\n\nR Ashwin didn't hold back and took a dig at the user who tried to troll him over Sanju Samson. An X user highlighted Sanju Samson's below-par form in the five-match T20I series against New Zealand and tagged Ashwin in his post. Ashwin, who is quite active on social media, saw the post and gave it back to the user. "Hello Ashwin Your first choice Sanju flopped throughout the entire series @ashwinravi99," the user wrote. "Sanju is my first choice, he's your full-time obsession," Ashwin responded. The former India captain has often praised Samson, who is now only part of the T20I team.
\n\nAshwin also played under Samson's captaincy at Rajasthan Royals (RR) in IPL. Ashwin joined RR in the IPL 2022 mega-auction and played for them till 2025. Samson captained RR to the final of IPL 2022.
\n\nRR tried to re-sign Ashwin in the IPL 2025 mega-auction but missed out. He joined Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and retired after just one season. RR retained Samson before IPL 2025. He joined CSK via trade before IPL 2026.
