The Rajasthan Royals, initially the team that received the smallest bid when IPL franchises were auctioned, became the surprise champions in the inaugural season of 2008. Since then, their journey has been marked by ups and downs. The team has made it to the playoffs four times but has also struggled, finishing sixth or lower in seven seasons.

Off the field, Rajasthan Royals have faced significant challenges. In 2010, a legal battle over ownership surfaced, and in 2013, three of their players were arrested on spot-fixing charges. This led to a major investigation, resulting in a two-year suspension of the franchise due to its involvement in illegal betting and match-fixing. Despite these setbacks, the Royals continue to be a significant part of the IPL’s history and culture.
