Indian Premier League: Rajasthan Royals (RR) have named Lhuan-dre Pretorius as a replacement for Nitish Rana, who has been ruled out of the remainder of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 due to injury.

The South African, who has played 33 T20s and scored 911 runs with a highest score of 97, will join RR for his base price of Rs 30 Lakh.

Hard-hitting left-hander Pretorius, who can also keep wicket, made his T20 debut last year for Northerns aged just 17 after impressing for South Africa at the Under-19 World Cup.
