Reports of Samson seeking a release from RR started doing the rounds since the end of IPL 2025. While there were multiple instances when the trade talks between CSK and RR were stalled, it picked up momentum over the last two weeks. Both franchises had raised an Expression of Interest (EOI) after obtaining consent from Samson, Jadeja and Curran. The deal was made official on Saturday after the BCCI gave its nod.
Samson made his IPL debut with RR way back in 2013. He then moved to DC briefly in 2016 and 2017 before returning to RR in 2018.
