IPL 2018: Biggest weakness of each franchise

#6 Rajasthan Royals- Specialist bowlers

Rajasthan Royals' bowling is heavily dependent on Jaydev Unadkat

With prime batsmen such as Steve Smith, Ajinkya Rahane, D'arcy Short, Ben Stokes, Sanju Samson and Rahul Tripathi in their ranks, the batting is not a concern for the Rajasthan Royals. The bowling could be a concern though, primarily owing to the lack of specialist bowlers in their squad.

The Royals spent a whopping INR 11.5 crores on pacer Jaydev Unadkat. They didn't spend as much on any other specialist bowlers though. The Royals bowling department will have to be handled by all-rounders like Jofra Archer, Ben Stokes and Krishnappa Gowtham, which can prove risky on occasions.
