Chasing 185 runs to win against the Delhi Daredevils was not a easy task but all the credits goes to the youngster Deepak Hooda. His amazing half-century to lead Rajasthan Royals to a thrilling three-wicket win over Delhi Daredevils.
But even on a day that belonged to the 19-year-old Hooda, Delhi spinner and man-of-the-match Imran Tahir made his presence felt with a four-wicket haul.
Walking into bat at No.6, the Baroda boy scored scintillating 25-ball 54 to help Royals chase down the 185-run target and register their second consecutive win of the season.
“Rajasthan Royals have played a part in it. They trusted me and I am just happy to repay their trust. Grateful to God that he helped me all along. Rahul Dravid always tells me that take the game to the end, believe in your ability and you will do it,” Hooda said in the post-match conference.
