Rajasthan Royals got their much-needed win in their second game against the mighty Delhi Capitals side and their next encounter will be with the Chennai Super Kings. Rajasthan’s injuries have been a blessing in disguise for them as Jos Buttler has moved up to the top while David Miller has suited well to the middle order.

Rajasthan Royals million dollar man Chris Morris proved his worth and repaid the faith shown in him during the IPL Auction. He played a blinder of an innings in the last game against Delhi Capitals which helped them register two points on board for the first time in this season. Here are three stars from Rajasthan Royals who will be game-changers against Chennai Super Kings.

3 Stars From Rajasthan Royals Who Can Be Game Changers:

Jos Buttler has had a quiet season so far and he has been far from his best. However, he will be happy to be at the top of the order again as Ben Stokes is not available due to injury and it is his most preferred position too. He will have to make full use of his opportunity at the top.

Buttler did show signs of good form in the first game against Punjab and in the second game, he was dismissed by a beauty of a delivery from Chris Woakes which took him by surprise. He has been very consistent from the 2018 IPL and will be the X factor player for the Royals in the game against Chennai Super Kings. He is a 360-degree player and can change the game around in a very quick time.

David Miller did the repair work for the Royals team as they faltered with the early fall of wickets and he has been in really good form in the international setup too. He can exhibit heavy damage on any bowling setup and was one of the key factors in the previous win for the Rajasthan Royals.

He scored a brilliant 62 off just 43 deliveries and almost won the game for the Royals until he was dismissed by Avesh Khan. He was on the sidelines for the most part of the last IPL edition and the Royals would be very upset about keeping him in the tank for so long. His form will be crucial to Rajasthan’s plans going forward and he needs to continue the good work.

Jaydev Unadkat:

The left-arm seamer Jaydev Unadkat who bagged the man of the match award in the previous game proved a point to the critics and was exceptional with the lines and lengths he bowled. He was criticized for leaking a lot of runs in the previous two editions and this spell certainly will give him a lot of confidence.

He was benched in the first game and his desire to do well in the second game was very evident in his approach. He finished with figures of three wickets for 15 runs and scalped the top three of the Delhi batting. He has bowled well with the new ball and Sanju Samson used his four overs before the 14th over mark which was very unusual but effective. If he can bring out performances like those, he will be a game-changer for the Rajasthan Royals.
