MS Dhoni catch vs Rajasthan Royals: Twitterati slam Sanju Samson after another single-digit score vs CSK

MS Dhoni catch vs Rajasthan Royals: The captain of Chennai Super Kings grabbed an outstanding catch to dismiss Sanju Samson.

During the 37th match of the ongoing 13th season of the Indian Premier League between Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals in Chennai, Chennai Super Kings captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni grabbed an outstanding catch to dismiss Rajasthan Royals wicket-keeper batsman Sanju Samson.

It all happened on the third delivery of the fifth over when Samson edged a Deepak Chahar delivery down the leg-side which was brilliantly taken by Dhoni who moved to his left to catch the ball one-handed.

Coming in to bat at No. 3 in the fourth over, Samson departed after scoring 0 (2). Having started the tournament with consecutive half-centuries, the right-hand batsman has failed to remain consistent in IPL 2020.

Chahar, who had earlier dismissed Royals opening batsman Ben Stokes (19), picked his second wicket in the form of Samson. With Josh Hazlewood also dismissing Robin Uthappa (4), Super Kings’ bowlers did exceedingly well to restrict the opposition to 31/3 inside the powerplay while defending a 126-run target.

After Dhoni won the toss and chose to bat, Super Kings scored 125/5 in 20 overs in an innings which never received any momentum. All-rounder Ravindra Jadeja, who came in to bat at No. 6 in the 11th over, top-scored for his team with his 35* (30) with the help of four fours.

As far as the bowlers from Rajasthan are concerned, Shreyas Gopal, Rahul Tewatia, Archer and Kartik Tyagi picked a wicket apiece.
