Maxwell, Hazlewood help RCB to win, Warner's Delhi thrashed

Glenn Maxwell and Josh Hazlewood played key supporting roles in Royal Challengers Bangalore's big win over Sunrisers Hyderabad, with leg-spinner Wanindu Hasaranga's 5-18 and 73no from Faf du Plessis the key performances.

In Sunday's other match, Devon Conway smashed a third straight half-century and Moeen Ali picked up 3-13 as Chennai Super Kings registered an emphatic 91-run victory over David Warner's Delhi Capitals in the IPL.

At the Wankhede, Bangalore made 3-192 after winning the toss, despite an out-of-sorts Virat Kohli falling for a tame first-ball dismissal with a chip to mid-wicket to open the match, his third golden duck of the season.

Hyderabad's chase floundered from the start as Kane Williamson's team lost a fourth successive match, bowled out for 125 in 19.2 overs.

Skipper Du Plessis anchored Bangalore's innings with an unbeaten 73 off 50 balls.

Maxwell hit three fours and two sixes in his 33 off 24 balls while Dinesh Karthik continued to impress with his power-hitting in the late overs, smashing 30 off just eight balls.

Hyderabad struggled to pace their chase after Williamson was run out from the first ball while going for a needless run after a direct hit, and Abhishek Sharma was clean bowled by Maxwell without scoring.

Hasaranga bowled superbly in the middle overs on a wicket where the ball gripped for the spinners.

Rahul Tripathi (58) made a fighting half century before holing out to deep backward square leg in Hazlewood's return spell, and claimed a second wicket next ball with the Aussie quick producing excellent figures of 2-17 off his four overs.

Hasaranga ran through the tail in quick succession and finished his superb spell with a double-wicket maiden over with RCB claiming a 67-run win.

In the later match at Mumbai's DY Patil Stadium, New Zealander Conway's blistering 87 off 49 balls gave Chennai an impressive total of 6-208 with his opening partner Ruturaj Gaikwad making 41.

Both openers took charge against spinners and fast bowlers as they combined in a blazing 110-run stand in 11 overs.

Delhi allrounder Mitch Marsh collected 1-34 from three overs, with Shivam Dube caught on the long-on fence by Warner for 32 from 19.

Evergreen skipper MS Dhoni finished the innings in style with 21 from eight balls.

Delhi, who chose to bat second, then stumbled to 117 all out with more than two overs left. The in-form Warner was dismissed early for 17, failing to overturn an lbw verdict with a review after being struck on the back leg attempting a reverse sweep, while Marsh was dejected to have holed out to long-on off Moeen for 25 from 20 balls.

Moeen had wrecked Delhi's middle-order with the wickets of Marsh and Rishabh Pant (21) soon after the batting Powerplay.

Shardul Thakur delayed the inevitable by scoring 24 before he was caught behind off Bravo in the 18th over as Delhi were destroyed by some disciplined Chennai bowling.
