RR vs LSG: Why Sanju Samson Is Not Playing Today’s IPL 2025 Match?
Sanju Samson misses today’s match against LSG due to an injury, with Riyan Parag leading Rajasthan Royals.
Match number 36 of the IPL 2025 season is being played between Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur.
However, Rajasthan Royals are without their regular captain Sanju Samson in this match. In his absence, young Riyan Parag is leading the team.
Sanju Samson missed this game due to an injury he picked up in the last match against Delhi Capitals. During that game, he got injured while batting and had to retire hurt mid-innings. He did not come back to bat after that.
Due to that injury, he is not fit enough to play today’s match against Lucknow. Rajasthan Royals have not announced how serious the injury is or how many matches he could miss.
With Sanju not available, Riyan Parag has been given the responsibility to lead the side.
Rajasthan Royals will hope that Sanju Samson recovers quickly and returns to the field soon. He has been one of their main batters and an important leader for the team.
