Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) are most likely to close a trade deal as Ravindra Jadeja will be joining RR and Sanju Samson will be a part of CSK in the upcoming IPL 2026 season. But now the biggest question that has arisen is – who’ll be leading CSK and RR? According to a report by News18 CricketNext, Ravindra Jadeja has made a special request to the Rajasthan Royals management that if he joins then he wants to lead the team.

But in Chennai Super Kings, the report indicates that Sanju Samson will not be appointed as the captain immediately. The Chennai Super Kings is closely tied to MS Dhoni, who will most likely to play IPL 2026. For now, Ruturaj Gaikwad will continue to lead the franchise and Samson might be viewed as a potential long-term successor.
