Deccan Chargers set modest target for Delhi Dare Devils

Hyderabad, Apr 22 (UNI) Hosts Deccan Chargers set a modest 141-run target for Delhi Dare Devils in their second league outing of the DLF Indian Premier League at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium here tonight.

Electing to bat, Deccan Chargers disappointed the home crowd as Delhi Dare Devil's Mohammed Asif got an early breakthrough dismissing cheaply Adam Gilchrist(8) and Skipper V V S Laxman(2).

Twenty-year-old Sharma who has been part of the World Cup winning side last year brought some respectablity to the hosts total which was otherwise lacklustre.

Digging lone forrow for Deccan Chargers, he scored a magnificient 66 runs, which included four sixers and six boundaries.
