Rajasthan Royals captain Sanju Samson has been very worried about his fitness. He was out due to injury in the last several matches, taking command of the Ryan Parag team in his place. Sanju was not able to captain even in 4 matches of the beginning due to injury, he was just going to the field to bat. Now when the tournament is starting once again, Sanju Samson is seen fit.

Many foreign players who have returned home have come back to India and joined their team and many players are yet to come. Many players are not returning due to international commitments. Almost all Indian players have joined their franchises so far.
Captain Sanju Samson joined the Rajasthan Royals Camp on Tuesday night, shared by Rajasthan Royals. In which the franchise showed him like a king. Sanju’s attitude was also like this in this video, as if he was giving challenges to the opposing team. In the video, he is showing biceps. It is possible that by doing this, he wants to tell that he is now fully fit, but it can also be for Punjab Kings.

Rajasthan Royals can spoil the game of Punjab Kings
Rajasthan Royals became the second team to be out of the playoffs. Earlier, Chennai Super Kings and Sunrisers Hyderabad have been out of the race after them. Rajasthan has won only 3 out of 12 matches while 9 matches have been lost. The fate of the team has been very bad this time, the team has lost many matches very closely. Now the team has 2 matches left, one with Punjab Kings and the other with Chennai Super Kings.
Rajasthan Royals, which is out of the playoff race itself, can make it difficult for them by defeating Punjab Kings. Punjab has won 7 out of 11 matches, with 15 points at number three in the table. If she loses to Rajasthan Royals, it will be difficult in front of her, because after this, Shreyas Iyer & Team have two matches with Delhi Capitals and Mumbai Indians. Both these teams are involved in the playoff race and have seen strong in the season.
Rajasthan Royals vs Punjab Kings Match (RR vs PBKS IPL 2025) will be played on 18 April at Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur. The match will start at 3:30 in the afternoon, the toss will take place at 3 pm.
