IPL 2026: Rajasthan Royals Skipper Parag Targets Better Planning For Finishing Games
Indian Premier League: Rajasthan Royals captain Riyan Parag said the team’s focus for the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) season would be on planning better and closing out matches, after narrow defeats led to them finishing at ninth place in IPL 2025.
RR lost five matches in chases by margins of 11 runs or fewer, including a Super Over defeat against Delhi Capitals. To solve that issue, they have strengthened their finishing unit with the addition of all-rounders Ravindra Jadeja and Sam Curran, as well as trading in Donovan Ferreira, though he’s recently returned to action after suffering a shoulder injury in this year’s SA20.
“This year, the focus is to plan better and finish games, which we couldn’t do in the previous edition. I feel we have to plan well. Last year, there were about five or six games that we lost in the last over or even on the last ball.
