Sanju Samson Drops Epic 'That Guy' Comment After MS Dhoni Nearly Pulled Off Heroic Chase

Following the three-run win over Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in their Indian Premier League (IPL) match, Rajasthan Royals (RR) skipper Sanju Samson said that the final two overs during the run-chase were tense and a side is "never safe with MS Dhoni" as "nothing works against him". A nail-biting match came to a dramatic end with Sandeep Sharma barely managing to defend 21 runs in the final over as RR stood victorious over CSK by 3 runs at MA Chidambaram Stadium on Wednesday.

"You have to give credit to the boys. The bowlers kept their cool at the end and bowled really well, we also held on to our catches. I do not have good memories at Chepauk, never won here and wanted to win today. The ball was gripping and hence, we brought Zampa in as the impact player. We had a good powerplay with Rutu getting out and the thought was if we can get out of the powerplay without giving away too much then we have the spinners to do the job.

The last two overs were tense, I tried to push it deep but you are never safe with 'That Guy' (Dhoni). You have to have respect for that guy and for what he can do. Nothing works against him," said Samson during the post-match presentation.

With this win, RR is the table-toppers, winning three out of their four matches. They have a total of six points. CSK is in the fifth spot with two wins and two losses and a total of four points.
