Last season, Samson accumulated 362 runs in 14 matches at a strike rate of 153.39, with three half-centuries. His contributions aided RR in securing fifth place on the points table with seven wins in 14 games.

The right-handed batsman, retained for INR 14 crore, has consistently scored over 300 runs each season since 2017. Overall, the 29-year-old has amassed 3,888 runs in 152 games, including three centuries and 20 fifties.

Following his omission from the 2023 ODI World Cup squad, Samson is eager to showcase his abilities and stake a claim for the 2024 T20 World Cup through consistent performances in the T20 tournament.

Samson’s most recent cricketing appearance was for Kerala in the Ranji Trophy, where he scored a fifty against Chhattisgarh.
