Sam Curran Ruled Out of IPL 2026 Season: Before IPL 2026, Rajasthan Royals have suffered a big setback. The team’s star English all-rounder Sam Curran may be out of the entire season due to injury. According to reports, he is suffering from a groin injury, which has not been completely cured. In such a situation, it is considered very difficult for him to play this season.
Concern increased after the World Cup
Sam Curran last played for England in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 on March 5. After this match, questions started being raised about his fitness. He was not seen on the field after the defeat against India in the semi-finals and now it has become clear that the injury is more serious than expected.
Entry into the team through big trade
Sam Curran joined Rajasthan Royals from Chennai Super Kings in a big trade before IPL 2026. In this deal, Ravindra Jadeja also reached Rajasthan, while Sanju Samson joined Chennai. This trade was one of the most talked about deals before the tournament and fans had high expectations from Curran.
Last season’s performance was ordinary
If we look at Karan’s previous IPL performance, he could not live up to the expectations. He performed averagely with both bat and ball in limited matches. However, looking at his all-round ability, it was believed that he would make a strong comeback in the new season. But injury has spoiled his plans.
Team balance will be affected
This blow is also big for Rajasthan Royals because Karan is the player who gives balance to the team. He has the ability to score fast runs in the middle order as well as take wickets at important times. In his absence the team may have to change its combination.

At present, the team management has not made any official announcement regarding his replacement, but options are under consideration. The team has experienced all-rounders like Ravindra Jadeja, while Donovan Ferreira can also play a useful role. Now it will be interesting to see how Rajasthan fills this gap and whether any new player can capitalize on this opportunity and cement his place in the team.
