Sanju Samson set to join CSK? Cryptic instagram post ignites speculations

Sanju Samson's latest Instagram post sparked speculations among cricket fans. His followers and netizens have started to speculate that Sanju may be on the verge of leaving Rajasthan Royals (RR) to join Chennai Super Kings (CSK).

The star cricketer shared a post with his wife, and in the caption, he wrote, "Time to move...!!" Along with the caption, netizens noticed a couple of other things too in the post: a yellow line and the background music Sanju used in the post. The Instagram post took very little time to be noticed by the followers of the wicket-batter and followed by the other cricket fans.

In the IPL 2025, Sanju was the regular captain of Rajasthan Royals, but due to an injury crisis, he had to remain out of the field for multiple games, which caused Riyan Parag to lead the side as the stopgap skipper. Despite repeated injury problems, the 30-year-old had a decent outing in IPL 2025. Now the question is, can Chennai Super Kings rope in Samson?

As a free player, the right-handed batter can join any other IPL club before the upcoming season. But to get any particular conclusion on the matter, fans have to wait. Sanju spent most of his Indian Premier League career with Rajasthan Royals.
