The Rajasthan Royals (RR) are gearing up for the upcoming IPL auction with a clear focus on retaining their core players. After making it to the playoffs last season, RR aims to go one step further in 2023.

Several players are expected to be retained through the retention process or the Right to Match (RTM) option during the auction. These include:

* **Sanju Samson:** The captain and key batsman will be a priority for RR.
* **Yashasvi Jaiswal:** The young opener has been a star performer in recent seasons and is expected to continue his journey with the Royals.
* **Jos Buttler:** The explosive English batsman has been a mainstay for RR and is likely to remain a vital part of the team.
* **Sandeep Sharma:** The uncapped bowler could be retained using the uncapped player rule.
* **Riyan Parag:** The promising all-rounder is a sure bet to be retained during the auction.

With these key players set to return, RR is looking to build a strong foundation for a successful campaign in the next IPL season.
