Sanju Samson-led Rajasthan Royals are on the fifth spot of the points table, it will be interesting to see how they begin the second phase of the tournament. 

Senior fast bowler Jaydev Unadkat shared a story on Instagram from the airport before taking the flight to Mumbai. 

The Rajasthan Royals begin their campaign against the Punjab Kings on September 21st in Dubai. 

It is also to be noted that Batsman Riyan Parag believes that, “I think we have a really good shot at making it to the playoffs. We’re placed number fifth on the table, and we’ve got seven more matches to play. Plus, we know the conditions in UAE well from last season.”

Earlier, the Royals team also announced player replacements for their squad. Ben Stokes and Jos Buttler miss out on the second phase of the tournament. Evin Lewis and pacer Oshane Thomas join the squad.
