The second round of the DP World India Championship in New Dehli was suspended because of fading light, leaving several players with unfinished rounds. Joost Luiten, Angel Hidalgo and Adrian Meronk completed their rounds and share the lead on eight under par, while Belgium's Thomas Detry is also tied at the top despite having his round cut short after seven holes.

England's Eddie Pepperell and Todd Clements are both one shot off the four-way tie for the lead after completing their 18 holes. Northern Ireland's Tom Mc Kibbin started the round one shot off the lead but had fallen to five under par after seven holes.

Six-time major winner Rory Mc Ilroy is tied for 17th on four under, but his challenge was halted after four holes. He started his second round with a superb eagle and had shot three pars before play ended. England's Tommy Fleetwood and Scotland's Robert Mac Intyre were also stopped after the fourth hole and sit four shots off the leaders.

The delays follow heavy rain and thunderstorms that suspended play for five hours during Thursday's opening round. The second round will resume at 02:45 BST on Saturday.
