Don't like games to go till end, especially when we are in tough situation: Samson after RR's win against GT

Ahmedabad (Gujarat) [India], April 17 : After contributing to the win of Rajasthan Royals against Gujarat Titans, skipper Sanju Samson said he did not want the game to go on till the end and he wanted to get his side back into the game with a big over after hitting his first six.

"After getting the first six, I wanted to make that a big over. I do not like to keep the game for the end especially when I know that we are in a tough situation. I did not want it to get worse," Samson said.
Hetmyer asked Samson about his approach towards his innings to which Samson replied that he was just watching the ball and with the merit of the ball was trying to hit.
"I was not thinking anything, I just watch the ball and if it is a short ball, I go for a cut and if it is a full-length ball then I go straight. I kept it really blank but with positive intent." Samson added.
Hetmyer also answered a few questions, he said that the pitch was good to bat on, and after they settled down, they looked to hit the balls.
"It was a lovely game actually, it was a really good pitch to bat on, in the beginning, we were slow and they bowled really well in the powerplay but then you (Samson) stood up for us. Thank you (laughs)," Hetmyer said
Samson asked Hetmyer a question asked by Sanjay Manjrekar that how they (Sanju and Hetmyer) always perform in tough situations.
Samson said, "I told him (Sanjay) that he (Hetmyer) loves the tough situations, we do not want him to face an easy situation."
