In a thrilling encounter of the Delhi Premier League, North Delhi Strikers emerged victorious over South Delhi Superstarz by a commanding 61-run margin. The match witnessed explosive batting performances from Yash Dabas and Vaibhav Rawal, coupled with Siddhartha Solanki’s exceptional bowling display.
Dabas and Rawal formed a formidable partnership, amassing 124 runs for the third wicket. Dabas struck a blistering 68 off 40 deliveries, including 7 fours and 3 sixes, while Rawal remained unbeaten on 56 off 34 balls, hitting 6 fours and 2 sixes. Their aggressive batting propelled North Delhi to a formidable total of 209 for four in their allotted 20 overs.
South Delhi’s chase got off to a promising start, with openers Vaibhav Kandpal and Sarthak Ranjan putting on 53 runs in the first five overs. However, Raghav Singh’s double strike in the sixth over, dismissing both openers, halted their momentum.
Enter Siddhartha Solanki, who wreaked havoc on the Superstarz’s batting lineup. The right-arm pacer claimed five wickets for just 19 runs in his four-over spell, dismantling the opposition’s middle order. Solanki’s victims included Kunwar Bidhuri (42), Saurabh Deswal (16), Tejaswi Dahiya (0), Tarun Bisht (3), and Priyansh Arya (26).
Despite a valiant effort from Bidhuri, who top-scored for the Superstarz, the target proved too daunting. South Delhi were eventually bowled out for 148 in 16 overs, handing North Delhi a comprehensive victory.
