The Rajasthan Royals are all pumped up as they are getting ready to play in the IPL playoffs in 2024. RR, after winning 8 out of 14 games, is comfortably seated in the third spot and have successfully qualified for the final four.
Rajasthan Royals have consistently done well in the IPL over the years, but they haven’t managed to win more IPL trophies except in 2008 under the captaincy of Shane Warne. What is on the plate this time? Before making any decisions, let’s first have a look at RR’s track record in previous IPL seasons. Then, we can find ourselves in a comfortable space to judge how they can perform in the big matches.

RR Playoffs hurdle begins!
Speaking about RR in the playoffs is surely not a good topic to discuss in front of RR fans and their team. RR have played four times since the 2008 victory, but they have never achieved success. In 2013, they surely defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad in the eliminator after finishing in third place. But they lost the qualifier 2 against the Mumbai Indians, who eventually became champions that year.
In 2015, they certainly secured a spot in the playoffs after finishing the group stage in 4th place, but once again failed to make an impact as they lost in the eliminator to Royal Challengers Bengaluru by a significant margin of 71 runs.
In 2018, the playoff hurdle remained a challenge for them as well. Under the captaincy of Steve Smith, it was considered their best chance, as the team was performing exceptionally well. However, they couldn’t make that final push. They lost the eliminator once again, this time to the Kolkata Knight Riders.
