He faced 122 balls, hitting 11 fours and two sixes, as Delhi finished the day at 309 for 5.

The century came after Badoni scored 217 against Gujarat in the previous round, giving him two successive three-figure scores.

Delhi had slipped to 181 for 5 before Badoni and Sumit Mathur added an unbeaten 128 runs to steady the innings.
