Despite money being a major constraint, RR managed to pick up good players during the auction and covered their bases completely. Down below is the complete list of player bought by Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2023 Auction.
Although Rajasthan placed their bids for a number of high-profile players, their low purse value kept them a step behind the competitors. They opened bids for Harry Brook, Sam Curran, Nicholas Pooran, Ben Stokes and Shivam Mavi, but all went in vain.
