Liam Livingstone pulls out of IPL 2021 due to bubble fatigue

Rajasthan United FC step onto the pitch at the Vidhyadhar Nagar Stadium, eager to bounce back in front of their home supporters. The Jaipur-based outfit are looking to recover from a 1-3 away defeat to Aizawl FC in the last round.

Ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) season 2026, in one of the biggest trades in the tournament's history, Samson was traded from RR to CSK and will don the yellow colours at the price of Rs 18 crores. In turn, Sam Curran and seasoned all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja were traded to the inaugural champions. While Jadeja's price will go down from Rs 18 crores (at CSK) to Rs 14 crores, Curran will continue receiving his existing fee of Rs 2.4 crores.

Samson had a redemption story to remember, as he went from not being a part of the playing eleven in the start and having a frustratingly inconsistent form, he went on to play three of the most important innings of his career when it mattered the most, producing gems right from the virtual quarterfinal to the title clash against New Zealand. Tharoor also wished Samson for a new beginning in the Indian Premier League (IPL) with five-time champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK), a franchise he was traded to after years of association with Rajasthan Royals.

Rajasthan Regals wrote a fantastic new chapter in the history of Indian professional golf, winning the inaugural PGTI's 72 The League, with a commanding 12-3 win over table-toppers UP Prometheans on Friday at Qutab Golf Course.

The 31-year-old wicketkeeper-batter will play for CSK in the IPL 2026 after being traded from the Rajasthan Royals before the mini auction in 2025. Samson has made 4704 runs in 176 IPL matches at an average of 30 and has hit 26 half-centuries and three centuries.
