek Sharma (46:12b, 2x4, 6x6) went berserk at the top and made a mockery of the Delhi bowlers.

They shared a 131-run opening stand inside seven overs. Nitish Kumar Reddy (37:27b, 2x4, 2x6) and Shahbaz Ahmed (59 not out:29b, 2x4, 5x6) then made sure they end the innings on a high for the team.

The Nitish-Shahbaz pair added 67 runs as Hyderabad ended with a massive total of 266 for seven. 

Delhi were off to the worst possible start with the bat as both Prithvi Shaw and David Warner lost their wickets early.

Jake Fraser-McGurk (65:18b, 5x4, 7x6) and Abishek Porel (42:22b, 7x4. 1x6) played vital hands to keep the team in the game with their 84-run partnership. After their wickets, Delhi failed to get going as they lost wickets early.

Rishabh Pant (44:35b, 5x4, 1x6) played a decent hand but couldn’t take his team home. Delhi got bundled out for 199 and lost the game by 67 runs. T Natarajan was the pick of the bowlers with figures of four for 19.
