The Rajasthan Royals, a team with one IPL trophy, have had a fair number of coaches. Now, with Rahul Dravid set to take charge as head coach, we might see some significant changes for the Royals. The franchise had a mixed season in IPL 2024, performing well initially but slipping down the final points table after losing to Sunrisers Hyderabad in Qualifier 2 by 36 runs. With these new changes, could we expect a turnaround? The team has seen several coaches over the years. Let’s take a look at all the coaches who have been part of this franchise.
Rajasthan Royals Coaches in IPL
| Year | Coach |
| 2008-2012 | Shane Warne |
| 2013-2015 | Paddy Upton |
| 2019 | Paddy Upton |
| 2020 | Andrew McDonald |
It is interesting to note that the Rajasthan Royals have not had a dedicated head coach, Kumar Sangakkara was serving as the Director of Cricket from 2021. Now, with Rahul Dravid is confirmed to take charge as the head coach, we can expect a potential stabilization of the team. Dravid has a strong association with the franchise, having represented the Royals between 2011 and 2013, and also served as a mentor during the 2014 and 2015 seasons.
