Rajasthan Royals (RR) skipper Sanju Samson admitted that the side was not able to carry forward the momentum after opening batsmen had given the team a good start against RCB on Wednesday.
<a href="https://www.mid-day.com/search/rajasthan+royals-all" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Rajasthan Royals</a> were 100 for 1 at one stage before Royal Challengers Bangalore bowlers stole the show to script a comeback.
"We got a great start, but couldn't capitalise. Middle-order needs some confidence. We went in with intent, the wicket was two-paced and our batters kept mistiming it," said Samson during the post-match presentation
"To be honest, it's been a hard one week for us, we need to put in a fight as a franchise. Happy with the effort and intent with the bowling. We don't have anything to lose," he added.
"That kind of mindset brings a lot of freedom, have seen some funny things happen. Need to keep on believing and fighting till the last match," Samson stressed.
<a href="https://www.mid-day.com/search/glenn+maxwell-all" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Glenn Maxwell</a> hit a fifty while Srikar Bharat scored 44 as RCB defeated Rajasthan Royals by seven wickets.
RCB restricted Rajasthan Royals to 149/9 and then chased down the target with 17 balls left after Maxwell (50*) and Bharat (44) show. With this win, RCB now has 14 points in 11 games.&nbsp;
