**New Delhi, [Date]:** Delhi secured a convincing 47-run victory over Uttar Pradesh in a Group C encounter of the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2024. Priyansh Arya’s stunning century spearheaded Delhi’s triumph, despite a valiant effort from Uttar Pradesh’s Rinku Singh.
Winning the toss, Uttar Pradesh elected to field first. Delhi posted a formidable 233/3 in their 20 overs, thanks largely to Arya’s explosive 102 (10 sixes, 5 fours off 43 balls). Himmat Singh also contributed a significant unbeaten 77 (6 sixes, 4 fours off 34 balls). Yash Dhull scored 6 and captain Ayush Badoni added 26. Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Nitish Rana took a wicket each for UP.
Chasing 234, Uttar Pradesh suffered an early collapse, losing three wickets for 34 runs. Nitish Rana (61 off 42 balls) and Rinku Singh (70 off 38 balls; 4 sixes, 8 fours) staged a fightback, but their efforts were insufficient. Ishant Sharma, Simarjeet Singh, and Prince Yadav each claimed two wickets for Delhi, restricting UP to 186/8.
