The Rajasthan Royals (RR) enter the 2026 season in the midst of a massive identity shift. For the first time in over a decade, the franchise moves forward without Sanju Samson, who was traded to CSK in a blockbuster deal that brought veteran Ravindra Jadeja and Sam Curran to the “Pink City.”
Now led by the homegrown talent Riyan Parag, the Royals are leaning into a “New Age” strategy centered on all-round depth and fearless youth.
