Rajasthan Royals have found their rhythm again after a rocky start to IPL 2025. Following back-to-back losses, Sanju Samson’s side has bounced back with two consecutive wins — first against Chennai Super Kings in a nail-biting finish at Guwahati and then with a dominant performance against Punjab Kings away from home. With four points on the board, the Royals will now aim to carry forward the momentum and rise up the standings.
Leading from the front has been captain Sanju Samson, who played a crucial knock in the last game alongside Yashasvi Jaiswal. As RR prepare for their next big test against Gujarat Titans, Samson will also be chasing some impressive personal milestones.
1. 7500 Runs in T20s
Sanju Samson is just 19 runs away from reaching the 7500-run mark in T20 cricket. Since making his debut for Kerala in 2011, the stylish right-hander has become a dependable performer in the shortest format, representing India and playing for Delhi Daredevils and Rajasthan Royals in the IPL.
2. 100 Dismissals for RR
Samson is also closing in on 100 dismissals for Rajasthan Royals across IPL and CLT20 matches. With just four more dismissals needed, he’s set to join an elite club, highlighting his sharp reflexes and consistent performances as a wicketkeeper.
3. 100 IPL Dismissals
His overall IPL dismissal tally stands at 98. With two more to go, Samson will become only the 13th player in IPL history to complete 100 dismissals, showcasing his dual value as a batter and a reliable presence behind the stumps.
