Sanju Samson, Rajasthan Royals Rift Rumor: Skipper gave a miss video to Rahul Dravid’s team.

Sanju Samson, the captain of Rajasthan Royals, is in the news. Star wicketkeeper-Better was recently hurt after scoring a Quick-Fire 31 off 19 balls during the IPL 2025 match against Delhi Capital on Wednesday. The match was won by Delhi Capital in the super over, both teams were tied after 20 overs after 188 overs. In the super over, RR left in-form Nitish Rana (who scored 51 off 28 balls) and instead sent Yashasvi Jaywal, Shimron Hetmyer and Ryan Parag.

Now, a video, posted by a social media user, is going viral, where the match footage depicts the RR Senior Team Management, including head coach Rahul Dravid, Sarej many, which is in a team Hardle before the super over. Samson can be seen in a single video, but he is not involved with anyone. Although this could be a case of RR captain’s stress or being immersed in his views, many social media users wondered if there was any rift in the team. In the team, a player can be seen saying something to Samson but he goes away.

I knew that there was definitely a crack within the setup when there was no discussion or chat in the dugout before the super over. Harvari stood in a circle in the dugout. In the first video, Sanju’s hand on the signal, he is deliberately ignoring everyone. https://t.co/dfxmlwgbg pic.twitter.com/688ji3mxrs

Is this the reason that their players never celebrate wickets, especially those hatmier on the border?

I believe the issues started from the auction table itself. I do not think Sanju was happy with the decision to let Butler go.

At least Sanju must have faced a word or two, saying that they show the gesture of one hand while walking.

There will be a hope for Nitish Rana for one of the batting options of Rajasthan Royals (RR) for the first super over of IPL 2025 against Delhi Capital at Arun Jaitley Stadium on Wednesday night.

But for everyone’s surprise, Rana was not sent despite scoring 51 off 28 balls, as RR preferred Shimron Hetmyer, Ryan Parag and then Yashsvi Jaiswal among the judges of one-over. This was a step that did not pay as RR scored only 11 runs off five balls, including a run-out off the last two balls.

At the conclusion of the dramatic game, Rana said that all the calls related to making on-field decisions are at the hands of the team management. “This is never the decision of a person. It is always management, and assistant employees, because they can discuss and decide on these things. I think if this result was in our favor, this question would be different. Therefore, this game of cricket is a result-oriented game.

“The management is the one who decides. There are two senior players and captains. I think the decision was correct. If Hetmyer had hit two sixes, you would not have asked the same question.

“Hetmyer is our finisher. Everyone knows it, and they have distributed in the past. There are many things that we could squeeze a little more, and should not have been a game bound by that one run. But this result is,” Rana said in the post -match press conference.
