David Warner. Sunrisers Hyderabad just found out in their first encounter after the acrimonious separation with their most prolific player on Thursday night at the Brabourne stadium. Delhi Capitals have been yearning for a one big innings from their batters and they had Warner taking strike, sniffing revenge against a franchise which had betrayed him last season. Warner came out unbeaten with a 58-ball 92, chest thrusting out after helping Capitals post a daunting 207/3 with the help of putting up an unbeaten 66-ball 122-run partnership with Rovman Powell who finished 67 not out off 35 balls. The ex-SRH talisman lived up to his X-factor billing when Capitals had to make two forced changes as Prithvi Shaw was under the weather and Axar Patel was nursing a groin injury. As it happened | Scorecard | Points TableWarner and Powell's onslaught coupled with some good new-ball bowling, led by Khaleel Ahmed (3/30) had put the target beyond SRH as Capitals notched up their fifth win of the season in 10 games. Nicholas Pooran threatened to chase the target down by himself with a belligerent 34-ball 62 while hitting six 6s but he was left with too much to do as SRH fell 21 short while losing eight wickets.
