First match against whose captaincy I made my debut

Vaibhav Suryavanshi made his debut in IPL 2025 for Rajasthan Royals under the captaincy of Sanju Samson. But, since Sanju has reached Chennai from Rajasthan after being traded in IPL 2026, now he will not be with Vaibhav but against him. For Vaibhav Suryavanshi, Sanju Samson is like his elder brother and he had expressed this through his Instagram post when Sanju Samson was about to leave Rajasthan Royals.

Jadeja-Karan will play against Chennai Super Kings

Vaibhav Suryavanshi will definitely face his first IPL captain in the match between Rajasthan Royals and Chennai Super Kings on March 30. Apart from them, Ravindra Jadeja and Sam Curran will also be seen playing against their old team and teammates.
