A former Rajasthan Royals batsman has suggested that the franchise could let go of its leading spin bowler before the 2027 Indian Premier League season, according to Sportscape Magazine.
A former Rajasthan Royals batsman told Sportscape Magazine that the franchise may part ways with its star spinner ahead of the 2027 Indian Premier League. The comment was made as teams begin early assessments of their squads for the next edition of the tournament.
Spin bowling has traditionally been a key asset for the Royals, and any decision to release a leading spinner could reshape their bowling strategy. Analysts note that roster changes often occur well before the IPL auction, allowing franchises to recalibrate their player mix.
The former player, who featured for Rajasthan Royals in earlier seasons, did not name the bowler but emphasized that performance trends and salary considerations are likely driving the speculation. No official statement has been released by the franchise yet.
Rajasthan Royals has historically been tight-lipped about internal roster deliberations, and the final decision will likely emerge closer to the pre‑season player auction scheduled for next year.
