Sunrisers down Delhi's Aussie duo

Sunrisers Hyderabad pulled off their highest successful chase in this IPL to stay top of the ladder, handing Delhi Daredevils yet another defeat.

Kane Williamson (32) and Yusuf Pathan led Hyderabad to 3-164 to beat the Daredevils by seven wickets with one ball remaining, Delhi's seventh loss in 10 games.

Chennai had earlier moved ahead of Sunrisers in the ladder after their win over Bangalore, but the evening result means Hyderabad are top with an advantage of 0.05 on Net Run Rate.

Hyderabad and Chennai have seven wins each, but Hyderabad have a game in hand.

Alex Hales (45) and Shikhar Dhawan (33) provided Hyderabad a confident start although Delhi should have removed Hales in the second over when Australian allrounder Glenn Maxwell dropped a sitter in the deep.

Leg-spinner Amit Mishra clean-bowled both openers in successive overs but Delhi missed another opportunity when Pathan was also dropped in the deep by Vijay Shankar in the 18th over before he scored.

With 14 required off the last over, Pathan hit 2-6-4-1 off Dan Christian's first four deliveries, and Williamson finished off Delhi.

Williamson scored 32 not out and Pathan hit two sixes and two fours in 27 not out off 12 balls.
