| Rajasthan Royals Cricket Team |

 Rajasthan Royals is the franchise that will represent the city of Jaipur in the Indian Premier League. The team will be led and coached by Shane Warne. There is no Icon Player for the team. It is the only IPL team to have a foreign captain and playing coach. The team's mascot is a lion named Moochu Singh. The team anthem, 'Halla Bol', has been sung by Ila Arun. The Rajasthan Royals franchise is owned by Emerging Media group. The group acquired the franchise for $67 million. Rajasthan Royals was the least active franchise during the player auction. The team does not have a designated icon player, which saved a lot of cap space for the franchise. However the franchise was surprisingly low key during the auction, and in the end got penalized by the IPL organizing committee for failing to meet the minimum bidding criteria of $3.3 million.[3]. The highest bid by Rajasthan Royals was for the Indian middle order batsman Mohammad Kaif, who came off the board at $675,000. The Royals are unique as they are the only side to have an English cricketer in their squad, Hampshire's all rounder Dimitry Mascarenhas. |
