Cricket Highlights, March 30: IPL 2025 (10th Match) – SRH vs DC

SRH vs DC (10th Match) – Highlights

In this article, we will discuss the thrilling encounter between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Delhi Capitals in the 10th match of the Indian Premier League 2025, held in Visakhapatnam on March 30. Delhi Capitals showcased a dominant performance, securing a convincing 7-wicket victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad with 24 balls to spare. Chasing a target of 164, DC’s batting lineup displayed remarkable composure, reaching 166/3 in just 16 overs. Meanwhile, SRH struggled to set a competitive total despite their efforts. 

Opting to bat first, Sunrisers Hyderabad got off to a shaky start as they lost early wickets. Abhishek Sharma departed on the very first ball, run out by Vipraj Nigam, setting the tone for a challenging innings. Travis Head, known for his explosive batting, attempted to counterattack but could only manage 22 off 12 balls before falling to Mitchell Starc. Ishan Kishan and Nitish Kumar Reddy failed to make an impact, with Starc dismissing both cheaply, leaving SRH reeling at 25/3 in the third over.

However, Aniket Verma emerged as the lone warrior for SRH, playing a sensational knock of 74 off 41 balls, laced with five fours and six sixes. His aggressive approach stabilized the innings, especially with Heinrich Klaasen at the other end. Klaasen contributed 32 off 19 balls before falling to Mohit Sharma, breaking a crucial partnership.

Despite their efforts, the middle and lower order failed to capitalize on the momentum. Kuldeep Yadav struck thrice, removing Pat Cummins, Abhinav Manohar, and Aniket Verma, while Starc’s five-wicket haul dismantled SRH completely. They were bundled out for 163 in 18.4 overs, a total that seemed below par on a batting-friendly pitch.

Chasing 164, Delhi Capitals got off to a strong start, courtesy of a brilliant knock by Faf du Plessis. The veteran batter led the charge with a blistering 50 off just 27 balls, setting the perfect foundation for the chase. He was well supported by Jake Fraser-McGurk, who played a steady hand, scoring 38 off 32 deliveries. The duo stitched together an 81-run opening stand before du Plessis fell to Zeeshan Ansari in the 10th over.

Fraser-McGurk followed soon after, also falling to Ansari, but by then, DC had gained firm control of the chase. KL Rahul provided a quick cameo, smashing 15 off just 5 balls, including two fours and a six, before being bowled by Ansari, who was the lone bright spot in SRH’s bowling attack. Abishek Porel and Tristan Stubbs then finished the job in style, with Porel remaining unbeaten on 34 off 18 balls and Stubbs adding 21 off 14. Their aggressive stroke play ensured DC reached the target in just 16 overs, maintaining a run rate of 10.37.
