Delhi predictably got six points but lost three wickets in their pursuit of a meagre 84-run target, failing to log home a bonus point in their third group A Ranji Trophy league encounter against Hyderabad here on Saturday.
Delhi now have seven points from three games and are currently placed 12th in the combined points list of the 18 teams in group A and B.
Hyderabad are second last with three defeats in as many games.
However, Delhi’s problems will compound after Saturday’s match as they will miss the services of Shikhar Dhawan, Navdeep Saini and Ishant Sharma when they next face Punjab in an away game.
Punjab are currently on top of the Elite table with 17 points from two wins with bonus points.
While Dhawan and Saini will not be playing the next game due to international commitments, Ishant will be available in the third game as a part of workload management programme.
