New Delhi, April 30: Rajasthan Royals are monitoring Sanju Samson on a “daily basis” after their regular skipper was sidelined due to a side strain, said head coach Rahul Dravid on Wednesday. Samson has missed three matches so far owing to the niggle – against LSG, RCB and Gujarat Titans, and is set to miss RR’s clash against MI.
Dravid said while Samson is recovering well, the franchise would not want to rush the wicketkeeper-batter.
“Sanju is recovering well but we just have to take it day-by-day. It’s a side-strain and sometimes these side strains can be a bit tricky and we don’t want to harm him in the long run. We are monitoring it on a daily basis and we will see how it pulls up. Every day we get reports whether he is available or not so we will take it day-by-day and see how he goes but he is very well looked after,” Dravid said. (PTI)
