#5 Samson-Stokes partnership

Ad

Rajasthan got off to a sedate start, scoring just 43 runs off the powerplay overs and losing their openers in the process. This brought the duo of Sanju Samson and Ben Stokes to the crease.

Both took their time in the beginning, taking ones and twos to get the scoreboard ticking. Once set, both of them decided to launch into the Mumbai attack. Stokes showed a glimpse of what all he can do by smashing the kiwi McClenaghan for a six and a four.

Their 72-run partnership stabilized Rajasthan’s innings and provided the perfect platform for the big hitters to launch.
