Delhi Daredevils skipper Virender Sehwag must have had sweaty palms when he handed the ball over to Amit Mishra for the last over, but the leg-spinner came up tops to ensure that Hyderabad Deccan Chargers were kept behind by 12 runs.

In the match against Chennai Super Kings, Sehwag had handed the ball to Shoaib Malik with exactly the same number of runs - 15 - to get, and Delhi lost the match.

But on Thursday, Mishra was not to be denied, as he removed Ravi Teja, Pragyan Ojha and RP Singh off successive deliveries to ensure that Delhi claimed two vital points.

Mishra ended with figures of five for 17 off four overs, including the hat-trick, the second of the tournament
after Lakshmipathy Balaji. Mishra's victims included Shahid Afridi and Herschelle Gibbs.

With this win, Delhi have added to the points table after three unimpressive games, and now have 10 points from 10 matches, while Hyderabad continue to languish in seventh spot, with just four.
