A valuable knock of 43 by Paul Nixon enabled Delhi Giants post a competitive 167-7 in their alloted 20 overs against Ahmedabad Rockets in the ICL 20s Indian Championship here at the LB stadium in Hyderabad on Sunday. Putting Giants in to bat after winning the toss, the Rockets bowlers dettered the batsmen from getting off to a flier. And then Heath Streak gave the first breakthrough as he returned opener Dale Benkenstein. He took two more wickets to finish at 3-23 in his four overs.
Abhinav Bali (35) and Nixon helped the Giants reach a good total.
Teams:
Ahmedabad Rockets: Damien Martyn, Ryan Campbell, Parviz Aziz, Murray Goodwin, Sridharan Sriram, Reetinder Sodhi, Anshu Jain, Heath Streak, Rakesh Patel, Sumit Kalia, Jason Gillespie.
Delhi Giants: Dale Benkenstein, Avishka Gunawardene, Abhinav Bali, Abbas Ali, Paul Nixon, Jai Prakash Yadav, Taduri Sudhindra, Shane Bond, Marvan Atapattu (Capt), Ali Murtaza, Shalabh Srivastava.
