Big picture: RR's last chance to not finish lastIf not for the rearranged final leg of IPL 2025, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) would have been hosting Rajasthan Royals (RR) in Chennai on Tuesday.

And now, as it turns out, his first game in IPL 2025 is against GT at the Narendra Modi Stadium.

Sanju Samson, who underwent finger surgery last month, has joined the Rajasthan Royals (RR) squad on Monday, ESPNcricinfo has learned. Samson was undergoing rehab at the Centre of Excellence in Bengaluru and it could not be confirmed if he will keep wicket straightaway. Dhruv Jurel could be an option to keep if Samson isn't fit. Jurel had also kept wicket in place of Samson in the fifth T20I against England in February after he was hit on the finger by a Jofra Archer delivery while batting.

I'm seeing Ayush Mhatre bat for the first time, but that technique, lack of foot movement, and the backlift, all belong to Prithvi Shaw already. #CSKvSRH
