Victorian Bushrangers beat Delhi Daredevils Daredevils by 7 wickets
Victorian Bushrangers
Delhi Daredevils
Victorian Bushrangers have won their opening match of the Champions League Twenty20, defeating home-team Delhi Daredevils by 7 wickets in front of a huge home-crowd. Chasing 99, Rob Quiney began aggressively as he scored 40 runs off the 50-run opening stand before getting dismissed. He had already put Victoria on the road to victory. The Delhi bowlers managed to trouble the Australian batsman in the middle of the innings but could never put them under any kind of pressure because of the small total they were defending. Cameron White eventually led his team home with 20 balls to spare. It was a clinical all-round display by Victoria as they out-played Delhi in all three facets of the game. Clint McKay is named Man of the Match for his spectacular figures of 17-3 after 4 overs. He was hugely responsible for restricting Delhi to a meager total. That's all we have for you today. Do join us for another day of exciting Champions League action tomorrow as Cape Cobras play their second game against the Kiwi-side Otago tomorrow. The second game of the day features Deccan Chargers versus Somerset, which promises to be another enthralling contest. Do join us then. Goodbye, for now.
