Earlier, Rajasthan’s Jofra Archer picked up an injury, and now Stokes has been ruled out of IPL 2021. Because of these developments, the Royals will now be without two star English all-rounders for at least a few more games. 

New captain Sanju Samson tried his best to take the team to the winning line in the IPL 2021 fixture against the Punjab Kings. None of his teammates could support him. Still, he kept going from one end and ended with a century.

The Royals will have to try and sign a replacement soon because of the mandatory quarantine period. The fans of the Jaipur-based franchise await an official update from the team management on Ben Stokes’ injury replacement.
