During an IPL 2025 match between Delhi Capitals and Rajasthan Royals, Rajasthan captain Sanju Samson was warned by the umpire for his positioning on the field, causing a slight delay in the game. The incident occurred towards the end of Delhi’s innings as they set a target of 189 runs. The warning came after Samson was seen standing on the edge of the 30-yard circle during a delivery by Jofra Archer. Former England cricketer Graeme Swann commented on the incident, highlighting the importance of field positioning in cricket. In response, Samson explained his stance to the umpires. Despite the delay, Delhi managed to post a competitive total of 188/5, with Abishek Porel top-scoring with 49 runs. The match saw momentum swinging between the two teams, with contributions from KL Rahul, Axar Patel, and Tristan Stubbs.
