Rajasthan Royals (RR) has announced that Sanju Samson will return as captain and wicketkeeper for the next match against the Punjab Kings. The return of Samson is a major boost to RR, who have been suffering from inconsistency in their performances. His leadership and batting ability are expected to settle the team's lineup.
Samson's injury absence had seen a one-off captaincy stint by some other player, but with his return, RR would hope to gain momentum in the tournament. The match against Punjab Kings will be critical for RR to climb the table and stay in contention for the playoffs.
The squad is counting on Samson's experience and ability to reverse their fortunes. The fans are waiting for his comeback eagerly, hoping it will usher in a winning streak for RR.
