Rajasthan Royals, a privately owned entity based in India, was founded in 2008 and employs approximately 180 individuals. The team reported $9.7M in revenue as of 2023. Functioning as a professional franchise cricket team specializing in spectator sports, the Rajasthan Royals are based in Jaipur, Rajasthan, and actively participate in the Indian Premier League.
Rajasthan Royals named Riyan Parag as captain for the 2026 season on February 13, marking a significant internal promotion for the player who originally joined the franchise on a Rs 20 lakh contract. Parag described leading the team, which he considers his IPL home, as "incredibly special," crediting the franchise for its continuous support and his development. The 24-year-old all-rounder officially took over the leadership role for IPL 2026, succeeding Sanju Samson, who was traded to Chennai Super Kings in exchange for Ravindra Jadeja and Sam Curran. This captaincy transition, the first for the team in five seasons, was preceded by an announcement on February 12 that the new leader would be unveiled during a special live event exclusively on the Dream11 app.
