In a piece of major news coming from the Rajasthan Royals camp, Australian all-rounder Nathan Coulter-Nile, who was picked up by the franchise in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 auction, will miss the rest of the season due to an injury. Coulter-Nile was part of the Royals’ starting XI in their opening match against Sunrisers Hyderabad, where they won comprehensively by 61 runs.
