During the IPL 2025 match between Rajasthan Royals and Delhi Capitals on April 16, Sanju Samson retired hurt due to rib cage pain after scoring 31 off 19 balls. The injury occurred while facing Vipraj Nigam in the sixth over, leading to his replacement by Riyan Parag.
Post-match, Samson provided an update, stating, “It feels alright. I wasn’t just ready to come back and bat. It feels alright now. We will observe it tomorrow and see how it is.”
The match concluded dramatically, with Delhi Capitals winning in a Super Over after Mitchell Starc’s exceptional final over performance.
Regarding the commentator’s remark, the specific phrase “Tear in…” lacks a direct source or full context in the available reports.
