5.Rajasthan Royals
Injuries to important players hampered Rajasthan Royals’ campaign this year. The unavailability of foreign players in the second half is further likely to hamper their chances in the tournament. They currently sit at fifth in the table, having won 3 games in 7 matches.
They already have missed a couple of their overseas cricketers since the start of IPL 2021 and the UAE stint will make things even more worse for the franchise.
Following is the list of players who would be missed in the second half:
Liam Livingstone, Ben Stokes, Jofra Archer, Jos Buttler, Mustafizur Rahman, Andrew Tye
