The captain of Sunrisers Hyderabad, David Warner has bowled in the match against Delhi Capitals. Vijay Shankar has been bowling his second over of the match and he has clutched his left hamstring during this over. He has already bowled five balls in the over. So, someone has to bowl the remaining one ball. Sunrisers Hyderabad’s captain David Warner has taken the responsibility and he has bowled that one ball.
The first ball of David Warner has gone to the leg side. The left-hander wicketkeeper-batsman of Delhi Capitals, Rishabh Pant has been batting in the crease. Rishabh Pant has played the ball towards long-off to take a single in the last ball of the over.

A Debut Over In IPL History By David Warner
Sunrisers Hyderabad has failed to chase down a score of 127 in the previous match against Kings XI Punjab. The captain of Sunrisers Hyderabad, David Warner has been fuming after the defeat. They have got a brilliant start in that match. Johnny Bairstow and David Warner have scored 56 runs in the power play. However, they have lost these two wickets after the end of the powerplay. After that, the middle order batsmen have taken it casually.
They have been knocking the balls for singles and they have not taken any risk in the middle orders. After losing the wicket of Manish Pandey in the 17th over of the match, Sunrisers Hyderabad has lost their way in the run chase. After that defeat, Sunrisers Hyderabad has come in the field with an attacking mindset. The management has decided to make three changes in the lineup. Johnny Bairstow has been sacrificed to give chance to Kane Williamson in the middle overs. Wriddhiman Saha has also come back in the side after sitting out many games.
The openers have started the innings with positive intent. Sunrisers Hyderabad has scored 74 runs in the powerplay. David Warner has played an innings of 66 runs in 34 balls on his birthday. Wriddhiman Saha has continued to play his shots. He has scored 87 runs in 45 balls and kept the scoreboard moving. The pitch has not been easy to bat. The wicket has gone a bit on the slower side in the second innings.
The Brilliant Man Of The Match Of The Game
Rashid Khan has shown his magic once again with the ball. Rashid Khan has bowled 17 dot balls in his four overs spell. It has taken the game completely away from Delhi Capitals. Rashid Khan has taken two important wickets of Hetmyer and Rahane in the first over. He has also taken the wicket of Axar Patel in his fourth over. He has only conceded seven runs in his four overs spell. Wriddhiman Saha has been adjudged as the man of the match because of his brilliant innings.
After this defeat, Delhi Capitals are now under huge pressure. They will have to play against Mumbai Indians and Royal Challengers Bangalore in the last two matches. It will be really tough for them to get a win from those two games. The net run-rate will also not be in their favour after this huge defeat.
