Rajasthan Royals 3 Players To Watch Out in IPL 2024: IPL 2024 is around the corner, and Rajasthan Royals are gearing up with a renewed focus. Despite being considered underdogs in the IPL, the team has a history of having a talented squad. However, their journey to the playoffs has been limited, making it only five times in their history.
Rajasthan Royals 3 Players To Watch Out in IPL 2024
Last season, Rajasthan Royals, the inaugural champions, seemed poised for victory, but a series of losses in the later stages of the tournament prevented them from securing a top-four finish.
Their recent highlight was reaching the finals in the 2022 season, where they faced defeat against Gujarat Titans. Interestingly, the Titans achieved what the Royals did in 2008 – winning the league in their debut season.
3 Key Players from Rajasthan Royals to watch out for in IPL 2024:
#1. Yashasvi Jaiswal
Brought into the team in 2020 after a successful U-19 World Cup, Yashasvi Jaiswal had high expectations. The breakthrough came in the 2023 season when he scored a remarkable 615 runs in the IPL. Following this, he earned a spot in the Indian team, making an impact with 171 runs in his Test debut against the West Indies. Jaiswal, now a rising star, will be a crucial part of Rajasthan Royals’ strong batting order in his fifth season with the franchise.
#2. Nandre Burger
With a notable domestic career, Nandre Burger gained prominence in 2023, playing for the Johannesburg Super Kings in the SA20 league. Following a successful debut for the South African national team, the Royals acquired him for Rs. 50 lakh in the IPL auction. Known for his impactful yorkers and the ability to bowl at over 90 mph, Burger is a valuable addition to the team, even if he may not play every match in his debut IPL season.
#3. Dhruv Jurel
Gaining attention after his recent call-up to the Indian Test squad, Dhruv Jurel showcased his skills in the 2023 IPL with Rajasthan Royals. Becoming the team’s finisher, he scored 152 runs with an impressive strike rate of 172.73. As a talented wicketkeeper, Jurel represents a potential gem for the Royals, and this season will be a significant test for the franchise in developing him into a world-class finisher.
As the IPL 2024 unfolds, these three players could be the game-changers for Rajasthan Royals, bringing excitement and anticipation to fans.
