After failing to qualify for the playoffs in the last IPL season, the Rajasthan Royals (RR) have bolstered their playing XI and squad with quality picks. Their 5th-place finish in the IPL 2023 saw them retain a lot of players, leaving just 8 slots available and Rs 14.5 crore in hand for the IPL 2024 auction. Bagging 3 overseas and 5 players in total, RR made full use of the money they had.
With 3 months left before the IPL 2024 season kicks off, one can’t predict the franchise’s performance in the coming season, but we can speculate about RR’s playing XI.
Players Bought by RR at the IPL 2024 Auction
Rovman Powell (7.4 crore), Shubham Dubey (5.8 crore), Tom Kohler-Cadmore (40 lakh), Nandre Burger (50 lakh), Abid Mushtaq (20 lakh).
How RR fared in the IPL 2024 auction
With three quality batters (Rovman Powell, Tom Kohler-Cadmore, and Shubham Dubey), an out-and-out fast bowler (Nandre Burger), and a spinner in Abid Mushtaq, RR has covered all their bases.
Having just 8 slots left (3 overseas), RR has made use of its resources. They end the IPL 2024 auction with five picks, which helps RR have a balanced squad and playing XI. Apart from their auction picks, the franchise also added Avesh Khan to their pace bowling battery during the auction trade window.
