Meanwhile, Ravichandran Ashwin and Sanju Samson both played together for Rajasthan Royals until IPL 2024. Ashwin made a high-profile return to Chennai Super Kings in the IPL 2025 auction for INR 9.75 crore. However, this time, the spin legend’s role went far beyond bowling, as he also worked as the Director of Operations at the CSK Academy.
But fresh reports suggest he might soon leave that post. On the other hand, Samson has been a key part of the Royals' setup for years, except for the 2016 and 2017 seasons.
