#4 Rajasthan Royals - Finisher

Rajasthan Royals had a good tournament last season and ended up in fourth place with eight wins and six losses from 14 games. Jos Buttler leads the way with the bat scoring all those consecutive half-centuries to guide his team into the knockouts.
Ajinkya Rahane although couldn’t contribute much with the bat, did well with his captaincy skills that helped his team to reach the top 4.
Rajasthan Royal's main strength has been their bowling which managed to live up to the expectations on many occasions. In a must-win league game against Royal Challengers, it was their bowlers that defended a moderate total of 164 against a strong batting line-up of RCB.
However, they lacked a strong finisher in their line-up, who could propel the scoring rate in the death overs of an innings.
Krishnappa Gowtham won them a couple of games but he lacked support at the other end to finish the game in a couple of occasions. Stuart Binny disappointed again and the unavailability of Ben Stokes cost them the Eliminator game last time around.
Hence the team management would need to look for some strong finishers, which would complete their batting and sort out their major problem.
