The IPL 2025 season may see significant changes, with several big players reportedly set to switch teams. The latest news suggests that wicketkeeper-batsman Sanju Samson could be seen playing for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the upcoming season.
According to reports, CSK has long been interested in acquiring Samson. The team is likely to pursue this move through a trade.
In exchange, Rajasthan Royals are said to have requested Shivam Dube from CSK. Rajasthan reportedly does not want to make a deal involving only money and has specifically asked for Dube in return for Samson. It will be interesting to see if this deal goes through between CSK and Rajasthan.
It’s important to note that all the current news about IPL 2025, including player releases and trades, is based on media reports and sources. No official statements have been made by any franchise, player, or the IPL itself.
Before IPL 2025, there will be a mega auction. Previously, teams were allowed to retain only four players, but now there are reports suggesting that teams may retain up to six players. However, the IPL Governing Council or BCCI has not yet issued any official statements regarding this change.
