IPL 2025: 3 RR Players who deserve a better team in IPL 2026

The goal of the Rajasthan Royals has always been to assemble a well-rounded squad with a solid nucleus of both domestic and foreign players. Even with a well-organized system, some gifted people were not given the regular chances or ideal positions they required to succeed.

A change of location and clearer responsibilities could help certain players find form, gain confidence, and have a greater influence in the tournament as teams get ready for the 2026 Indian Premier League.

Here are the 3 RR Players who deserve a better team in IPL 2026:

1. Yashasvi Jaiswal

One of India's most promising batting talents, Yashasvi Jaiswal, saw a decline in form early in the 2025 Indian Premier League, but he still finished with almost 500 runs while having trouble keeping pace at the top. With little solidity or support in the middle order, he frequently had to produce early.

He could play freely and not have to bear the majority of the duty alone at the top with plenty of backup from a team like CSK or DC, which would give him the confidence and a more balanced lineup he needs.

2. Nitish Rana

In the IPL 2025, Nitish Rana left KKR to join the Rajasthan Royals, where he flourished in the middle order but was forced into the number three spot.  He didn't make the most of his capacity to anchor and accelerate when necessary.

 Rana can handle the regular middle-order responsibilities and part-time bowling duties that fit his skill set, enabling him to contribute more regularly and confidently to a team like LSG or GT.

3. Akash Madhwal

Because he was only allowed to make a few appearances at RR, Akash Madhwal's potential as a death-over specialist was not realized. With strong leadership, he flourished in the MI franchise. He couldn't show off his variations or develop rhythm without a regular run.

Teams that prioritize specialized positions and have well-defined bowling schemes, such as the Gujarat Titans or Mumbai Indians, could provide him with the match exposure and trust he needs to develop into a reliable fast bowler under pressure.
