Emotions were running high through Sanju Samson after Rajasthan Royals' comfortable seven-wicket victory over Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in Match 44 of IPL 2024 at Ekana Cricket Stadium. 

The RR skipper led by example, smashing an unbeaten 71-run knock off 33 deliveries, which included a match-winning six against Yash Thakur to finish things off inside the 19th over of RR's innings.

It was a low full toss by Thakur, which dipped on Sanju Samson's pads. The wicket-keeper batsman whipped it away nonchalantly for an effortless six over the fine leg. Moments after, he could not control himself from roaring like a hungry tiger, something which we don't often see from a calm and composed demeanour.

Along with Samson, Dhruv Jurel played an important knock of 52 not out to take RR home. The pair forged an unbeaten 121-run partnership for the fourth wicket, which helped the table toppers to go past the finishing line without the usage of their designated finishers, Shimron Hetmyer and Rovman Powell.

Notably, one more win for Rajasthan will guarantee Rajashtan's place in the playoffs.
