Joe Root Scoop Shot: It’s the very first time a brand has purchased Root in the bidding. The Royals would be looking to win the title for the second time in their existence with the arrival of the previous England captain.
Joe Root is England’s great hitter. He has begun his training for the Indian Premier League 2023 campaign by hitting the nets for the Rajasthan Royals. In the clip posted by the organization on their social networking sites, the Englishmen performed some magnificent smashes as well as a scoop shot.
Jos Butler, his English partner, came earlier this week. Last season, the Royals made it to the championship thanks to Butler and Yuzvendra Chahal’s efforts. But they were unable to overcome the final barrier in Gujarat Titans to win the title.
The Royals will want to improve on their performance from the previous season by winning the championship this time. As a result, they have maintained their trust in the training team from the previous season.
Kumar Sangakkara will keep on serving as the Rajasthan Royals‘ head of cricket and current coach, with Trevor Penney assisting him, the organization said a few weeks ago.
Rajasthan Royals IPL 2023 Preparation:
Lasith Malinga, another Sri Lankan icon, remains as pace bowling trainer for the franchise, as does Zubin Bharucha as strategy, and growth. And productivity director, Giles Lindsay as head of statistics and technologies. Siddhartha Lahiri as an assistant coach, and Dishant Yagnik as a fielding coach.
Rajasthan Royals will kick off their IPL 2023 season against Sunrisers Hyderabad on April 2 in Hyderabad. In the maiden edition of the IPL, the Royals were proclaimed winners.
The right-handed hitter arrived in Jaipur lately to attend the RR squad. And he has already begun his training for the cash-rich competition. At the team’s most recent practice session, he was spotted playing some magnificent shots.
It’s worth noting that this is Root’s first time playing in the lucrative league. He went untouched during the initial phase of the IPL 2023 bidding. But was eventually snatched up by Rajasthan at his starting price of 1 crore in the game’s final seconds.
His involvement with the Royals might give his T20 journey fresh life as he attempts to reclaim his position in England’s T20I squad.
