Anuj Rawat, a batter, played four IPL seasons for two franchises.

The arrival

Anuj Rawat's first IPL season was 2021, with Rajasthan Royals, a signing made outside the auction.

That first season brought 2 matches.

The peak

The high point with the bat was 2022, for Royal Challengers Bangalore: 129 runs at an average of 16.1, striking at 109.3 in a season when the league as a whole struck at 134.2, with 1 fifty, and a highest score of 66.

Franchise by franchise

2021, Rajasthan Royals. 2 matches.

2022 to 2024, Royal Challengers Bangalore. Bought at the 2022 auction for ₹3.40 cr. 22 matches and 318 runs.

2 spells with two franchises in all. The longest was with Royal Challengers Bangalore, 2022 to 2024.

How the runs came

Across the career, Anuj Rawat struck at 119.6. The league around those same seasons, weighted by how much batting each one involved, struck at 141.0, so Anuj Rawat scored about 21 runs per hundred balls slower than the typical batter of the time. 59% of the runs came in fours and sixes: 26 fours and 14 sixes.

The fielding record: 18 catches and 2 run-outs.

At the auction

Anuj Rawat went under the hammer three times. The highest price was ₹3.40 cr, paid by Royal Challengers Bangalore in 2022, more than 17 times the base price. The market cooled over time: the last purchase, in 2025, cost ₹30 lakh. Being bought did not always mean playing: no match followed for Rajasthan Royals in 2020 and Gujarat Titans in 2025.

Seasons without an auction entry were played under a retention, a trade or a signing made outside the auction.

The legacy

Anuj Rawat made 24 IPL appearances, the last for Royal Challengers Bengaluru in 2024, and won 1 player-of-the-match award.
