Rajasthan Royals (RR) is gearing up for the upcoming mega auction on Tuesday, December 16, and the RR team is managing the situation in its typical calm and wise way. The management of RR will implement a very cautious plan since their goal is to recruit players who will be able to integrate nicely into the strong core of the team that has been built over the years.
