Rajasthan Royal Challengers as the winners of IPL:
The team won the league in 2008 that was the very first
tournament of IPL, by defeating Chennai Super Kings in the finals by 3 wickets,
thereby they were crowned as champions at the first tournament itself. Though
in the beginning the team was possibly considered as the weakest team but later
through this victory they raised expectations.
Players of the team
Ashok Menaria, Ajinkya Rahane, Brad Hodge, Rahul Dravid,
Owais Shah, Ajit Chandila, Ankeet Chavan, Shane Watson, Stuart Binny, Kevon
Cooper, James Faulkner, Shreevats
Goswami, Dishant Yagnik, Kushal Janith
Perera, Brad Hogg, Shaun Trait, Sreesanth, Siddharth Trivedi, Fidel Edwards, Samuel Badree, Harmeet Singh.
The players for IPL 2013 have already been released by the
team , so it would be too eager to watch that whether the team would restore
its victorious position in IPL 6 with new slots of players or not and whether IPL
6 would bring in some good news for the fans of Rajasthan Royal Challengers or
not.
