"Shocking To See...": Sanju Samson's Admission Despite RR Beating PBKS To Stay In IPL Playoff Race

Following the four-wicket win over Punjab Kings (PBKS) in their Indian Premier League (IPL) match, Rajasthan Royals (RR) skipper Sanju Samson expressed disappointment with his team's campaign and said that it is shocking where they are on the table despite so much star power and good players that they have. With this win, RR is in the fifth spot in the points table with seven wins and seven losses. They have a total of 14 points.
