In Samson's absence, Ryan is leading the Parag team, while Dhruv Jurlel has captured the wicket-keeping responsibilities. Kerala cricketer, playing completely as a batsman, registered a half -century (66) against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) due to losing on Sunday, 23 March. In the team's second match against KKR, Samson scored only 13 runs. In the latest match against CSK, although she started well, she could not go beyond the 20 -run mark.
Following an unstable start for his campaign with two consecutive defeats, RR won its first win of the season against CSK in Guwahati.
“It took a long time, just two games, but really felt for a long time. We still think that we were 20. We lost a pair of wickets quickly (in middle overs). But we really bowled well. We have two difficult games, but chat was to forget those games, come with a new mentality and a good game is collectively.”
RR is set to face Punjab Kings (PBK) in Mulanpur on Saturday, 5 April on Saturday, 5 April.
