That is it for Super Sunday! Another double-header night ends with a thrilling finish. Rajasthan Royals defeat Gujarat Titans for the first time in IPL and take two points with them. For now, this is me AkshayaKrishna Polya signing off on behalf of my co-commentators Arijit Kundu and Ninaad Dixit, who alongside our scorer/analyst Paras Yadav brought you all the live-action of this mouth-watering fixture. We will join for matches around the world. Until then, it's cheers!
Shimron Hetmyer (Player of the Match): "I don't know actually. Did really wanted to win against these guys as they beat us three times the last year. Wanted to get the revenge. I practice these kinds of situations actually when a couple of wickets go down and you had to get over 100 runs from 8 overs actually.
I was actually very happy, to be honest. He [on Noor Ahmad bowling the last over] bowled very well tonight. I was thinking if I could get a double in the first ball and then take it through; that was what I was thinking actually. Cheers! Thanks!!"

Sanju Samson (Rajasthan Royals Captain): "Yeah absolutely, you expect some kind of matches like this when you play a quality opponent. Very happy to compete and be on the winning side as well. Off course, it was very important to rotate the bowlers. They were going at the spinners and at times they were playing some quality cricketing shots and we need to respect that. At the same time, we need to understand the quality we have set for ourselves. It was good to restrict them to 177.
Yeah, absolutely, we needed to respect them the way they bowled at the start. But we knew that we couId play the shots later on. I think the way Zampa came in it was a great thing. We knew that Zampa was a good matchup against David Miller. We had already got him.
Absolutely, I don't think he (Hetmyer) likes easy situations. He likes these kinda difficult situations..."
