Ben Stokes And Jofra Archer Released By Rajasthan Royals (RR) In IPL 2022 Retention. One of the best all-rounders in the world of cricket right now, Ben Stokes has been released by Rajasthan Royals for next year. The English all-rounder played only one match for Rajasthan Royals in IPL 2021. His campaign came to an end after injuring his finger in the first game he played against Punjab Kings.
Notably, he got out on a duck in that game and bowled just one over. Ben Stokes got ruled out of the tournament after that. He also took a break from international cricket to focus on his mental health. Stokes will be returning to action when England take on Australia in the first of the five-match Ashes series against Australia.

Rajasthan Royals bought Ben Stokes for a whopping amount of INR 12.5 crores. His performances, however, weren’t too satisfying, to say the least. He scored a century in IPL 2020 but besides that, there wasn’t any notable contribution with the bat.
England pacer, Jofra Archer has also been released by Rajasthan Royals in the Indian Premier League. Archer was bought by Rajasthan Royals in the 2018 edition for 7.20 Crores. He was outstanding in all three seasons that he was part of. Jofra played 35 matches and picked 46 wickets at an impressive economy of an average of 7.13 and 21.32.
Archer was ruled out of the IPL 2021 due to an injury to his right elbow. Ahead of the Mega Auctions, Rajasthan Royals have decided to let go of their express fast bowler for next season.
