Rajasthan Royals assembled the best possible squad in the mega-auction, held earlier this year in February. They have had all bases covered right from the auction table and it reflected right in their performance in IPL 2022.

They won nine matches in the league stage out of the 14 they played and grafted their way to the final of the tournament, where they suffered a seven wickets defeat at the hands of Gujarat Titans (GT).
