In DPL T20 South Delhi Superstarz smash Sunrisers Hyderabad’s record
South Delhi Superstarz certainly has did the unthinkable in the ongoing Delhi Premier League (DPL) T20, as the ShikharDhawan-co-owned team bludgeoned 308 runs in their 20 overs against North Delhi Strikers.
Witnessing the complete mayhem put up by Priyansh Arya and Ayush Badoni of South Delhi was surreal. The two lads bludgeoned a partnership of 286 runs in just a matter of 99 balls. Due to the batsmen' combined hitting, none of the North Delhi Strikers' bowlers knew where to place their deliveries. Priyansh Arya lit up the Arun Jaitley Stadium with six sixes off left-arm spinner Manan Bhardwaj.
Barring PranshuVijayran, none of the North Delhi bowler had an economy rate of under 10. Also, had Siddharth Solanki not leaked just 9 runs off the last over, we could’ve seen the world record set by Nepal take a hit. Thirteen of the 120 balls that were bowled in the first innings went over the boundary ropes, with nineteen of those going for fours.
That sums up to 50 sixes and fours in total! All credit goes to Badoni and Arya. Arya scored his second century in DPLT20, while Badoni amassed 165, shattering the record for the greatest individual score by an Indian in T20 cricket.
