The IPL action goes up north from the Wankhede Stadium to the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur as the Rajasthan Royals team gears up to face the challenge of Kolkata Knight Riders. Both the teams have won their last match and will be looking to continue the winning streak. The last match played in the Jaipur stadium was curtailed by rain eventually resulting in the victory of the home team.

Here are the five things to look forward to in the exciting encounter –

The Amazing form of Sanju Samson

The young wicketkeeper-batsman from Kerala is knocking hard on the doors of selection to the Indian team. Sanju Samson has been brilliant in the IPL and even boasts of a T20 century in the format. He has played one T20 for India but has not been a regular feature.

This season also he is putting up a strong case by showcasing his talent for the Rajasthan Royal. He scored 49 off 42 where all of his teammates struggled to score against SRH bowling. In the second match also he scored a valuable 37 from 22 balls. Against Bangalore, Samson was at his best with 92 runs off just 45 balls with 10 sixes in the innings.

KKR will have to have a plan against this batsman in the purple form else KKR’s purple flag may go down.
