Dhull, who did not have the best of times opening the batting, made 112 off 167 balls batting at number three to end the season on a high. The inconsequential Ranji game is heading towards a drab draw.
In the middle-order, Jonty (105 not out off 218) got the big runs and ensure Delhi got the first innings lead. Debutant Gagan Vats made 66 at the top of the order while Kshitiz Sharma struck 64 while batting alongside Jonty.
Both Delhi and Odisha have not progressed to the knockout stage of the competition.
Delhi's two wins of the season came against Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand, helping them avoid relegation after a poor start to their campaign.
