    "editor1": "<p>Rajasthan Royals (RR) captain Steve Smith said that the team&#39;s inability to get off to a good start in their innings has hurt them in recent games. RR succumbed to a third consecutive defeat on Tuesday when they lost to Mumbai Indians by 57 runs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;I think losing wickets early doesn&#39;t help, we haven&#39;t been able to get off to a good start in the last three games,&quot; said Smith after the match. &quot;Outside of Jos (Buttler) and (Jofra) Archer at the end, we have a bit of work to do on our batting.&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Smith, however, said that the current run of form is no reason to panic. &quot;I don&#39;t think we need to panic too much, it is just about implementing our plans and playing some good cricket for longer. We haven&#39;t been able to do that in the last three games and we have to turn it around quickly. Hopefully, get a bit of momentum,&quot; he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The 2008 champions are awaiting the return of star all-rounder Ben Stokes, who is undergoing the mandatory quarantine after arriving in the UAE recently.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;He (Stokes) is not out till the 10th I think. He is not too far away, hopefully, we can get a few wins before he&#39;s back and then gain momentum,&quot; said Smith.<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n",
