Match 34 of the IPL 2023 took place last night in Hyderabad at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium. With their seven-run victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad, the Delhi Capitals increased their standings lead to four points. In Hyderabad, DC captain David Warner chose to bat first after winning the toss. Manish Pandey and Axar Patel hit threes to help DC score 144 runs.
Washington Sundar, an offspinner, emerged as the best bowler for the home team. In four overs, he returned with figures of 3/28. Pursuing 145, Sunrisers Hyderabad couldn’t construct any huge organizations. Abhishek Sharma, Rahul Tripathi, Harry Brook, and Aiden Markram all lost wickets quickly in the 15th over, reducing SRH to 85/5.
Appearances from Heinrich Klaasen and Washington Sundar kept SRH alive until the last finished, however Mukesh Kumar’s splendor denied the Orange Armed force a success on home soil. The match among SRH and DC was a low-scoring thrill ride. Following the conclusion of the game, the following is a look at the three instances that sparked social media buzz among fans.
1) David Warner won the toss for Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL 2023 match.
David Warner got back to Hyderabad’s Rajiv Gandhi Global Arena without precedent for four years. He led the Sunrisers Hyderabad team to their only championship in 2016 while serving as captain for a considerable amount of time.
Warner led the Delhi Capitals against the Sunrisers Hyderabad last night and was present at the toss. The Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium crowd cheered for Warner when he won the toss.
2) The return of Washington Sundar in IPL 2023
In the first six matches of the IPL 2023, Washington Sundar did not take a wicket. The off-spinner kept his spot in the starting lineup for the match against the Delhi Capitals and showed up in style by bowling out three batters in the same over.
DC’s eighth over was bowled by Sundar. David Warner was dismissed when the score was 57/2. Before long, Sundar excused Sarfaraz Khan and Aman Hakim Khan too, as the Capitals were diminished to 62/5 after the finish of the eighth over.
The SRH all-rounder’s triple strike gave him confidence, which showed in his batting as well. Sundar managed to score 24 runs in just 15 balls, but SRH lost by seven runs.
3) Mukesh Kumar keeps his cool to help Delhi Capitals win the IPL 2023 for the second time.
Before playing Sunrisers Hyderabad in IPL 2023, Mukesh Kumar’s economy rate was close to 10. DC fans were surprised when David Warner gave Kumar the ball to defend 13 runs off the last six balls after he gave up 22 runs in his first two overs against SRH.
A fielding penalty was imposed due to the slow over rate, and only four fielders were permitted outside the 30-yard circle, making matters worse for DC. Mukesh kept his nerve and nailed his yorkers. He only gave up five runs in the 20th over, which contributed to DC’s memorable victory.
