Winning their first title way back in 2008, Rajasthan Royals (RR) strives hard to win their second-ever title, especially with their big and bold moves of a trade deal, relieving their long-term batting powerhouse, Sanju Samson, for the ever-reliable allrounder, Ravindra Jadeja and youngster Sam Curran from CSK.
While their batting department looks strong, RR might consider adding depth to the line-up by buying a stable batter. However, with some serious loopholes in bowling, they are likely to target spinners as well as a reliable overseas pacer in the 2026 IPL Mini Auction. That being said, here we look at the top three players for RR to target in the forthcoming 2026 IPL Mini Auction.

Prithvi Shaw could be an intriguing pick by the Rajasthan Royals. With Yashasvi Jaiswal and Vaibhav Suryavanshi expected to open, Shaw might be a perfect match at No. 3, especially since Sanju Samson's move to CSK left the spot available.
Shaw's extensive local experience and international exposure prepare him to handle a variety of conditions and bowling attacks. His ability to take on bowlers immediately following the powerplay might offer the team the ideal bridge between the openers and the middle order, bolstering their chances of winning a second IPL crown.
