SRH WIN BY 15 RUNSNeeding 28 to win off the last over, the task was too stiff from the outset for Kagiso Rabada and Axar Patel. Eventually, they managed only 12 as Sunrisers Hyderabad registered their maiden win of the season, beating Delhi Capitals by 15 runs. While David Warner, Jonny Bairstow and Kane Williamson starred with the bat, helping SRH to 162 on a slow wicket, Rashid Khan - who delivered his best figures in IPL - and Bhuvneshwar Kumar led the way with the ball. SRH ran well between the wickets and were the better team on the field even as Manish Pandey dropped a catch late in the day. With this result, all teams now have one win each.
WICKETT Natarajan has bowled a superb 19th over, making it difficult for Marcus Stoinis to hit out against the yorkers and eventually has him trapped legbefore.126/6 in 18 overs.
WICKETShimron Hetmyer's brief blitz comes to an end. He falls to Bhuvneshwar Kumar's plan as he fetches a full delivery angling outside off to Manish Pandey at long off. Delhi Capitals have managed to keep pace with the required rate of 12 for the last four overs. Can they continue at this pace for the next five?104/4 in 15.1 overs
80 needed off 40. Even as scoring hasn't been easy throughout the day, Rishabh Pant has hit a couple of sixes. Is the contest still on?
WICKETRashid Khan bags another wicket. Shikhar Dhawan edges a sweep to the 'keeper. Jonny Bairstow whips the bail off and in a delayed response appeals for caught behind. The snicko observes a spike but not when the bat is close to the ball. Bizarre dismissal.62/3 in 11.3 overs
TOSSDelhi Capitals won the toss and elected to field. Ishant Sharma comes in for Avesh Khan. Sunrisers Hyderabad have made two changes with Kane Williamson and Abdul Samad coming in for Mohammad Nabi and Wriddhiman Saha.

BUILD UP Hello and welcome to Match 11 of the Indian Premier League 2020 - between Delhi Capitals and Sunrisers Hyderabad. The two teams find themselves at the opposite ends of the points table, even as DC won a game they had no business winning and SRH lost a game they shouldn't have. However, with one team without a win and one team without a defeat so far in the competition, competing against each other, it's only David Warner and Co who would want to break the trend. A lot hasn't worked for them. The batsmen aren't getting enough runs and their bowling attack has lacked the bite. Against Delhi, it's not going to get any easier.
Nonetheless, despite winning both the games, Delhi are far from comfortable with their line-up. Their fielding has been disappointing and the search for the Indian pacer to fill in for Ishant Sharma hasn't yielded good results as yet - with both Mohit Sharma and Avesh Khan conceding plenty. Can they fix these issues?
