Riding on Samson’s 45-ball 92, Rajasthan Royals posted a mammoth 217 for 4 on a batting belter pitch and then managed to restrict the home team to 198 for 6, earning their second victory in three games. RCB, on the other hand, slumped to their second defeat in three games despite skipper Virat Kohli (57 off 30 balls)’s first half-century of this edition.

With a high power batting, Sanju claimed the second spot behind  Andre Russel for most sixes in a match. On the special day of Vishu celebration in Kerala, Saju’s innings was so delightful to watch.
