The 2008 IPL champions retained Sanju Samson, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Dhruv Jurel, Riyan Parag, Shimron Hetmyer, and Sandeep Sharma before the 2025 mega-auction. When the auction arrived, they picked some top players like Jofra Archer, Mahesh Theekshana, Wanindu Hasaranga, Tushar Deshpande, and Fazalhaq Farooqi these players were added to their squad.
Sanju Samson’s leadership has brought Rajasthan more success in the IPL. Under Samson's captaincy, the team reached the final in 2022 and made it to the playoffs again in 2024. But both times they didn't win the title. Something the management will be eager to fix ahead of the upcoming season. And also then former India head coach Rahul Dravid has rejoined the franchise. He is now working with Kumar Sangakkara and Vikram Rathour to strengthen the squad and push for a title.
The Indian Premier League 2025 is likely to kick off on March 21, with defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders set to play the opening match at their home ground, Eden Gardens. Fans can expect an electrifying start at the venue, which is also expected to host the grand finale. However, the BCCI has yet to officially announce the complete schedule for the tournament.
