WATCH: Sixes don't go much higher than Martin Guptill's elegant monster off Ishant Sharma

Both Sunrisers Hyderabad and Delhi Capitals will be looking to get the better of each other in the Eliminator at ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium on Wednesday. Just like other games, even this game had its fair share of standout moments. In fact, it all happened even before the game had started when Delhi skipper Shreyas Iyer flipped the coin even before Sanjay Manjrekar had introduced both the captains and the match referee which created a lot of laughter in the middle and was also enjoyed by the netizens. The drama continued when the match started and Trent Boult bowled the first over. The New Zealand speedster had trapped SRH' s opening batsman, Wriddhiman Saha off the very first delivery. However, the veteran wicket-keeper batsman had a discussion with his opening partner Martin Guptill and he decided to take a review where the replays showed that Saha had got a big inside edge and the decision was turned in his favour. 

Once the drama was over, it was time for some action on the field and Martin Guptill decided to entertain the viewers with some serious power-hitting. His big moment came in the second over which was bowled by Ishant Sharma. In the fifth delivery, Ishant bowled a length ball and the explosive New Zealand batsman hit him into the stands. Guptill had timed the ball so beautifully that it landed on the top tier of the Vizag ground as the crowd erupted in joy while DC skipper Shreyas Iyer looked up in disbelief.  

Hilarious: 'That doesn't count right?,' asks Sanjay Manjrekar after DC skipper Shreyas Iyer did something strange during the toss against SRH

The video of this humungous six was posted on Twitter. Take a look.

Delhi Capitals won the toss and elected to ball first. All the SRH batsmen including skipper Kane Williamson got good starts but could not convert them into big scores as Delhi bowlers picked up wickets at regular intervals which restricted the 'Orange Army' to 162/8 in their 20 overs.
