As Rajasthan Royals are set to begin their IPL 2022 campaign against Sunrisers Hyderabad on March 29, it will be apt to say that the Jaipur-based side look like a complete squad among the nine others on paper.
Despite not having the likes of Ben Stokes and Jofra Archer, Rajasthan made some terrific buys in the IPL 2022 mega Auction. With R Ashwin and Yuzvendra Chahal, the Royals have the most experienced spinners in the team.
Rajasthan Royals Predicted Playing XI for IPL 2022
Like always Jos Buttler will open the batting for Rajasthan Royals along with Yashasvi Jaiswal. Captain Sanju Samson will strengthen the middle order along with Shimron Hetmyer, Riyan Parag and all-rounder James Neesham. The pace bowling department will be led by New Zealand's spearhead Trent Boult, who will be ably supported by the Indians Prasidh Krishna and Navdeep Saini.
