Sanju Samson fined with 12 lakh
On Wednesday,” the IPL stated in a release, the Rajasthan Royals have been fined for maintaining a slow overrate.”” The release added, “Captain Sanju Samson was fined Rs 12 lakh as it was the team’s first offence of the season under the IPL’s Code of Conduct relating to minimum over-rate offences.”
Since beating CSK for the first time in Chepauk since 2008 was far more satisfying, the fine would probably only serve as a warning to Samson. And they did it in style by preventing MS Dhoni from getting a six or a four off the final ball of the match, which allowed them to win by three runs.
Sanju on the performance by the Royals
Sandeep Sharma deserves a lot of credit for hitting two yorkers, one outside off stump to Jadeja and one to Dhoni, when CSK needed six runs from two balls. And he did that after Dhoni had muscled him into two sixes in the previous over.
“You have to give the boys credit. The bowlers maintained a calm demeanour towards the end and bowled all around well; we likewise clutched our gets. I don’t remember Chepauk well; I’ve never won here, and I wanted to win today. Zampa was brought in as the impact player because the ball was grabbing. “The thought was if we can get out of the powerplay without giving away too much, then we have the spinners to do the job,” Samson stated after the match. “We had a good powerplay with Rutu getting out.

RR at the top of the points table
With three wins in four games, the victory propelled RR to the top of the IPL 2023 points table. The best side on paper has up until this point gotten it done on the field as well. Samson, who got out for a two-ball duck, would expect to get back among runs, but besides, he would believe his group should go on with the triumphant energy.
