Rajasthan Royals will play without their key player, Sanju Samson, and now they are going to have a brand new captain, Riyan Parag, for IPL 2026. With Parag seeking to do well in his first season as full-time captain, RR will even rely upon the brand new recruit Ravindra Jadeja to supply much-needed stability to the team.
Nevertheless, Jadeja and Sam Curran have joined RR, while Samson made his approach to the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) via trade as well. Nevertheless, Sam Curran was ruled out because of a groin injury, and Dasun Shanaka has been named as his alternative. RR will start their campaign at home in Guwahati against CSK on March 30 as well.
Meanwhile, the onus might be on the openers, Yashasvi Jaiswal and the talented young batter Vaibhav Sooryavanshi. While Jaiswal has been a top performer for the franchise, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi has impressed everyone along with his stunning batting style.
