His back was hurting, but that did not deter skipper Sanju Samson from carrying on to slam his second half-century of this IPL to help Rajasthan Royals post 152-5 in their 20 overs against Kolkata Knight Riders at the Wankhede Stadium on Monday.

Despite Samson’s 54 off 49 balls, RR didn’t have enough runs on the board and it required a late push from Shimron Hetmyer (13-ball 27 not out).
