The champions of the inaugural edition of the Indian Premier League had a dismal season last year. Despite getting a good start, they finished last in the league stages. The Jaipur based team could win only 6 out of the 14 matches that they played in the 13th IPL edition. Ahead of the 14th IPL edition, they dropped a bomb by releasing their skipper of the previous season, Steve Smith. Swashbuckling wicket-keeper batsman Sanju Samson will take over reins from the Australian as they look to make amends. This year they focused on their bowling options and roped in proven performers in the form of Chris Morris and Mustafizur Rahman. Royals spent a whopping 16.25 CR on Chris Morris, making him the costliest buy of this year’s auction. They also bagged Shivam Dube, K.C Cariappa, Liam Livingstone and Chetan Sakariya.
