Head coach Rahul Dravid is optimistic about the young Indian talent in the Rajasthan Royals, envisioning a future where playing 'tough international cricket' enhances their capability for upcoming IPL seasons. Despite five consecutive defeats, Dravid remains hopeful about the abilities of players like Jaiswal and Riyan Parag.

The Royals' struggles were evident in their recent 10-run defeat against Punjab Kings. Dravid highlighted that while players show initial promise, they often falter in delivering a finishing touch. He urged for a focus on developing experience and closing out matches effectively.

Dravid acknowledged the challenges faced by both batters and bowlers, arguing that extra runs conceded in crucial phases proved costly. By targeting player development throughout the year, he anticipates a more seasoned and formidable team in the next IPL season.
