Sanju got too many chances to reach 119 but I guess luck ran out towards the last two overs!
Richardson defo better than Meredith on the evening, which is why I thought Sanju going after Richardson (and with great success) had almost won it for RR.
If Samson had faced all 6 balls from Meredith's 19th, this would've been a comfortable RR win. Which is why that virtual Tewatia free hit at 22 off 13 was so frustrating in the scheme of things.
Meredith gave 8 runs in his 19th over- Samson only played 2 balls and scored 7 of the 8.
Morris and Tewatia played four Meredith balls between them and scored one run (plus Tewatia's wicket)
