Rajasthan Royals (often abbreviated as RR) are a professional franchise cricket team based in Jaipur, Rajasthan, that competes in the Indian Premier League (IPL).[2] Founded in 2008 as one of the initial eight IPL franchises, the team is owned by Manoj Badale and The Royals Sports Group.[3] The Royals team is based at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur.[4][5] It plays its home matches at Sawai Mansingh Stadium and at ACA Stadium, Guwahati.[6] The Royals are known to unearth obscure and high potential talent.[7][8]
The team won the inaugural edition of the IPL under the captaincy of Shane Warne, despite being written off as a title contender by the media and fans. The Royals were also the runners-up of the 2013 Champions League Twenty20 under Rahul Dravid's captaincy,[6][9] and the runners-up of the 2022 Indian Premier League under the captaincy of Sanju Samson and leadership of Kumar Sangakkara.
On 14 July 2015, the verdict reached by a panel appointed by the Supreme Court of India suspended Rajasthan Royals and Chennai Super Kings for two years over a 2013 betting scandal, meaning they could not participate in both the 2016 and 2017 IPL tournaments. The team returned to the competition with the 2018 season.
The team's record run-scorer is Sanju Samson with 3403 runs,[10] while the leading wicket-taker is Shane Watson, with 67 wickets.[11]
