Highest individual scores as a skipper for Rajasthan Royals:

86 - Sanju Samson vs DC, Delhi, TONIGHT

82* - Sanju Samson vs LSG, Jaipur, 2024
Kuldeep Yadav (Player of the Match): "It's very important to bowl at good length. That's the challenge to bowl at the death overs.

I knew him and pushed it through and got him out and bowled at the right areas. The wrong-uns were gripping and some flatter deliveries. Quicker deliveries what the batter was doing.

Just stuck to the basics and right lines and lengths is the key. Not thinking too much. We have seen the scores being high.

The pressure is on the bowler and you have to be ready to take wickets.

Got to be smart and back your strengths and know what you want to do. Keep believing yourself as always. Thank You."    
PLAYER OF THE MATCH: KULDEEP YADAV
Rishabh Pant (Delhi Capitals Captain): "I think, especially in the backend the way pacers executed yorkers is a positive. The way our pacers are going as the tournament is progressing is nice to see."

"We try to learn from each and every match. Whether we win or lose, that is the thought process."

"It was the plan to take a chance by bowling Kuldeep in the 17th over. We thought Powell will struggle against him and he delivered."

"With the impact player, we wanted to see how the game is going and delay the decision for as long as possible. We don't want to take the Impact Sub too quickly."

At this venue in this IPL, all four matches have been won by teams batting first. 
Mukesh Kumar (DC): "Nothing much. Two dot balls were needed and that was it. But I was thinking of taking wickets.

"I like to back my strengths and the wicket that was there allowed variations.

"Kuldeep Yadav's 17th over that he bowled was the turning point.

"210 was a par score and we got 221. Yes, good win and we have a good chance to qualify for the playoffs."  
Sanju Samson (RR Captain): "Yes, I think we had it in our hands. 12 runs per over on this pitch was achievable but these things happen in IPL."

"220 was a bit 10 runs extra I feel. The DC opener did what he has been doing this season. Ash bhai got him out and then we kind of pulled things back but gave a bit too much at the death."

"We have lost three games, all of those have been really close. We have to keep doing fine tuning. This tournament barely gives time to relax."

"Stubbs has been batting well, he knows these conditions pretty well. He targeted my best bowlers, Yuzi Chahal and Sandeep Sharma and those extra 20-30 runs proved decisive in the end."
