IPL 2017: DD vs SRH, 5 mistakes Delhi Daredevils committed against Sunrisers Hyderabad

#3 Karun Nair-Sanju Samson's brain fade

Karun Nair gifted away his wicket at a crucial time

With the strategic time-out just done and a part-timer in Yuvraj Singh brought into the attack, Delhi had the opportunity to go big. Sanju Samson set the tempo with a powerful cut off the first ball that raced to the point fence.

But the next ball turned things around as Samson and Nair attempted a suicidal second run after the former pushed the ball to long-on. Vijay Shankar, the substitute fielder, sent in an accurate throw enabling Yuvi to break the stumps way before Nair had grounded his bat.

Nair was on 33 off 23 and Samson on 35 off 21 when the moment of madness gifted the advantage to the home side. The duo were playing extremely well and looked set to take Delhi home when they chased a greedy run.
