To be honest, it’s been a hard one week for us, we need to put in a fight as a franchise,” Samson said after the match.RR still have an outside chance of making it to the knockouts if they win their remaining 3 games and then hope for some of the other teams’ results to go their way and Samson urged his team to “keep fighting till the last match”.”Happy with the effort and intent with the bowling. We don’t have anything to lose. That kind of mindset brings a lot of freedom, have seen some funny things happen.
