NEW DELHI: With just a few days to go before the retention deadline for the 2026 Indian Premier League (IPL), a lot is happening in the Rajasthan Royals (RR) camp as the franchise looks for a complete overhaul. The Royals have been one of the most active franchises in recent weeks. There has been a shake-up in the coaching staff, with former Sri Lanka captain Kumar Sangakkara returning to RR as head coach after the exit of Rahul Dravid. Sangakkara has also been RR's Director of Cricket since 2021. The franchise has also parted ways with CEO Jake Lush McCrum. As TimesofIndia.com reported on Sunday , the Royals’ current captain Sanju Samson is highly likely to be traded to the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in exchange for Ravindra Jadeja and Sam Curran or Matheesha Pathirana.
