Rajasthan Royals struggled in IPL 2025
Rajasthan Royals had a difficult campaign in the Indian Premier League 2025 as they finished at the 9th spot on the points table with 4 wins and 10 losses from 14 matches. They ended up with 8 points in their bag and a -0.549 NRR.
They went on a five-match losing streak, facing defeats to GT, RCB, DC, LSG, and another loss to RCB. A pattern developed in Rajasthan Royals' losses, as in most of the games, they stayed in the contest for large parts, but couldn’t close out key moments.
