Dhull had been picked up by Delhi Capitals in the IPL 2022 mega auction for a sum of Rs 50 lakh, though he would end up not getting a single game throughout the season as the Capitals finished fifth, narrowly missing out on a Playoffs spot.
The right-handed batter, who got his domestic career off to a flying start by scoring a century in both innings for Delhi on Ranji Trophy and was later named captain of the side, came in to bat after Manish Pandey was dismissed.
The 20-year-old, however, did not last long at the crease as he was caught at deep square leg off Riley Meredith’s bowling, with Nehal Wadhera pulling off a fine catch in the deep.
Delhi would continue to lose wickets in a cluster, with Rovman Powell getting trapped by Piyush Chawla soon after for 4. Chawla would later clean Lalit Yadav up to grab his third wicket, with Delhi losing half their side for just 98 runs.
