Heinrich Klaasen also chipped in with a cameo of 32 runs from 19 balls as SRH were bowled out for 163. Mitchell Starc shone with the ball for DC, bagging a wonderful five-wicket haul. Left-arm spinner Kuldeep Yadav did a fine job as well, picking up three scalps.

Wicketkeeper-batter Abishek Porel remained unbeaten with 34 runs from 18 balls. Debutant leg spinner Zeeshan Ansari took three wickets for RH. The Delhi-based team chased the target in just 16 overs.

Here, we take a look at three moments from the match that generated buzz among the fans.


#1 Mitchell Starc claims his maiden five-wicket haul in T20 cricket

Mitchell Starc was on fire against SRH, running through the team's explosive batting lineup. The left-arm pacer dismissed Ishan Kishan and Nitish Reddy in the third over.

He provided his team with another crucial breakthrough in the powerplay, sending back the dangerous Travis Head in the fifth over. The 35-year-old then took the wickets of Harshal Patel and Wiaan Mulder in the 19th over to complete his maiden T20 five-wicket haul.

Starc finished with fantastic figures of 3.4-0-35-5. It is worth mentioning that he became the first-ever DC fast bowler to claim a fifer in the league's history. The veteran Australian bowler was adjudged the Player of the Match for his excellent spell.


#2 DC's spelding efforts in the field, including two outstanding catches

Barring a dropped catch from Abishek Porel, Delhi were fantastic in the field, producing some brilliant efforts. It started with Vipraj Nigam producing a direct hit with an underarm throw to run out opener Abhishek Sharma in the very first over.

#3 Zeeshan Ansari's eventful over on debut outing

SRH spinner Zeeshan Ansari's second over on his IPL debut was an eventful one. It started with him claiming the wicket of the well-set Faf du Plessis. The veteran batter was caught at deep mid-wicket after miscuing a big shot.

Jake Fraser-McGurk took Assari to the cleaners in the same over, hitting two fours and a six. However, the bowler enjoyed the last laugh, getting the swashbuckling batter caught and bowled on the final ball.
