The Rajasthan Royals and the Chennai Super Kings have announced their final team retentions ahead of the upcoming mini-auction. Rajasthan Royals released their captain, Sanju Samson, in the form of a trade.
The trade has been making headlines since the Rajasthan Royals finished in the no. 9 position in the IPL Points Table. RR owner Manoj Badale has now explained what led them to the release of the franchise skipper.
Badale mentioned that it was the match against the Kolkata Knight Riders towards the end of the last season. He revealed that the wicket-keeper decided to look for a change due to mental and physical turmoil at RR.
While there's been a sort of media narrative of Rajasthan Royals are in chaos - Manoj Badale
Sanju Samson has played for the Rajasthan Royals in two stints, first in 2013 for the Royals when he made his debut, and then moved to the Delhi Daredevils in 2016 and 2017. He returned to Royals camp in 2018 and has been flawless. He took over the captaincy in 2021 and led them to two knockouts and a final in 2022.
"While there's been a sort of media narrative of Rajasthan Royals are in chaos, people leaving, Rahul leaving, the reality is that's not how it's felt internally. Internally, we committed to a process and a timeline. We're maybe one week later than we hope to be, or maybe two weeks later, but it all feels very calm here," said Badale.
