Samson's unbeaten 92 off 45 balls, RR register a convincing 19-run victory, two in a row, over RCB to keep their IPL 11 campaign on track. For RCB, skipper Kohli scores 30-ball 57 but his knock goes in vain. RR spinner Gopal, who delivers a dream spell of 2/22, dents RCB's chase of 218 by removing Kohli and de Villiers in the
middle overs.
Samson plays one hell of a knock as he powers RR to a huge total of 217 against RCB. Samson, who clobbers 10 big sixes, puts on three 40-plus partnerships with Short, Stokes and Tripathi to post the biggest total of the IPL 11 so far. For RCB, Yadav concedes 59 runs without picking up a wicket.
