Delhi Capitals (DC) all-rounder Mitchell Marsh was seen applauding the fiery SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) batter, Harry Brook after the latter pulled off an exceptional effort to deny the batter a certain six in Mayank Markande’s second over at Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Saturday. Mitchell Marsh was on strike for an individual score of 47 in the 10th over of proceedings, as he attempted to clear the long-on boundary.
It looked like the ball will be clearing the boundary ropes easily but Harry Brook didn’t let that happen as he pulled off a stunning effort to save a certain six. The SRH overseas star took a high leap in the air near the boundary ropes and swatted the ball inside the field, with his feet still in the air.

A single was all Mitchell Marsh could take off that delivery and Brook ended up saving five valuable runs for his team. The match turned out to be quite an exciting affair. SRG posted a total of 197/6, riding on Abhishek Sharma’s 36-ball 67. Heinrich Klaasen’s 27-ball-53-run knock ensured that momentum was not lost with as many as 62 runs coming off the last five overs.
The South African managed to add as many as 53 from 33 balls with Abdul Samad (28 off 21 balls) and 35 off 18 balls with Akeal Hosein (16 off 10 balls) as SRH posted the highest score at the venue in IPL 2023.

The stylish Abhishek started the proceedings with back-to-back boundaries in the cover region off Ishant Sharma, who was also pulled for another four in the midwicket region.
