This is Delhi's third win in four matches and the hosts are favourites to seal one of the two quarter-final spots up for grabs from this group.

The bowlers led by left-arm pacer Pawan Suyal (3-14) and Navdeep Saini (2-28) skittled out Tripura for 100 in 39.3 overs with former UP batsman Parvinder Singh top-scoring with 20.

In reply, Delhi romped home in 16 overs losing only two wickets. Young Nitish Rana slammed 48-ball-67.

Gautam Gambhir-led Delhi are second behind Maharashtra in the table, with 12 points.
