Sanju Samson 74(32)
11.4
Ngidi to Samson, out Caught by Chahar!! That is the end of the Samson show - he's furious with himself as he walks back. Would have been a wide had he let it go - but the adrenaline was pumping and he couldn't hold back - went chasing after that and lifted it towards deep cover - Chahar ran in, took it awkwardly around his chest, reverse cupped - it threatened to pop out, but he manages to clutch it safely. Was the slower short ball and Samson didn't have the pace on the shot. Some relief for the CSKians, they clearly looked rattled. Samson c Chahar b Ngidi 74(32) [4s-1 6s-9]
11.2
Ngidi to Samson, 1 run, on a good length and just outside off, Samson plays with soft hands and dabs it to RJ at backward point - Smith was backing up and he has an unncessary shy at the bowler's end - ends up conceding a run

Jadeja to Samson, no run, pushed through flatter and quicker, left alone
9.4
Chawla to Samson, 1 run, quicker and around off, Samson eases it towards cover
9.3
Chawla to Samson, SIX, this is bad bowling now. He is just feeding it in his slot. Flighted and lands it on a fullish length, right where Samson likes it, he lofts through the line and clearing the fence has not been difficult for him, well over long-off
8.5
Jadeja to Samson, 1 run, bit more air and Samson goes for an agricultural heave, drags it off the inner half to deep mid-wicket

Chawla to Samson, no ball, 1 run, fraction short and outside off, Samson crunches it straight to sweeper cover. Oh no! Chawla has overstepped
7.5
Chawla to Samson, SIX, "looks like he is having a net," quips Gavaskar on air. He is treating them that away and has even impressed his skipper at the other end. Flighted and lands full, Samson clears his front leg and goes straight, that high backlift allows him to have a clean swing and it goes over the roof
7.3
Chawla to Samson, 1 run, fifty off 19 balls. Samson has turned it around for the Royals. Just a bat raise and is congratulated by his skipper. Quicker delivery outside off, Samson cracks it to sweeper cover
7.2
Chawla to Samson, SIX, this is now officially a carnage. Chawla goes wide of off-stump and Samson was happy with that line, good stride forward and lofts it with the spin over extra cover. Another one out in the car park
7.1
Chawla to Samson, SIX, woah! Samson is on fire. First ball from Chawla and he launches him straight down the ground. This was right in the slot though but still had to be put away, Dhoni has a word with Chawla
6.5
Jadeja to Samson, 1 run, flatter and around off, Samson opens the bat face to maneuver it past cover
6.4
Jadeja to Samson, no run, attacks the stumps and Samson defends it to cover
6.3
Jadeja to Samson, SIX, Jadeja put under pressure straightaway. Samson does not want him to settle. This is touch wide of off-stump and he goes with the spin, nice clean bat swing to take it over long-off. Might have gone out of the ground
6.2
Jadeja to Samson, SIX, he's dealing in sixes at the moment, third for him. Drifting in from the round the wicket angle, Samson swings through the line and smokes it all the way over wide long-on
5.4
Chahar to Samson, 1 run, tries to put the bowler off by moving around in the crease, Chahar keeps it simple by taking the pace off the ball, worked towards mid-wicket
5.3
Chahar to Samson, SIX, wow! That is some shot. He looks so elegant when on song. Picked the short of length delivery early, stayed on the front foot while transferring his weight back, pulls it handsomely over deep square leg and cleared the field comfortably
5.1

Sam Curran to Samson, SIX, cracking shot! That's more like it. Short of length around the hips, Samson gets into a good position this time and smashes the pull into the deep mid-wicket stands
4.3
Sam Curran to Samson, FOUR, not sure he intended it to go that fine. Short of length with a bit of extra bounce, Samson steers it and the outside edge runs away fine - bisecting Dhoni and short third man
4.2
Sam Curran to Samson, no run, makes room to target the off-side and Curran spotted that, angled it outside off and got it to skid across the surface, Samson flashes and misses
3.6
Ngidi to Samson, 2 runs, in the air and safe. Short ball around chest height, Samson is not in a great position to play the pull, ends up splicing it over mid-on and luckily for him it lands well away from the chasing Curran
