Rajasthan Royals captain Sanju Samson is eyeing several franchises for IPL 2026. One of these is the five -time champion Chennai Super Kings Bha. The Chennai team is in full mood to connect Sanju with him. Sanju is the captain of Samson and under his captaincy the team played the final in 2022, the first final of the franchise after 2008.
Cricbuj has confirmed in its report that Chennai Super Kings want to bring Sanju into their team, however, no official discussion has been held in this matter from Rajasthan.
The report quoted the Chennai source as saying that we are definitely looking towards Sanju. He is an Indian batsman who can do wicketkeeping and opening. If they are available, we will surely consider connecting them with us. We have not yet discussed which player will be traded from our place because the matter has not gone so far but yes we are interested in Sanju.
For Chennai, this is a very wonderful work because which player he should trade. Sanju Rajasthan’s No.-1 Rit Khiladi Te, which means he was given Rs 18 crore. The potential and equal player in Chennai in his place is Rituraj Gaikwad. Team coach Stephen Fleming has already said that Gaikwad has been appointed as captain for a long time.
The IPL trading window is happy at this time. In such a situation, it has to be seen whether the Chennai team talks to Rajasthan for Sanju or not. Chennai can also get competition in this race. Because apart from Chennai, there are some other teams that want to connect Sanju with them. Rajasthan recently held its review meeting in London in which the team’s head coach Rahul Dravid was also present. In this meeting, the appeal of trade to different players from other teams was also discussed but Sanju’s name was not in it.
