Sanju Samson's future remains a huge talking point as the IPL 2026 Retention Deadline inches closer. Franchises are required to submit a list of their retained players by November 15. Samson, who has captain Rajasthan Royals since 2021, has requested for a move away, with CSK rumoured to be among the interested parties.

Samson has played for Rajasthan Royals in 11 seasons, leading them for the last four seasons. He struggled last season with injuries and the appointment of Rahul Dravid as head coach. Should Samson to CSK happen, he would likely to be viewed as a successor to MS Dhoni.
