It was Rajasthan though who got off to a good start as their top three had laid the foundation for a score of above 150. However, once Samson fell, it was a procession. They kept losing wickets one after the other and just could not recover. A few of their batters got off to starts but none went on to make it big and that is what cost them. Rajasthan have ended with a score well below par.
