'He Had Become The Face Of RR’: Faf Calls Samson's Move To CSK Massive Thing For IPL
Former Royal Challengers Bengaluru: Former Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) Faf du Plessis reflected on the impact of Sanju Samson’s departure, describing the India wicketkeeper-batsman as the face of the franchise for the last decade, and believes that RR losing Samson is ‘a massive thing’ for the fans and the tournament.
Samson was traded in from RR to Chennai Super Kings (CSK) ahead of the auction in a major move as the five-time champions traded out Ravindra Jadeja and Sam Curran to Rajasthan. The two sides will now face off in their respective campaign openers on March 30 at the Barsapara Stadium in Guwahati.
"If I look at the IPL and the teams, the iconic teams we see around the league, all of them have one marquee Indian player in common, someone who has been the face of the franchise for a period of time, Rohit Sharma, MS Dhoni, Virat Kohli. And Sanju Samson, for me, was that guy at Rajasthan Royals. Yes, he's of a newer generation, but he had become the face of that franchise. If I think of Rajasthan Royals, I think Sanju Samson. So, the fact that they've lost that face, I think, is a massive thing for the fans, for the IPL, and for the tournament, because he's played such a big role there,” du Plessis told JioStar.
