Delhi openers scored 45 runs in just five overs sparing no chance for the bowlers to make a room for them. However, Himachal bowlers made a come back and took two quick wickets but by then Delhi had already reached a position from where victory was not far away. Delhi won comfortably achieving the target in 166 runs for the loss of four wickets. Yogesh contributed highest 56 runs for Delhi while Vartik Tihara and Tarun Choudhary contributed 45 and 29 runs respectively.
