After
the
Gladiators
bowled
the
Bulls
out,
their
opening
batsmen
Tom
Kohler-Cadmore
(51n.o
from
19
balls)
and
Tom
Banton
(44
from
21
balls)
took
the
game
away
with
an
opening
partnership
of
100
runs
in
6.3
overs.
Kohler-Cadmore
showed
prime
form
when
he
smashed
Adil
Rashid
for
four
sixes
in
the
third
over.
Banton
provided
plenty
of
support
from
the
other
end
as
he
smacked
Dwayne
Bravo
for
two
boundaries
in
the
sixth
over.
Dominic
Drakes
dismissed
Banton
in
the
seventh
over,
however,
Andre
Russell
came
in
and
wrapped
the
up
chase
with
two
consecutive
boundaries
off
Dwayne
Bravo’s
bowling
in
the
eighth
over.
Earlier,
Rilee
Rossouw
and
Rahmanullah
Gurbaz
provided
the
perfect
impetus
at
the
top
of
the
order
for
the
Delhi
Bulls
as
they
smashed
two
sixes
and
a
four
off
Odean
Smith’s
bowling
in
the
second
over.
Rossouw
kept
sending
the
ball
to
the
boundary,
however,
he
kept
losing
partners
at
the
other.
The
South
African,
who
struck
3
fours
and
4
sixes,
single-handedly
took
the
Delhi
Bulls’ score
to
101/7
in
8.4
overs
before
he
was
dismissed
for
48
runs
from
21
balls
by
Tymal
Mills.
Andre
Russell
was
the
pick
of
the
bowlers
for
the
Deccan
Gladiators
with
figures
of
3/17.
The
West
Indian
put
tremendous
pressure
on
the
Delhi
Bulls
batting
line-up
by
picking
up
the
wickets
of
Captain
Dwayne
Bravo,
Dominic
Drakes
and
Fazalhaq
Farooqi.
The
Deccan

effected
two
