Trophy hunt since 2008 triumph, so many highs and sudden lows, strategical auction in 2024. Will Rajasthan #HallaBol for the second time in IPL 2024?
INTRODUCTION:
The Royals had a decent campaign last year finishing 5th in the table. But the disappointing thing is that they actually slipped to the position from being table toppers at one stage. They won 5 out their first 8 games and just 2 out of the next 6. Despite not qualifying, the Royals didn’t drop a lot of players going into the auction. Hence, they had a minimum purse & were looking for just replacements. They released Jason Holder the bowling all-rounder and bought Rovman Powell the batting allrounder. They also found a replacement for Trent Boult in Nadnre Burger and traded Avesh Khan for Devdutt Padikkal.
PLAYING XI:
Yashasvi Jaiswal
Jos Buttler
Sanju Samson (C & WK)
Rovman Powell
Shimron Hetmeyer
Dhurv Jurel
Riyan Parag
Ravi Ashwin
Trent Boult
Avesh Khan
Yuzi Chahal
IMPACT SUB: Kuldeep Sen
SHORT ANALYSIS:
The Royals have a power packed top order supported with experienced bowling attack. They will hope that they won’t make the tactical errors and use the impact player wisely which they failed to do last year.
