    David Warner scored 92 runs for Delhi Capitals against his former franchise Sunrisers Hyderabad. While Warner was left stranded on 92, Rovman Powell hit an impressive unbeaten 64 off 35 balls including 19 runs off the final over bowled by Umran Malik. Both Warner and Powell felt that the pitch at Brabourne Stadium was excellent for batting. Powell revealed that his plan was to target the slower balls and yorkers, while looking to hit through the line against fast balls on the good batting wicket. He was pleased with being moved up to number 5 in the batting order after discussing his preferences with captain Rishabh Pant.

    I think there is always room to improve but this is as close to the perfect performance as

    a batting group, yes," said Rishabh Pant at the post match presentation. He himself had

    failed to convert yet another start, falling to a full toss after getting to 26. However, DC

    came out of the game with plenty of positives including the useful returns with the ball of

    Anrich Nortje and Mitchell Marsh.

    The chief amongst those positives were that they managed to put in a mighty batting

    show, and finally have a top order batter get to a big score. David Warner's 92 against

    his former franchise needed "no extra motivation" according to the batter under perfect

    conditions for strokeplay. But even he was left breathless at the powerhitting of Rovman

    Powell.

    "Challenging here with the humidity at Mumbai, and I was cooked towards the back end,

    getting older. And having Rovman at the other end...he's got some serious power to

    clear the fences, was amazing striking and I was glad he was there at the other end,"

    said Warner deflecting the praise towards his partner.

    "I was backing up there towards the end, [but] it was a little bit silly of me to try and to

    run fast. Man he hits them clean, and gee do they go a long way," exclaimed Warner. "

    Even look at Livo [Liam Livingstone] there - 117m - these guys are clearing the fences

    like anything. I'm getting older, I've to get back to the gym. I'm only hitting 85m and I

    have to hit one 100m at some stage," said Warner who was left not out on 92 after

    egging on Powell. He did not get a shot at the hundred in the final over bowled by the

    pacy Umran Malik, but Powell managed to take 19 from it. hitting three fours and a six.
    "Yeah at the start of the over I asked him [Warner] if he wanted a single to try and get a

    hundred but he said 'Listen, that's not how our cricket is played'. I should try to smack it

    as hard and as far as I can, and I did that," chuckled Powell.

    Both Warner and Powell agreed that the pitch at the Brabourne stadium was excellent

    for batting and the latter revealed a simple plan for such a pitch.

    "It's just sometimes you plan for a particular ball - the slower balls and yorkers. Because

    the wicket is so good you can hit through the line when you see the fast ball. So it was

    just planning for the yorker and slower ball and those kinds of stuff," said Powell.

    Another bit of planning that also helped him came about when he was moved up to No.

    5 in the line-up after a chat with Rishabh Pant.

    "I had a conversation with Rishabh. He come to my room and asked my where I want to

    bat. And I tell him, 'Just trust me and I'll bat at No.5'. Over the last year or so, my ability

    to play spin has increased, I'm batting spin a lot better, I know I can bat pace already.

    So I just tell him to trust me at No. 5. Give me a chance to start, give me chance to bat

    the first 15-20 balls as how I want to bat it. And then the next 20 balls I will try to

    maximise," said Powell during the innings break.
