Rajasthan Royals’ star opener Yashasvi Jaiswal has ignited speculation about his future with the franchise after posting a cryptic message on social media following the conclusion of IPL 2025. His heartfelt post, thanking the Royals for their support, has led fans to wonder whether he is preparing to part ways with the team.
Jaiswal’s Emotional Instagram Post
Shortly after Rajasthan Royals secured a six-wicket victory against Chennai Super Kings, Jaiswal took to Instagram to express his gratitude. His post read:
“Thank you, Rajasthan Royals, for everything. Not the season we hoped for, but continue to be grateful for our journey together. On to the next challenge and whatever the future brings.”
While the message appears to be a simple note of appreciation, many fans and analysts believe it hints at a potential exit from the franchise.
Jaiswal’s Impact on Rajasthan Royals
Since joining Rajasthan Royals in 2020 for INR 2.40 crore, Jaiswal has established himself as one of the most consistent openers in the IPL. In IPL 2025, he finished as Rajasthan’s top run-scorer, amassing 559 runs in 14 matches at an impressive strike rate of 159.71. His performances have also earned him a spot in the Indian national team across all formats.
Future Prospects: Will Jaiswal Move to Another Franchise?
Jaiswal’s stellar performances have made him a highly sought-after player, and reports suggest that Mumbai Indians could be interested in acquiring him for the IPL 2026 season. However, no official confirmation has been made regarding his departure from Rajasthan Royals.
Revised Caption: Putting an End to Speculation?
Amid growing rumors, Jaiswal revised his Instagram caption, subtly altering the wording to emphasize his continued commitment to the franchise and his focus on India’s upcoming Test tour of England. This move has reassured some fans that he may not be leaving Rajasthan Royals just yet.
What’s Next for Jaiswal?
With IPL 2025 wrapped up, Jaiswal is now preparing for his first Test tour of England, where he is expected to play a crucial role in India’s batting lineup. Whether he remains with Rajasthan Royals or moves to a new franchise in IPL 2026, his future promises to be exciting.
