Sanju Samson captained Rajasthan Royals quite well in IPL last year. He took the squad based in Jaipur into its only final since the inaugural money-making season. The Royals lost to the Gujarat Titans in the IPL 2022 final under his captaincy and finished as runners-up. This year, the team retained the majority of its core players from last year. They want to take it a level higher and win another IPL title after 15 years.
