Axar Patel-led Delhi Capitals suffered a massive 47-run defeat at the hands of Sunrisers Hyderabad in their IPL 2026 game on Tuesday. In the match at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad, DC captain Axar won the toss and opted to bowl first. SRH put on a batting show and posted a mammoth total of 242 for 2 in the allotted 20 overs. Abhishek Sharma shone with an unbeaten 135-run knock, while Heinrich Klaasen and Travis Head also contributed with identical scores of 37. In the chase, Delhi failed to give a serious fight and were restricted to 195 for 9 despite Nitish Rana's 57. While Abhishek played a sensational knock, Axar's poor captaincy also helped SRH's cause. The DC skipper and Kuldeep Yadav bowled two overs each, while Nitish Rana, a part-time spinner, was given four overs.

The government has received 32 applications for production-linked incentive (PLI) scheme 2.0 for IT hardware, of which 25 are domestic companies, IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw told reporters in Delhi on Wednesday.
The announcement comes days after the government announced restrictions in laptop imports from November.
All of them are driven to gear up manufacturing and bring in supply chains.
Mr Vaishnaw said companies like HP, Dell, Lenovo, Thompson, Acer, and Asus will be manufacturing laptops under the scheme. HP, VVDN, Lenovo will be manufacturing servers.
He said Apple has not applied under the PLI framework, but the company is already manufacturing components.
This move should see a significant reduction in the import of laptops and PCs, Vaishnaw said, adding that "import restrictions are not a worry anymore."
"I spoke to all the applicants, and they didn't raise any concern," he said.
The minister said incremental production expected is around Rs 3.35 lakh crore and the expected direct employment is around 75,000.
"The upcoming Dixon factory in Noida will alone employ 25,000 people," he said.
Manufacturing of laptops will begin by April 2024, officials said, as companies such as Dell are also migrating to PLI scheme.
When asked if India is optimising on big players quitting China with its economy slowing down, Mr Vaishnaw said India is emerging as a trusted value chain partner.
"Many of these companies will use the semiconductors manufactured in India. In fact, they were pleased we are starting with the manufacturing of memory first, which is crucial for laptops. Companies have shared their detailed proposals. We are optimistic more will join," he said.
