New Delhi: Scoreboard of Delhi Daredevils vs Rajasthan Royals, Match 6 of Indian Premier League 2015 played at Feroz Shah Kotla stadium here on Sunday.
Deepak Hooda's 24-ball 54 and Ajinkya Rahane (47) helped Rajasthan Royals inflict the 11th consecutive loss on Delhi Daredevils in the Indian Premier League (IPL) with a three-wicket win.
In reply to the big target of 185 by the Daredevils, Royals struggled till the 19-year-old Hooda came and hit four sixes and three fours. They achieved the target with three wickets in hand.
Rahane held the innings together but Sanju Samson (11), stand-in skipper Steven Smith (10), Karun Nair (12-ball 20) and Stuart Binny (1) departed without any major contributions.
Royals, needing 13 off the final over, got over the line as Tim Southee hit a four when they required three in the final ball of the match.
With this loss, Daredevils matched the maximum losing streak in the IPL. Now-defunct Pune Warriors India had lost 11 matches in an earlier edition.
