"It was a bit of roller-coaster"- RR captain Sanju Samson after victory vs DC in IPL 2024 clash
After the conclusion of the match, Rajasthan Royals skipper Sanju Samson reflected on the win and said:
"It was a bit of roller-coaster, the way we started first 10 overs, we were like, 'okay Rovman, get ready you might have to bat today', and then the way the partnership built, and the way the players took that opportunity to come and show was really fantastic.
"The game is changing, the IPL is changing, we have to be flexible around it. It was around 11 players before, now it's about 15 players, being ready, on the toes."
Samson added:
"Myself and Sanga had atleast 4-5 chats around the 13-17 over mark. Finally after the 17, we decided one extra bowler might be handy. What Riyan Parag did in the final over -24 or 25 off it - made it much easier.
"Each and every day is different for each player, it's based on what zone they are in, at times they are calm, composed and confident, you have to look at those and take decisions. I saw Sandy was calm and confident, and so was Avesh."
RCB and KKR will lock horns in the next match of IPL 2024 on Friday (March 29) in Bengaluru.
