Today in the 39th match of IPL 2013, Pune Warriors won the toss and elected to field first. Delhi Daredevils openers Mahela Jayawardene and Virender Sehwag added 20 runs in 4.1 overs for the first wicket stand. Mahela Jayawardene got out after scoring just 12 off 17 balls. Virender Sehwag and Unmukt Chand then took the team score past 50. Virender Sehwag was the next to fall as he scored 28 of 26 balls. Within the same over, Unmukt Chand also got out leaving Delhi at 68/3 in 10.2 overs. Then came David Warner who from the very first ball went all guns blazing. He scored brilliant 51 off 25 balls which included 4 fours and 4 sixes. It was his cameo which helped Delhi post a decent total of 164/5 in 20 overs.

Chasing 165 to win, Pune opened with Robin Uthappa and man in form Aaron Finch. The duo played well and added 76 runs for the first wicket partnership. In the 11th over, they both fell to Pathan after scoring 37 each. But they had laid a solid platform for the coming batsmen. Yuvraj Singh and Luke Wrigh then steadily took the team score past 100. The required rate was increasing rapidly but some good bowling by Delhi never allowed Pune easy runs. Twin blow in the 18th over sealed the fate of the match in Delhi’s favor as they won it by 15 runs.
