5 options Rajasthan Royals (RR) have to trim down their squad to 24 players
The Royals are still looking for their second title after winning the inaugural edition in 2008.
3. Mahipal Lomror
A huge fan of Adam Gilchrist‘s explosive style of batting, Mahipal Lomror is a similar left-hander who loves to play his shots without fearing about the situation or opposition bowlers. Although Lomror started out as a specialist batsman, he slowly developed into a handy all-rounder who could bowl efficient left-arm spin. He was a part of India’s U19 setup for the 2016 World Cup.
He was the joint-leading wicket-taker for Rajasthan in the 2017–18 Ranji Trophy, with 13 dismissals in six matches. Like most U19 stars these days, Lomror also landed an IPL contract as the Delhi Daredevils signed him up although he didn’t get a game for them at all and got picked up by the Rajasthan Royals in 2018. Because of his all-round ability, he can be likened to Krunal Pandya.
Unlike most of the players in this list, Lomror has actually played for the Rajasthan Royals earlier. The Nagaur-born all-rounder has featured in 2 games in each of the last two campaigns. Lomror has been a consistent performer in the domestic circuit since his debut and revels in the shorter formats particularly. He will hope to get more chances in the future.
