As the 2026 IPL season approaches, franchise strategies and trade discussions have intensified. The most talked about topic in cricket discussions is Rajasthan Royals captain Sanju Samson. According to the latest reports, the franchise has made a huge offer to Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in exchange for its star wicketkeeper-batsman.
CSK has its eyes on Samson
Chennai Super Kings are reportedly keen to add Sanju Samson to the squad ahead of the new season. The logic is simple—with MS Dhoni's IPL career nearing its end, CSK is looking for an experienced and reliable wicketkeeper-batsman who can strengthen the middle order. With his proven track record and leadership skills, Sanju Samson seems to be a perfect fit for the role.
High-profile demand of RR
CSK's interest has been in the news for the past few weeks, but the latest update has revealed the names on Rajasthan Royals' wish list.
According to a report in Cricbuzz, RR have demanded a massive comeback—captain Ruturaj Gaikwad, veteran all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja and power-hitter Shivam Dube. The Chennai camp has outright rejected this ambitious demand, as they consider these three players extremely important for their core team.

With the transfer window still open, both fans and analysts will be keeping a close eye on whether either of the parties will soften their stance or this high-profile deal will fall through altogether.
