Rajasthan Royals (RR) skipper Sanju Samson is unhappy with team management over some of the decisions he made prior to the auction. A report published in Mykhel shows that the Keeper-Batter has raised serious questions about the team’s strategic direction.
The report argued that one of the main things Sanju Samson is unhappy with is to let go of Jos Buttler. The franchise didn’t hold the keeper batter, who was the flagship for the last few seasons. It’s safe to say that it was his fault for the franchise’s success in the past few years.
The decision not to hold Jos Butler did not sit well with San Ju Samson
The decision not to hold Jos Butler didn’t sit well with Samson. The England batsman has been part of the Gujarat Titan this year and he has done a great job for his team. It’s fair to say that Shubmann’s Gill-led is one of the reasons he’s at the top of the IPL 2025 points table.

Sanju Samsung also expressed his dissatisfaction with the retention of Trent Bourto in IPL 2025. The left arm pacer was exceptional and decent to the power play franchise.
Trent Bourto is currently part of the Mumbai Indian setup for IPL 2025. Pacer has a decent job on the Hardik Pandya-led side. The fast bowlers are proving their worth with both new and old balls, helping their teams win the game.
Sanju Samson occurred about lack of foreign signatures
Another thing that left Samson Fuming is the lack of foreign signatures. The report claims to introduce versatile players despite suggestions from within the team, including strong input from Jofra Archer.
The report also added that things are not correct between Sanju Samson and Rahul Dravid. Although there is no open conflict, the underlying tension between different philosophies may contribute to insecurity within the camp. This is all because the team has a bad time.
Rajasthan Royals are upset at the bottom half of the table
Rajasthan Royals are upset at the bottom half of the table. It’s safe to say they have one of their worst seasons in the league as they’ve struggled to get the bat and the ball. Sanju Samson-led side will be in 9th place on the points table. This is like the season they have.
The winner of IPL 2008 played in nine matches and won just two games in nine matches, facing seven losses. It now looks very dark to them to qualify for the playoffs. They need to win all five games remaining and will not guarantee a playoff location after that.
