IPL auction 2026 RR squad: From Ravi Bishnoi to Adam Milne, check complete players list, final bids

Rajasthan Royals had entered the auction with a moderate purse of ₹16.05 crore and nine slots to fill, including one overseas spot. While it is not among the biggest budgets on offer, the franchise already has its core in place after key retentions and smart trade moves, allowing them to approach the auction with clarity and purpose.

With the bidding underway, the Royals are expected to focus sharply on plugging specific gaps rather than making wholesale changes. Their top priority is an Indian spinner, having let go of their previous spin options. Rajasthan are likely to bid aggressively for a proven leg-spinner such as Ravi Bishnoi or Rahul Chahar — someone who can take control through the middle overs and complement Ravindra Jadeja in their bowling attack.

They were also expected to actively chase a reliable Indian seamer and possibly an overseas quick as the auction unfolds. With Jofra Archer coming off a heavy international workload and his injury history still a factor, the Royals are keen to build adequate depth to keep their pace attack sharp and effective across a long season.

The top order, meanwhile, looks well settled, featuring an exciting mix of youth and aggression in Yashasvi Jaiswal, teenage prodigy Vaibhav Suryavanshi, Riyan Parag and Dhruv Jurel. Given the stability at the top, any batting buys are likely to be made purely as cover rather than headline signings.
