Delhi Daredevils rode on a half-century and four wickets by JP Duminy to beat Sunrisers Hyderabad by four runs on Saturday. Catch all the updates here: (SCORECARD/POINTS TABLE/STATS)
7:32 IST: Excellent last over by Coulter-Nile and great fielding by Agarwal to block a SIX. Delhi beat Hyderabad by four runs.
7:23 IST: Some late order blitz from Karn and Ashish Reddy has left the Sunrisers needing only 10 off the last over to beat Delhi Daredevils.
7:16 IST: Karn Sharma goes ballistic as 16 runs come off the 18th over. SRH are suddenly in sight now with 23 needed off the last 12 balls.
7:11 IST: WICKET! That's the end of Morgan and Duminy pockets his fourth wicket. What a show this has been by the Delhi captain, to go with his half-century. SRH need 39 off three overs with six wickets in hand.
7:09 IST: WICKET! And that could be the end of Sunrisers' hopes as Duminy has Bopara (41) caught in the deep. SRH are 128/5 in the 17th over and need 40 off 20 balls.
7:03 IST: WICKET! Naman Ojha falls to Imran Tahir for 12 and Sunrisers Hyderabad are 120/4 off 16 overs; they need 48 from the last four to beat Delhi Daredevils.
6:48 IST: WICKET! Lokesh Rahul was settling down nicely but he was castled by Angelo Mathews for 22. Sunrisers Hyderabad chasing 168, reach 90/3 off 13 overs.

6:26 IST: WICKET! What an over by Duminy; a leading edge is smartly held by the bowler. Skipper gets skipper and this match has now opened up nicely. Bopara and Rahul in the middle together. SRH 51/2 in 6.3 overs
6:25 IST: WICKET! Duminy has struck - he removes Dhawan for an 18-ball 18. The straight ball just held its line as it hit the stumps.
6:21 IST: Warner is a bully and Domnic is learning fast. The SRH skipper has taken 18 runs off the over as Sunrisers Hyderabad reached 50/0 in 6 overs
6:14 IST: Mathews in the attack and Dhawan helps himself to a boundary. This is not an explosive start but SRH have enough firepower down the order. Dhawan is unbeaten on 18 and Warner 10 not out.
6:06 IST: Warner and Dhawan have been watchful to start with; SRH 17/0 in three overs, chasing 168.

6:01 IST: Duminy brings himself into the attack and gives away seven runs. SRH 10/0 in 2 overs, chasing 168.
5:58 IST: Just three runs off the first over from Coulter-Nile. Dhawan and Warner have to set up a good opening stand here. The Daredevils have two quality leg-spinners in their ranks.
5:36 IST: Fifties by Duminy and Iyer and some lower-order hitting by Jadhav and Mathews helped Delhi to 167/4 off their 20 overs vs Hyderabad.
5:32 IST: Praveen Kumar went for 16 runs in the penultimate over; Mathews and Jadhav helped themselves to a SIX each as DD move to 158/4 in 19.
5:19 IST: Screamer from David Warner in the deep sends Yuvraj Singh packing for 9. The wicket goes to Reddy but it was all Warner's doing - sheer magic. DD 132/4 in 16.1 overs as Angelo Mathews and Kedar Jadhav get together.
5:17 IST: WICKET! Duminy is gone - Steyn has knocked off his timber for 54. And the Proteas pacer exults. Delhi Daredevils are 132/3 off 16 overs.

5:14 IST: Duminy is cracking away; he hammered Bopara for two fours and a six and then tonked Steyn for a six to bring up his 11th IPL fifty off 39 balls. DD 128/2 in 15.2 overs.
4:46 IST: DROPPED! That was a tough chance but Bopara should have taken it. Yuvi mistimed a shot on the leg side off Praveen and a diving Bopara could not keep the ball in his hands. He would have gone for a duck.
4:53 IST: WICKET! Finally, Praveen Kumar strikes to remove Shreyas Iyer for a 40-ball 60. Yuvraj Singh walks in to join JP Duminy.
4:50 IST: Daredevils have picked up the ante now, thanks to Iyer. DD are 92/1 in 11 overs. But will there be enough time for Yuvraj to come in and explode?
4:45 IST: Iyer on fire! He smashed Karn Sharma for two successive sixes to bring up his maiden IPL fifty off just 32 balls as DD move to 80/1 in the 10th over.
4:42 IST: SRH have not managed another breakthrough but David Warner would not be too disappointed with his batsmen. DD are 66/1 in 9 overs - time is running out quickly for the Daredevils.
4:34 IST: Seven overs and 46 runs. This is not a bad start for the Daredevils. But they would like a move on from this position. Yuvraj Singh roared back to form in the last game but he needs to spend some time in the middle to make an impact.

4:28 IST: Delhi Daredevils are 40/1 in 6 overs as Shreyas Iyer and JP Duming go from strength to strength.
4:21 IST: Delhi Daredevils have a strong batting line-up but they need JP Duminy to anchor the innings so that Yuvraj Singh and Angelo Mathews have the platform later to come and lay into the SRH attack. DD 29/1 in 5 overs.
4:11 IST: WICKET! Bhuvneshwar Kumar has struck in his first over. What a moment this in the match. Warner has tried three different bowlers with the new ball and Bhuvi has done the damage, removing the dangerous Mayank Agarwal.

4:04 IST: Praveen Kumar gives away 7 runs in his first over. Delhi Daredevils openers Agarwal and Iyer will look to lay a strong foundation.

Mayank Agarwal, who helped Delhi Daredevils end their 11-match losing streak, will be up against some quality seam bowling on Saturday. Designated as an 'India prospect' by Yuvraj Singh, Mayank will have to handle the likes of Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Kiwi star Trent Boult, who remains the spearhead of Hyderabad attack.(Daredevils Look to Maintain Momentum)

Yuvraj will again have to justify his price. Batting at No. 4, he struck a decisive 50 in the last game. Apart from Yuvraj, skipper JP Duminy will have to score the runs to give enough cushion for the bowlers to attack.(Yuvraj All Praise for Mayank)
Delhi will be upbeat after the win against Kings XI. NDTV expert Dean Jones reckons Delhi be up and running and coach Gary Kirsten will not lose the advantage.('I Was Sleeping During Auction')

Sunrisers have been a mixed bag. They lost their last match against Rajasthan Royals. The team looks over-dependent on Shikhar Dhawan and skipper David Warner. Dhawan (1024) and Warner (659) are Sunrisers' highest run-scorers. The next best is Naman Ojha (272), having played only three fewer matches than Warner. This gap has to be bridged if Hyderabad have to make the last four. The clutch of home talents must come to the party for the home team today.(Dean Jones Hails David Warner's Captaincy)
