IPL 2018, DD vs SRH: Williamson, Dhawan help SRH beat DD by 9 wickets

Kane Williamson and Shikhar Dhawan have made the chase look like a cakewalk! It wasn't supposed to be on this surface, but they have made a breeze of it! Delhi had a good score on the board to defend, but once Dhawan turned up, it was always going to be tough. Rishabh Pant's magnificent 128 not out goes in vain.

It seems unreal how easily Hyderabad chased down the 188 target set by Delhi, as Rishabh Pant's heroics proved to be fruitless. Hyderabad scored 191/1, finishing the innings with an over and a ball to spare. It was Shikhar Dhawan and captain Kane Williamson who scored 92 and 83 respectively to take the game away from Delhi, in a dominating batting display.
