Delhi: Rajasthan Royals (RR) star wicketkeeper batsman Sanju Samson made a special achievement against the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 against the Delhi Capitals (DC). As soon as he landed in this match, he has left behind KL Rahul in the case of captaincy.
Samson did not captain the first three matches for Rajasthan at the beginning of this season. At that time, he was struggling with injury and was not in a position to do wicketkeeping. In such a situation, the command of the team was handed over to young player Ryan Parag. However, Rajasthan’s performance under Parag’s captaincy was nothing special.
Now that Sanju Samson made a comeback, he has achieved a big place in his captaincy career. Samson has captained 65 matches in the IPL so far, out of which he has won 32, while 31 matches have lost. On the other hand, KL Rahul captained 64 matches in the IPL, of which 31 won and 31 lost. In this way, Samson has now left behind Rahul in the captaincy figures.
Interestingly, KL Rahul is playing as a player this season, while the captaincy of Delhi Capitals is currently in the hands of Akshar Patel.
If you talk about IPL history, then captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who has won by captaining the most matches. Dhoni has captained 200 matches so far, out of which 100 have won. This is a big record, which no one else has yet.
Masan has captained only for Rajasthan Royals and now he is slowly moving towards inclusion in the list of most successful captains.
