In the last three seasons, CSK, one of the most successful franchises in the league with 5 titles, failed to reach the play-offs. In the previous season, with Ruturaj leading the team throughout the season, the team ended their journey as the eighth team in the 10-team points table.
Sanju Samson was impressive in the first season with the Chennai Super Kings, scoring 477 runs at an average of 43.36 and a strike rate of 165.62 in 14 outings. The 31-year-old's IPL 2027 batting stats are supported by a couple of centuries and one half-century.
Sadagoppan Ramesh asks CSK to appoint Sanju Samson as captain
"CSK are seemingly thinking of many options as captain and even wondering if a captaincy change is needed. Sanju Samson should be considered as captain because he's such a fantastic team player. The CSK captaincy must be changed, and if it is, CSK must seriously consider Sanju Samson," said Sadagoppan Ramesh in his YouTube video.

In the video, Ramesh also noted that Chennai Super Kings need to shuffle a lot inside their team to regain their good old days. One of the main tasks the franchise will have to do is to appoint a head coach, in place of Stephen Fleming. Ahead of the IPL 2027, the franchise made a golden handshake with their long aid Fleming. A few other changes in the squad are also expected.
"Samson has also captained 66 matches in the IPL and won 33. So he has a 50% success rate. Under him, RR performed well by reaching a final and making another playoff appearance. Of course, several other things to change, and just making Sanju the captain won't win them the trophy. But if at all they change captains, Sanju must be strongly considered," the former cricketer added.
