That’s why it’s disappointing when we lose. The wicket was behaving really well in the last 3-4 overs, so we knew it’d be much better in the second innings.”Our openers have been giving us good starts and almost finished off the game in the powerplay. They were going for the kill,” Samson said after the match.Jaiswal and Dube’s half-centuries completely overshadowed Ruturaj Gaikwad’s hundred in the first innings. The CSK opener hit his maiden T20 century to help the team post 189 for 4, the highest first-innings score in the UAE leg of IPL 2021, but even that wasn’t enough to stop the RR power-hitters.”Very happy for young Jaiswal, he’s played really well throughout the tournament, we are very sure he’ll make it big. (Secret behind Jaiswal’s power) He keeps on eating (laughs).”We have been discussing about Dube from the last 2-3 games. We thought today might be his day. He has been working hard in the nets, very happy for him,” Samson added.The win helped Rajasthan Royals go level on 10 points with Kolkata Knight Riders (4th), Punjab Kings (5th) and Mumbai Indians.Click here for our site’s complete coverage of the coronavirus pandemic.
