While the Royals were one of the most consistent teams in the last few seasons and had qualified for the playoffs, they have struggled with their form this year, right from the start. They began their campaign with two defeats before registering two wins in a row.
With only two wins from eight games, the Sanju Samson-led side is currently languishing at the eighth spot in the points table. Their chances of qualifying for the playoffs are but over. They will have to win all of their remaining six games to stand any chance of finishing in the top four.
Ambati Rayudu slams Rajasthan Royals:
With the Rajasthan Royals struggling this season, Ambati Rayudu has slammed the franchise and questioned their commitment to winning. The Royals have not won the title since winning the inaugural IPL season in 2008. Ambati Rayudu also took a dig at their constant investment in young players, saying that the franchise should focus more on competing.
"You're here to win the IPL, and there are ways teams have adopted to win the IPL, and you don't follow any of those. You have your own path, and you justify it year after year. And you want people to come on board and appreciate you for the good team that you are by giving youngsters all over the world a good opportunity in the IPL," Ambati Rayudu added.
Former South Africa wicketkeeper and Mumbai Indians head coach Mark Boucher also echoed the same sentiments, saying: "Yeah, I just and this goes for any franchise. I don't think that the IPL is a breeding ground for talent. I think it's for a finished product.
"Yeah, I mean you don't, no team will ever come into the IPL thinking, okay well, we've got a team here that I think is gonna do well in the next three years. That's what you go to auction for."
