RR Full Players List in IPL 2022: Rajasthan Royals won the first season of the Indian Premier League in 2008 under Shane Warne’s captaincy and since then it has been a barren run for the team in pink. They have reached the playoffs three times following their 2008 success but couldn’t repeat the heroics they did back during the inaugural season.
The Royals have largely relied upon their overseas players predominantly the Englishmen. The likes of Jos Buttler, Jofra Archer, Liam Livingstone and Ben Stokes used to form a strong core for the team which apparently dented their hopes several times.
