[Watch] “This Prank Was Incomplete…” Rajasthan Royals Host Fake Admin Audition

The Rajasthan Royals franchise pulled off a prank on their supporters, after releasing an official statement, firing their social media admin. Their skipper Sanju Samson on Friday seemed miffed at a social media post of the franchise.

Sanju expressed his displeasure at an image depicting him in a way that he did not like. The Rajasthan Royals then released a statement, sacking their social media admin. However, on Saturday, they clarified stating that it was a prank.

The franchise also hosted a fake audition, as a part of the prank. They uploaded the video on their Instagram profile, captioning it as, “This prank was incomplete without a fake audition. 😂 P.S. Tough luck, Yuzi 👀 #RoyalsFamily | #HallaBol”

Rajasthan Royals players, Yuzvendra Chahal, Shimron Hetmyer, Riyan Parag, Obed McCoy, and coach Dishant Yagnik can be seen in the video, auditioning for the admin’s post in Bollywood style.

“He is a magnificent player, destructive, match-winner, has every ability that you want in a batter. He was captain before I took over last season. I have come to know him really well and admire him. He’s got such a passion for RR. He started here, he values that. He is a captain who is willing to admit that he doesn’t know everything as yet and he is going to grow into it. He’s got natural leadership qualities. He’s going to get better and better.”
