PUNE, India, CMC – Marlon Samuels’s Indian Premier League misery continued yesterday when he failed again with both and bat and ball for Pune Warriors, in an 18-run loss to Deccan Chargers.
The West Indies all-rounder took one for 39 from four overs of off-spin as Deccan Chargers, opting to bat first, tallied 177 for four at the Subrata Roy Sahara Stadium.
Cameron White top-scored with 78 from 46 balls.
In their turn at the crease, Pune were held to 159 for seven, with Samuels scoring just three.
The right-hander has scores of four, 46, two, eight, 34 and 26 so far in the lucrative tournament.
