Led by some of the biggest names in cricket history, including the legendary Shane Warne, Rajasthan Royals made an immediate impact by winning the inaugural IPL season in 2008. But that was just the beginning! Over the years, Rajasthan Royals have continued to perform well in the IPL, reaching the playoffs 4 times.
Let's take a look at the tentative squad of Rajasthan Royals for the 2023 season:
Captain
A lot would be expected from the Indian National Team's Wicketkeeper/Batter Sanju Samson. He has been in sublime form for the ICT. In the 2022 season, he led Rajasthan Royals to the Finals. He joined Rajasthan Royals in the 2013 season. Since then, he has become a mainstay of the Rajasthan Royals team, known for his explosive batting style, sharp fielding, and leadership skills. In 2021, he was appointed as the captain of the team, becoming the youngest player ever to lead an IPL franchise.
Batters
The orange cap winner of the 2022 season, Jos Butler, will be leading the line for the Rajasthan Royals. Fans and management alike would be hoping for a similar performance from him. Devdutt Padikkal, Shimron Hetmeyers, the legendary Joe Root, and others will be making up the middle order along with the Captain, Sanju Samson.
