After three straight defeats, Hyderabad finally returned to winning ways with a nine-run win over Delhi, at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Sunday, 29 April.

Aiden Markram's team opted to bat first and scored 197 runs, with Abhishek Sharma and Heinrich Klaasen scoring half-centuries. In response, Delhi could only score 188 runs. Mitchell Marsh top-scored for them with 66.

Abhishek Sharma was impressive with the bat for Hyderabad last season, but the team has experimented with him quite a bit this time around. He was dropped, came back as a middle-order batter, and now back as an opener. After a half-century in this match, he might have nailed his place in the team.

Hyderabad were 135/5 after 15 overs, before Heinrich Klaasen let fly. He is a crucial player for South Africa, but has never quite looked the part in this competition. In this game, he scored his first half-century in this tournament.

Delhi needed 87 runs off the last nine overs, with nine wickets in hand. Then, we saw four wickets falling in 28 runs. Bowing in tandem, Mayank Markande and Abhishek Sharma did well, while Akeal Hosein also chipped in with the important wicket of Mitchell Marsh, who scored 63 runs.
