Rajasthan Royals Playing 11 vs RCB- IPL 2025, Match 28

Rajasthan Royals (RR) will look to return to winning ways when they take on Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in the 28th game of the ongoing Indian Premier League 2025 (IPL 2025). The RR vs RCB match is scheduled to be played on Sunday (April 13) at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur.

Rajasthan Royals will be keen to bounce back after a poor display against Gujarat Titans in their last game. Bowling first, the Sanju Samson-led side could not restrict the Titans to a modest total. Riding on Sai Sudharsan's 82-run knock, the Titans scored 217/6 in the allotted 20 overs.

In reply, the Rajasthan Royals rarely looked in contention to chase down the total. They kept losing wickets at regular intervals and were bowled out for only 159 runs.

With Rajasthan Royals looking to get back to winning ways against RCB, we are taking a look at the RRRajasthan RoyalsPlaying 11 for the forthcoming match.

Rajasthan Royals Playing 11 vs RCB- IPL 2025, Match 28:

Openers: Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sanju Samson (c & wk)

Yashasvi Jaiswal and Sanju Samson are set to be the openers in the RR Playing 11 for the upcoming match. With RR in desperate need of a win, the onus will be on Jaiswal and Samson to give their team a good start with the bat.

Jaiswal will look to bounce back after scoring only 6 runs in the previous game. On the other hand, Samson scored 41 runs and will look to contribute with the bat again.

Middle-order: Nitish Rana, Riyan Parag, Shimron Hetmyer, Dhruv Jurel

Most of RR's middle-order batters failed to impress with the bat in the last game and will be eyeing a better display against RCB. Nitish Rana was out for just 1 run but is expected to retain his spot in the RR Playing 11 for the upcoming game.

Riyan Parag got the start once again, but he failed to capitalise on it. The RR star smashed 26 runs off just 14 balls before being dismissed.

Dhruv Jurel will look to deliver with the bat after managing to score only 5 runs in the last game. Shimron Hetmyer was the pick of the RR batters in the last game. The RR star scored 52 runs in the previous game and will look to impress with the bat once again.

Shubham Dubey was used as an impact player in the previous game, and he could play a similar role in the upcoming game as well. Dubey scored just 1 run in the last game and will look to do better if he gets another opportunity.

Bowlers: Jofra Archer, Maheesh Theekshana, Fazalhaq Farooqi, Sandeep Sharma, Tushar Deshpande

Bowling first in their last game, RR played five frontline bowlers and are likely to have the same lineup if they bowl first. The RR Playing 11 had four pacers and one frontline spinner against GT.

Jofra Archer, Fazalhaq Farooqi, Sandeep Sharma, and Tushar Deshpande were the four fast bowlers, while Maheesh Theekshana led the spin attack.

Deshpande and Theekshana were the pick of the RR bowlers, taking 2 wickets each, while Archer and Sharma claimed one wicket apiece.
