IPL 2025: Is there rift within Rajasthan Royals team?

Cricket fans across India find themselves in heated discussions following the Rajasthan Royals' thrilling Super Over victory in the ongoing IPL 2025. 

While the match itself was a testament to the spirit and vigour of the sport, it's a particular post-match incident that has captured the collective attention of enthusiasts.

Captain and Coach at Odds?

A video that surfaced after the match shows Rahul Dravid, the head coach of Rajasthan Royals, engaged in a fervent strategy talk with his support team prior to the critical Super Over against the formidable Australian bowler Mitchell Starc. Notably absent from this dialogue was team captain Sanju Samson, who was seen standing detached near the dugout.

While the true dynamics within the Rajasthan Royals camp remain unknown, the incident has sparked a lively debate across social media platforms. Supporters are divided, with many taking to Twitter and Facebook to voice their views on the unfolding saga.
