    IPL 2024: Pitch Did Not Slow Down As We Expected, Says Sanju Samson After Defeat To CSK

    Chennai Super Kings: Rajasthan Royals captain Sanju Samson said they fell 20-24 runs short of the score they had expected to score against Chennai Super Kings in Match 61 of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 and said their opponents had a better idea of how to deal things at home. Samson said the pitch had lower bounce than they had expected, and his team tried its best to cope with the conditions.

    Chennai Super Kings beat the Rajasthan Royals by five wickets, moving within inches of qualifying for the Playoffs with just one game remaining. After a superb bowling performance that restricted Rajasthan Royals to 141/5 in 20 overs, Ruturaj Gaikwad played a true captain's inning, scoring 42 runs not out as the young opener stood like a rock in front of the potent bowling attack scoring and powering his team to a comfortable victory.

    Although Gaikwad played as the anchor, it was the explosiveness of Rachin Ravindra, Daryl Mitchell and Shivam Dube that got CSK over the line comfortably, Solid batting combined with fine bowling efforts by pacers Simarjeet Singh and Tushar Deshpande helped CSK put and apply continuous pressure throughout the game and secure an important victory.
