Can Sanju Samson open for RR in IPL 2023?

Rajasthan Royals has so many openers in their squad that they are often confused about whom to open the inning with. Jos Buttler is a set opener for Rajathan Royals in IPL, but the second spot for the opener has always been in scrutiny.

Yashasvi Jaiswal and Devdutt Padikkal have been tried as openers for RR in IPL 2022, but both of them could not replicate the them same success as Jos Buttler.
