Champions of the inaugural IPL season (2008), finalists of the 2013 Champions League T20 and the 2022 IPL season, Rajasthan Royals are a cricket franchise from the state of Rajasthan, India, with the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur being our home ground. At the Royals, our mission is to “Transform Society through Cricket, Transform Cricket through Innovation”. We are a global sports franchise that believes royalty is not something one inherits, but something one earns. It is this spirit that has led the Royals to discover, nurture and promote young and upcoming talent in India and around the world ever since 2008 through our first team, and our endeavours at the Rajasthan Royals Cricket Academy, with five academies across India, the UAE and the UK, and a High-Performance Training Centre in Nagpur. Through our social equity arm, the Royal Rajasthan Foundation, we are also focused on enabling organisations working with empowered women in our home state with grants and mentorship. And through our certified courses at the Royals School of Business - our online education platform - we're on a mission to help aspiring and existing sports professionals take the next step in their dream careers. The Royals are rightly known as a 'team of firsts' for our innovative and pioneering approach, whether through our 'Moneyball' approach in IPL auctions, early adoption of data and analytics, or our innovative approach to the world of digital and business.
