IPL 2023 Auction: 3 Players Which Can Be Retained By Rajasthan Royals (RR)
Sanju Samson
It seems the persistent trust in Sanju Samson by the Rajasthan Royals has finally paid off. The captain of the franchise led the team in a better way as compared to the last few years. He was also good with the bat, making valuable contributions in the middle order. Sanju Samson was the second most successful batsman for the franchise in IPL 2022, scoring 458 runs in 17 innings.
He was also very vocal in the field, making the right decisions. Rajasthan Royals did not win the trophy, but they have won a lot of heart, and a lot of credit goes to Sanju Samson. He will surely be retained ahead of the IPL 2023 auction.
Yuzvendra Chahal
Yuzvendra Chahal, a leg spinner, won the Purple cap for taking the most wickets in IPL 2022. Chahal took 27 wickets in 17 games for an average of 19.51 runs per over and an economy of under 8 runs per over. Against Kolkata Knight Riders, the leggie also picked up a hattrick and a five-wicket haul. Rajasthan Royals will almost certainly want to keep Chahal as their frontline bowler till the IPL 2023 auction.
Jos Buttler
Scoring 863 runs in 17 innings, including 4 centuries, Jos Buttler was phenomenal with the bat for RR. Batting at the top of the order, Buttler provided the best possible start for the team. He was calm at the start, but as he settled and got used to the pace and bounce of the wicket, Buttler was unstoppable. He was very lethal against the spinners. Jos Buttler won 8 individual awards, including the orange cap. Rajasthan Royals will surely retain him ahead of the IPL 2023 auction.
