Pat Cummins
Pat Cummins was not seen in his rhythm in IPL 2025, but he appeared in a completely different style against Delhi Capitals and presented a sample of fatal bowling from the beginning of the innings. He badly demolished the top order of Delhi Capitals.
Wicket took wicket on the first ball of the innings
The first over of the innings for Sunrisers Hyderabad was by Pat Cummins. On the very first ball of this over, he dismissed Karun Nair. Then in the over too, he bowled well and gave just three runs. This brought the team of Delhi Capitals under pressure.
Batting order of Delhi Capitals burnt
After this, Cummins did the third over of the innings. On the first ball of this over, he sent Dhakad batsman Fof du Plessis to the pavilion. At the same time, on the first ball of the fifth over, he dismissed Abhishek Porel. He destroyed the batting order of Delhi Capitals with good bowling. In front of him, Delhi batsmen were craving to stay away at the crease.
Gained three wickets in powerplay
He scored three overs in the powerplay and took a wicket on the first ball of each over. In this way, he has become the first captain to take three wickets in the powerplay of the IPL match. Nobody could do this before them. He scored four overs in the match and took three important wickets for 19 runs. He proved to be quite economical.
Delhi Capitals scored only 26 runs in powerplay
Apart from Pat Cummins, Harshal Patel also took Akshar Patel’s wicket in Powerplay. In this way, the team of Delhi Capitals could score only 26 runs against Sunrisers Hyderabad at the loss of four wickets in the powerplay. Delhi batsmen performed very poorly. Triston Stabus and Ashutosh Sharma scored the highest innings of 41-41 runs for the team, but both of them did not get the support of the rest of the players. For this reason, the entire team could score only 133 runs.
