Faf du Plessis scored 50 off 27 balls as Delhi Capitals beat Sunrisers Hyderabad by seven wickets on Sunday to secure a second consecutive win in the Indian Premier League.The 40-year-old du Plessis hit three fours and three sixes as he put on 81 off 55 balls for the first wicket with Jake Fraser-McGurk (38) helping Delhi chase down the 164-run target with four overs to spare.

Sunrisers Hyderabad, runners-up last season, had played their first two games of IPL 2025 at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, their home ground. The 2016 IPL champions, however, are reportedly considering moving their remaining home games elsewhere.

Sunrisers spinner Zeeshan Ansari dismissed both players on his IPL debut to put the brakes on with 3-42. However, Abishek Porel and Tristan Stubbs finished unbeaten on 34 and 21 respectively as they got Delhi over the line with 30 balls to spare.
