Watch: 'Sanju Samson haye haye' chants erupt in Jaipur as RCB fans attack RR captain

Rajasthan Royals skipper Sanju Samson has been having a decent time in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. The keeper-batter has been leading the team well and also has been batting well in the league, making sure he leads from the front.

Samson played the first three games as an impact player because of his finger injury. The keeper-batter also didn't lead the team in those games, and in his absence, Riyan Parag was at the helm of things. He, however, didn't have a good time as, under him, the team struggled.

After the three games, Samson finally returned as a fully fit batter against the Punjab Kings. He made an instant impact as under him, Rajasthan Royals won the game and he also led from the front, scoring 38 runs off 26 balls.
