Jofra Archer, the England fast bowler, was acquired by Rajasthan Royals (RR) for ₹12.50 crore in the IPL 2025 auction. Archer, who previously played for RR from 2018 to 2020, returned to the team after a stint with Mumbai Indians in IPL 2023. His inclusion in the RR squad is significant, as he brings immense pace and experience to the team's bowling lineup.

Archer's participation in the IPL 2025 auction was initially uncertain due to England's plans for him to focus on the County Championship to prepare for upcoming Test series. However, he was eventually allowed to enter the auction, and his decision to join RR was influenced by the potential financial benefits and the opportunity to prepare for Test cricket through the IPL.

Archer's return to RR is expected to bolster their bowling attack, alongside other key players like Wanindu Hasaranga and Maheesh Theekshana. His ability to deliver high-impact performances makes him a crucial asset for RR in the IPL 2025 season.
