Scorecard details:

    Jesse Ryder starts a pull shot, Delhi Daredevils v Pune Warriors, IPL 2012, Delhi, April 21, 2012
Jesse Ryder was collected in a 93-run  with Sourav Ganguly.
Pune Warriors returned from two successive defeats to beat the form team Delhi Daredevils in this IPL thus far, well to an impressive all-round success. Sourav Ganguly is their captain he played a important role with bat and ball, and some exciting shot-play from Jesse Ryder and Steven Smith supported post a total that proved beyond of Delhi
Daredevils' strong-packed batting line-up. As the hosts were well on track when Virender Sehwag and Kevin Pietersen were going to strong  partnership, but the unwise ran out of steam when a couple of bowling changes proved decisive by accounting for both.
Daredevils were  against the Warriors' highest total of the season and needed a best open, but they early loss of Mahela Jayawardene. That brought two of their most destructive batsmen together, and the tempo of the innings from there on was a contrast to a sedate first four overs bowled by Alfonso Thomas and Ashish Nehra. Murali Kartik came on in the fifth, and Sehwag charged out to launch him for a straight six followed by a cut through point. Pietersen looked in command, targeting Angelo Mathews in the next over, slapping him disdainfully for a straight six then carving him over extra cover and long-on to make it three in four balls.

Sehwag then start his over, gradually building the pressure on his Warriors counterpart by making a motigate of each of his bowling changes. Ryder was carry for consecutive sixes over extra cover and Rahul Sharma was blasted into the second tier. The pair had added 71 in five overs, the bowling changes had failed and the Warriors captain tried another option, bringing himself on.

Pietersen had build up his mind and swung hard but Ganguly's first ball kept low, beat the bat and hit the stumps, prompting wild celebrations. In his next over, he was struck over midwicket for six by Irfan Pathan but had his man when an attempt at a similar shot produced a catch in the deep.

Daredevils were still in the game with  Sehwag batting, but Ganguly's decision to bring back Kartik paid off. Kartik tossed it up, bowled it slow, Sehwag struck one straight back at him and the bowler kept his cool to pluck a decisive catch.


As the seamers struggled with their lengths, either bowling too short or on a length, the otherwise miserly Nadeem too came in for some punishment. Smith launched him for sixes over his head and midwicket, and dispatched him for two fours, one off a reverse-sweep, to pick 23 in the 18th over. Sixty-seven came off the last five, giving Warriors an excellent shot at getting their campaign back on track. They did so, with their captain leading the way.
