One of the biggest turnarounds witnessed during the present edition of Indian Premier League (IPL) is that of Rajasthan Royals (RR).

Being tagged as one of the favourites with the kind of firepower in the squad, Royals’ started off their campaign quite dismally.

With the early string of defeats, Royals were languishing at the bottom half of the table in the month of April and early May.

Their IPL-winning mentor Shane Warne had to come back and change the fortunes of the team. Royals, on the back of splendid form 0f Jos Buttler, progressed into the playoffs, after clinching few crucial wins in the second half of the tournament.

Warne, who bid adieu to his team a week prior to their last round-robin league game, wished the team all the best from distance, ahead of the eliminator.

Good luck to all the @rajasthanroyals boys tonight – you’ve got this! I have a feeling that all the boys will fire tonight & get the job done!” Shane Warne tweeted recently.

Also, the spin wizard Warne reckons that there is something special in store for Sanju Samson in an enticing clash. Warne also expected the spin trio of Royals to come good against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR).
