The 2008 champions, Rajasthan Royals, have mostly kept onto their core players as they go closer to the player auction, which takes place in Dubai on December 19. Important players like Trent Boult, Prasidh Krishna, Jos Buttler, Ravichandran Ashwin, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Yuzvendra Chahal, and captain Sanju Samson are part of this core. Let's take a look at the players they will look to buy with Rs 14.5 Crore remaining and 8 slots to fill.
RR Retained Players
Sanju Samson (c), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shimron Hetmyer, Jos Buttler, Dhruv Jurel, Riyan Parag, Sandeep Sharma (replacement), Trent Boult, Navdeep Saini, Kuldeep Sen, Kuldip Yadav, Ravichandran Ashwin, Yuzvendra Chahal, Donovan Ferreira, Kunal Rathore, Adam Zampa, Prasidh Krishna.
RR Released Players
Joe Root, Abdul Basith, Jason Holder, Akash Vashisht, Kuldip Yadav, Obed McCoy, Murugan Ashwin, KC Cariappa, KM Asif.
James Neesham
Neesham, with a base price of Rs 1.5 crore, is a compelling choice for the Royals. Selecting a foreign player such as Neesham might strengthen RR's batting lineup and add variety to their bowling assault, especially since they already have a strong set of Indian bowlers in their ranks.
Daryl Mitchell
Mitchell of New Zealand can be the perfect solution for RR's middle-order batting trouble. His outstanding performance in the 2023 ODI World Cup has drawn notice, as he was instrumental in leading New Zealand to the semifinals.
Rovman Powell
Powell is an aggressive batter who can destroy pace attacks in the last overs. His propensity to finish makes him a highly sought-after player in the IPL 2024 Auction.
