Rajasthan Royals IPL Fantasy Cricket Team

History of Rajasthan Royals Team In IPL

Rajasthan Royals is a cricket franchise in the Indian Premier League (IPL). Founded in 2008, this franchise was extremely low-profile and least expensive among all eight franchises. They lifted the champions’ trophy in the very first season under the captaincy of Shane Warne. However, they have not managed to win an IPL title for the second time since.
RR is known for its unearthly hidden, high-potential talent and involvement in several controversies and scandals. In 2015, this team was banned for two years along with another popular franchise, CSK, according to the Lodha Committee inquiry, due to their involvement in cricket betting, which is completely illegal in India. In 2018, they came back and participated in the biggest T20 league, IPL.

Rajasthan Royals is managed by multiple owners. The team is owned by Amisha Hathiramani, who holds a stake of 44.2%. The other minority stakeholders are Manoj Badale (32.4%), Lachlan Murdoch (11.7 %), and Shane Warne (11.7%). The current CEO of this team is Mike Fordhan, while Romi Bhinder is the team manager.

Rajasthan Royals Retained Players 2022

Except for skipper Sanju Samson, all the teammates looked very uncontrolled throughout the season last year as they finished at no.7 of the points table, winning just five matches out of 14. They will try to forget about the 2021 season and go ahead. As per the rules and regulations of IPL, ahead of the coming season, Rajasthan Royals had an option to retain four players. But the franchise retained only three players, skipper Sanju Samson (14 cr), English batsman Joe Butler (10 cr), and uncapped 19-year-old Yashasvi Jaiswal (4 cr). Royals have a massive 62 crores INR to select the players from the mega auction to make a balanced squad for next year.

Rajasthan Royals Home Ground

The home ground of Rajasthan Royals is Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur. This stadium, handled by Rajasthan Cricket Association, seats 30,000 and is one of the finest in India. You can see RCA cricket academy, conference rooms, gym around 30 appointed rooms, swimming pool, and restaurant in the stadium. From the previous two seasons, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, all the teams were forced to play in the UAE, where they played at Zayed Cricket Stadium (Abu Dhabi), Dubai International Cricket Stadium (Dubai), and Sharjah stadium in a bio-bubble environment.
