Sanju Samson: Team India's wicketkeeper batsman Sanju Samson plays for Rajasthan Royals in the IPL. However, he has also been captaining the team for the last several seasons and during this time he has also led his team to the finals once.

In such a situation, the team has not been able to perform well for the last few years and due to this Rajasthan can release Sanju. If this happens, Chennai Super Kings has their eyes on him and they can include Sanju in their team and can also make him the captain.

CSK's disappointing performance under the captaincy of Rituraj Gaikwad

Actually, just before the last season, MS Dhoni left the captaincy of Chennai and young opener Rituraj Gaikwad was appointed the new captain. However, under his captaincy, the team could not even make it to the playoffs.

In such a situation, Chennai can change its captain before IPL 2025 and Sanju Samson is a strong candidate for this. Gaikwad may have been a hit with the bat during IPL 2024 but he was a flop in captaincy.

Sanju Samson can be made the captain

Samson (Sanju Samson) is captaining Rajasthan in the IPL and if he joins any other team, he would definitely want to captain. If he joins Chennai, Gaikwad can be removed and this responsibility can be handed over to Sanju.

Let us tell you that this is not the first time that news has come about Sanju joining Chennai, but such news has come before as well. However, at that time, due to some reasons, he could not join Chennai but this time he can join the team.

Rajasthan can ask for this player in exchange for Sanju Samson

If we talk about Rajasthan, then they would not want to include Rituraj Gaikwad in their team in place of Samson at all because they have excellent top order batsmen in the form of Yashasvi Jaiswal and Jos Buttler.

In such a situation, they would not want to include another top order player in their team. In exchange for Samson, the Royals team can trade with star all-rounder Shivam Dubey as he has been a part of the RR team before.
