Win Projections to be updated soon
Former cricketer Varun Aaron analysed their current circumstances and said that Rajasthan has been let down by their middle order. Shimron Hetmyer was a brilliant number five in the past, but since his injury, things have not gone well for the team. The team was also impacted by Jos Buttler’s departure for international duty, as Tom Kohler-Cadmore failed to perform to his full capacity in the team’s most recent game against Punjab Kings.
In the current IPL 2024, the Rajasthan Royals have only lost one of their nine games, making them one of the favourites to place in the top two of the standings. Nevertheless, things quickly turned bad for the Sanju Samson-led team, who now finds themselves in a difficult situation after losing four straight games. Currently, in order to finish in the top two, they must defeat Kolkata Knight Riders in their last league game; failing to do so will force the 2008 winners to play an eliminator.
Varun Aaron said that the team should be concerned and that in order to resume winning, the middle order needs to play better.
“I was worried at first, but I figured it was just a glitch and they will catch it. They need to find a medium ground, so they have good reason to be concerned. The middle order needs to step up and deliver in the pressure games. Varun Aaron stated on ESPNcricinfo TimeOut that they must be concerned about the middle order in particular.

Shane Watson, a former cricket player, also expressed shock at RR’s abrupt downturn. He said that in the first few games, he was unable to identify any of their weaknesses, but in the last few, things had changed. He said that no one was willing to battle Punjab in Guwahati and that the team had lost its impetus.
“I’m shocked at how well the Rajasthan Royals have performed. They had no team vulnerabilities and were flying high. When it was truly necessary, they could just mix and match,” Watson said to JioCinema.

They had definitely lost steam, and it appeared that nobody was willing to fight tonight. As the captain, Sanju Samson expects everyone to be prepared for battle. While Avesh Khan and Riyan Parag performed admirably, everyone else appeared uninteresting. He continued, “This is not the moment to be cynical.
