Build the all-time Rajasthan Royals XI
Rajasthan Royals has 330 player-seasons across 17 years of Indian T20 history (2008–2026). Spin their seasons, draft eleven across the club's whole history within the 125 Cr purse, and simulate sixteen matches. Can the all-time Rajasthan Royals XI go a perfect 16-0?
The club in the book
Rajasthan Royals won the first title in 2008 with the smallest budget in the league, and their draft pool has stayed on brand ever since: the moneyball franchise. The shelf's crown jewel is Jos Buttler's 2022 — 863 runs at a strike rate of 149 — the single highest-rated player-season in the entire game, priced at a very gettable 13.9 Cr.
The bargains around it are the point. Vaibhav Sooryavanshi's 776-run 2026 (strike rate 237) costs 1.1 Cr and rates inside the game's top five seasons overall. Sohail Tanvir's 22-wicket 2008 — the inaugural Purple Cap — goes for 2.5 Cr. Shreyas Gopal's 20-wicket 2019 costs 0.30 Cr. Like Chennai, the club sat out 2016 and 2017, so the pool spans 17 drafts. The 2022 squad that reached the final is the deepest Rajasthan season in the book.
