RR Schedule IPL 2026: Rajasthan Royals begin their IPL 2026 season on March 30 against Chennai Super Kings at 7:30 PM IST in Guwahati. This match is important because it marks the start of a new phase for the team under a new captain.
Riyan Parag has been appointed as captain. He replaces Sanju Samson, who has moved to CSK. Parag had a strong IPL 2024 season where he scored 573 runs. And he is expected to play a key role in the batting lineup.
A major highlight is the arrival of Ravindra Jadeja. He returns to the franchise where he started his IPL career in 2008. Jadeja will strengthen both batting and spin bowling, especially useful on Jaipur pitches alongside Ravi Bishnoi.
There is also an injury setback, as Sam Curran is ruled out with a groin injury. He has been replaced by Dasun Shanaka, who comes in as a batting all-rounder and finisher.
