Young skipper Yash Dhull finally found some form going his way as Delhi reached 223 for five after bowling out Hyderabad for 355 in their Ranji Trophy Group B match on Wednesday.

Back to opening the innings after missing his team’s historic win over traditional rivals Mumbai in the previous round, Dhull made 72 runs off 74 balls on the second day of the elite group game as Delhi scored at over four runs an over.

IPL star Ayush Badoni was batting on an 85-ball 78 when the stumps were drawn for the day.

It is some sort of redemption for the 20-year-old Dhull, whose nightmarish Ranji season got worse after the ”sick” Delhi captain was ruled out of their clash against Mumbai last week.

Dhull’s debut season though was a successful one as he scored 820 runs, including four hundreds, at an average of 74.54.

Thanks to consistency, Dhull was named captain of the Delhi Ranji team this season, which also included 100-Test veteran Ishant Sharma and IPL star Nitish Rana, less than a year after he captained India Under-19 to a World Cup title triumph.

Resuming the day on 247 for four, Hyderabad were helped by Rohit Rayudu’s fine knock of 153. Rayudu was batting on 90 overnight.

Seamers Harshit Rana and Divij Mehra picked up three wickets apiece for Delhi while Pranshu Vijayran and Hrithik Shokeen bagged two each.

At stumps, Delhi trailed the hosts by 132 runs.
