Sanju Samson’s Rajasthan Royals did not do well in IPL 2025. Many of their issues happened because of their retention policy and their performance at the auctions. Here, we take a look at the list of three players the Rajasthan Royals could shockingly release.
Rahul Dravid and the management will have to take a few bold calls to get the team back on track. There is still a solid core for the franchise to work with.
1) Shimron Hetmyer
Shimron had one bad season after a long time. However, it was too poor a season. Shockingly, RR might want to release him because he is on a high salary. They could buy him back at a cheaper fee.
2) Sanju Samson is one of the players the Rajasthan Royals could shockingly release
Yes, you heard that right! There are now various rumours floating that Sanju might leave RR. He is the captain of the squad but it appears that some of the internal happenings might force this decision. Of course, RR must try to avoid this at any cost but in the current era, anything is possible.
3) Sandeep Sharma
While Sandeep Sharma has done well in patches, the consistency is not something RR would have liked. He was the only bowler retained by RR, and with his experience, Sandeep must be offering more to the franchise. If RR is looking at the future, they might have to take the bold move of releasing Sandeep.
